Escaped cattle find sanctuary after dramatic St Louis chase
Six steers that fled from Star Packing Co in north St Louis last week were moved to a farm and will head to The Gentle Barn sanctuary in Tennessee. The herd, including Chico, dodged police and endured a five hour pursuit before transfer to a rural facility. The Gentle Barn plans a Tennessee property or new sanctuary site to shelter the steers for years, with fundraising exceeding $16,500 to aid their rescue and transport.
