  • The Dodo's Executive Producer Joanna Zelman took a road trip with a piglet and a calf 4 years ago. It was one of our favorite stories ever, so we checked back in on them to see if it lasted... ❤️
    Special thank you to everyone who shared their story with us!

Thank you for covering this story, it's so important to constantly remind people that animals FEEL all the emotions we do - sorrow, frustration, joy, etc. They deserve our respect. And thank you to all the animal sanctuaries for the endless work they do to provide safety and love to their resident animals ❤

    Double plot twist: apparently, she has a husband. This is going to be made into a movie. Suggestions for actors: Gal Gadot for the female lead; Brad Pitt for the male lead and Ed O'Neil for the home-alone husband?

    The only sad part of this is that they didn't manage to get the mum too. Nonetheless a beautiful outcome for these lovely creatures. Thank you to all involved in their rescue.
