Chelsea Ogden and her partner live in their van full-time and travel, seeing beautiful sights and making wonderful memories together. Recently, they’d been staying somewhere in Scotland, where their van had been parked for several days. As they were leaving, they were shocked to find three Highland cows surrounding their van. When they discovered the reason, they quickly took action.
The mama cow was at the front of their van, her head down and her horns on the metal. The young bull stood on the side of the van, while another stood behind it, so they were boxed in and unable to move. It was then that her partner realized the baby calf was nowhere to be found and got out to investigate. With the help of four other men, watch as they bring the little one to safety to rejoin her family.
Chelsea shared in the caption, “They came for help. We were in the right place at the right time.” It’s beautiful that the Highland cows knew that they could trust these kind humans with their precious baby calf!
