It was a normal working day, but suddenly one bull waiting in line fell to his knees and began to cry! “People think animals don't cry, but this bull was crying like a baby,” Billy Fong told the press. There were about ten people there, all butchers who made their living by slaughtering cattle. And tears flowed from their eyes.
They were so moved by the incident that they ransomed the bull and handed it over to a Buddhist temple, where he will calmly live to the end of his days.
This extraordinary story of a crying bull took place while slaughterhouse workers were dragging this large animal towards the slaughterhouse. As they neared their destination, the bull suddenly lowered its front legs to the ground, and tears rolled from its eyes. “When I saw the bull crying with sadness and fear in his eyes, I started to shake,” said the butcher. “I called other workers, and they were also very surprised. We began to drag and push the bull, but he absolutely did not want to move. He just sat and cried.
The hairs on my body stood on end because this animal behaved like a human. We looked at each other, and it became clear to everyone that none of those present could raise a hand against this bull. We had to decide what to do with it. After consulting, they decided to raise money and send the bull to live out its life in the company of Buddhist priests who have nothing against bulls. “We couldn't budge him until we promised that we would keep him alive. Only after that did he get up and go with us. Believe it or not, this is true, although it sounds a little weird. It seemed that this large animal understood our every word,”said Tat Nin.
Some of the slaughterhouse workers did not survive the incident. Fong said, “The three workers quit their jobs immediately after this incident. They said that they would never kill animals again in their lives, because they would never forget how tears rolled down the bull's face from the big sad eyes.
