No one wants to be bullied—including bulls. That’s the message that Sanjay the animated bull delivered to 700 students and 43 teachers this month in Animal Rahat’s video, “A Bull’s Life,” which teaches young people to see that these animals are individuals with needs and desires just like their own. These young learners are impacting their communities, informing others that nose ropes and spikes placed on yokes hurt the bulls and that bulls love filling meals, water, rest, and kindness as much as they do. They also inspire friends and neighbors to celebrate a firework-free Diwali, lessening the stress of the holiday for all species, with 100 schools in 2024 promising to make the holiday festive for everyone by buying books and sweets for those without, instead of frightening noisemakers.
