This image shows Shyam eating from a bowl held by an Animal Rahat staff member.
Old and weary Shyam was welcomed to the Sangli sanctuary.

Shyam has been replaced by a tractor! This elderly fellow, whose horns had been covered with toxic paint, was in desperate need of an advocate for his retirement. Staff persisted with his owner until he agreed to use a tractor instead. But since the owner didn’t have the means to keep the bullock housed and fed, the group took him in. Once he’s out of quarantine at the sanctuary, he’ll no doubt be observing the available social circles before choosing the perfect group of mates to live out his peaceful retirement with.
