Woman Best Friends With Giant Bull After It Escaped Slaughterhouse

A woman snuggles with a giant bull, after they became friends when she rescued him after he escaped a slaughterhouse. Patricia Andrade Varela Favano regularly sunbathes with Hanuman the bull, pets him and even kisses him on the nose, such is their close bond. The pair have become almost inseparable at their ranch in Brazil, where Patricia cares for many rescued animals. The bull - a Nelore, known for their incredible strength - had escaped from an illegal slaughterhouse by smashing its way through the makeshift walls. But after running amok on the streets of the local town, villagers and slaughterhouse workers were keen to lynch the stricken beast. Thankfully for Hanuman, local police officers sought the help of Patricia - a known local animal shelter owner - to help them calm the bull down. Hanuman had refused tone approached by anyone, lashing out wildly as they inched near. But with Patricia, he eventually calmed down and police officers allowed her to take him back to her sanctuary, where she cared for him.
