The St. Louis Six Rescue

- Six cows escaped a slaughterhouse and ran through the streets of St. Louis trying to find their way home. They were finally rounded up by authorities and sent back to the slaughterhouse, but the community was outraged, started a public campaign for their freedom, and reached out to The Gentle Barn. The Gentle Barn was given 24 hours to save their lives and find them a new home.
In honor of their 2nd year anniversary, we're pleased to release The St. Louis Six, a short film documenting their harrowing escape, rescue, and homecoming.
Thank you all for watching. Please consider sponsoring one of the St. Louis Six at www.gentlebarn.org/animals/?type=cow&loc=mo
pro trick: you can watch series at flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.
@Dillon Ryan Definitely, have been using Flixzone for months myself :)

But I can use that money to buy another prime rib steak.
So glad Gentle Barn rescued these cows. Made me cry when Spirit died. So glad you are honoring Spirit's memory with a pond and new Gentle barn. I love cows. They are sweet loving animals.
I agree Cow Person I love cows too and they are fluffy puppy dogs to me!.
I just visited them they’re doing good
I cried my eyes out. I hate the meat industry.
But I thank EVERY person that had a hand in helping these beautiful creatures get out of that slaughterhouse hell hole
Thanks Gentle Barn Team for compassionately opening your doors to these babies. There is a place in heaven for you 😘
This video is beautiful and heartbreaking. Rest In Peace to the millions of animals who die everyday because of humans💔
I love this happy ending for the St. Louis Six, sad that there are millions more in that poor position. When are we going to stop this...
It pisses me off that people will fight so hard to save the animals that they see fighting for their lives but ignore the others who they hear about. At the same time though, it gives me hope. When people see what’s going on, they want the animals to live.
Julia Crawford I think about the same thing. The world is changing though. It’s never been a better time to be 🌱💚💚💚
Anna Eagland The cognitive dissonance never fails to surprise me. Even I had it at one point.
If slaughterhouses had glass walls, we would all be veg! That’s a real thing! Out of sight out of mind. This rescue and our opening in St. Louis gives these blessed people the opportunity to see and do the right thing. Thank you for supporting our work. People are changing everyday!
gentlebarn I love that quote. I also love the quote “as long as there are slaughterhouses, there will be war.” Or something along that line.
There are other places and people who rescue factory farm animals etc, it's just not always publicized though. I've had a cook book for years from a sanctuary out west etc... This is a pretty historic event that these six at once escaped so it made the news. There was a cow who escaped to find her baby and did somewhere else, yet thankfully the town let them stay together. There are also vigils at slaughterhouses... I just heard even John Nettles the actor has some horses and a donkey saved from becoming dog food on a Midsomer Murders youtube chat for a episode (no press about it though)....and that whole avenue of rescuing dogs and cats from Asia is a big thing too..
But I can understand what your saying... there are so many - all of them want to live I'm sure..... I wonder if the factories were just bought out these...places where animals die.... the owners would just take the money and run? I think it's all about money perhaps...there was a guy in Asia who bought out a to be killed truck of dogs and rescued them I read.....and then of course create more plant based meats for people to replace meat/ protein alternatives (I don't eat meat, I don't think faux meat reminds of me meat at all actually aside from the slight resemblance, but you can tell it's not a dead animal outright to me, I know there's mixed opinions on this- I'm really sensitive to meat cooking and to me it also smells different, tastes different- same with the faux chesses, I can taste the lack of lactose, which I'm also allergic too- all in all it tastes a lot cleaner - I never really liked meat as a kid nor the smell of it...and it provides solid protein sources for newbe or an older vegan who wants some concise protein..so I think it's good that it's out there...but I also do like beans and non meat related plant protein even sprouts/ lots of greens and you can mix all sorts of plant foods together two or three at a time to create a complete amino acid protein....)
so anyway... I can understand wanting to live! Those babies were really smart to figure out what was going, or I don't know...These lovely beings need much more of a voice and protection-
how this all got started in the first place I will never understand. If I was a new human and stumbled across bunnies, cows, etc I would never think lets kill this, and all that process to eat it ... the process alone would deter me... I think of animals as friends..
But I do want to get what it will take for this to stop! It's in the early stages...but I hope the process happens faster and faster-
but we are a long way from when everyone was in the dark about this....It's moving towards an age of animal wellness...
though you'd think cruelty would just be illegal period... at least the Native Americans honored the animals, and some places are a lot less cruel too... but I just don't like killing in general personally. I catch bugs and release them....
These bulls are angels sent to wake people up perhaps!
How tragic is the fact that the most gentle of creatures have NO LAWS protecting them against slaughter and torture.
Its time that the Human Rights Manifest is re-written and equal animals rights are included therein.
I dont know how to thank The Gentlebarn for opening their doors to the St. Louis six. Yes Spirit died, but at his his death he was not alone and fearful in a slaughter house. He was surrounded by love and compassion when he breathed his last breath. I am so thankful for that, that his last days on earth were even though painful it was peaceful.
Thank you from FRANCE! You’re wonderful!🙏🏽🌸 I cried all along the video for all the pain I know they’ve been through, and for the others that didn’t had a chance to escape. Going vegan for them was one of my life’s best decision, and I wish everyone to open their eyes and heart soon on animals sad and cruel living conditions for our consumption. Go vegan for them 🌱🐮💜
I cried like a baby. Thank you Gentle farm for the rescue of these cows. Things like this make me want to quit eating meat. Poor conditions those animals live in and all the sickness that is running through them is enough to make me think twice about my meat consumption.
It was videos like this (& very traumatizing slaughterhouse footage) that made me instantly go vegetarian and then later vegan. Best damn decision I ever made, hands down! You sound like an intelligent, caring person and I wish you the best of luck if meat-free is the path you choose! ❤️
I cried through this whole video....for many reasons. Thank you and a God bless you for what you do.❤️
Wow. Thank you so much for everything. How heartbreaking that sweet Spirit died. The only comfort is that he knew your love before and while he transitioned.
Thank you St. LOUIS SIX you made me realize how precious All LIFE is and DESERVES to be Loved and Live happy. ❤❤❤
That story makes me cry every time. Spirit was so beautiful. I think those cows also gave you experience for the cows to come. I think you and Jay do incredible work for this animals.
I just love the story! I wish they could all be saved. Open your heart and mind and see animals for their true value. Thank you Gentle Barn!
Devastating that Spirit, who fought so hard for his freedom, didn't have a chance to truly experience life beyond the slaughterhouse.
Thank you to GentleBarn for all that you do and for saving the ones that you can. I hope you mission continues to inspire compassion and inspire more people to open rescues to help the most abused group on the planet - animals used for food.
I'm crying watching this again after 2yrs
Cried through the entire video. Thank You for what you guys do each day! RIP Spirit. ❤ It was hard to watch them get treated so poorly in their "effort to corral" them. 😭 One day i will meet you! One day i will cuddle a cow(my favorite animal). One day... 💜
Ashley Robertson thank you for your comment. I think about Spirit every day. It sucks to have to work with people who are aggressive like they were, but I’d do it again to save their lives. Hope you come for a visit sometime soon.
Writing through tears. So touching. Thank you.
Thank you Gentle Barn. We love you!!! 🐾💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Taking my mom to the gentle barn for Mother’s Day I’m so excited to hug some animals 😭😍
Have fun ❤️❤️❤️ what a great day it’s going to be for you and your Mom.
Truly the best qualities of humanity helping these poor frightened babies. I hope one day the rest of humanity will be able to see that animals have feelings and they are being tortured for our convenience
As a St. Louis native, I’m so glad you’re here!
Thank you for coming to the rescue of these amazing animals.
Thank God for the Gentle Barn.............
So beautiful 🥺 Thank you for everything you do for these amazing cows and animals ❤
Spirit would've been so happy with his new life. I hope his next journey is one without suffering.
sooooo happy they made it....thank you and thank You God
hallelujah God bless you. Thank you for saving these precious animals.!❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have watched this rescue several times, and every time I see it, I sob for their terror and loss, but then cry tears of joy for their final return to home...they carry Spirit with them and to all of the people whose lives are changed because of their path and Gentle Barn's Mission! Love this more than words!
Thanks for the angles again ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
You all are such beautiful humans, thank you for all you do ❤️
While so thankful for your ability to save five, I can't help but mourn the death of the one. It was heartbreaking to see the officer's hitting him with his cruiser. Many of us are still pondering his injuries and asking what it was about them that prevented his being saved. We are, nonetheless, so thankful that citizens thought to reach out to Gentle Barn for help and your being able to respond. Take care.
You are the greatest people in the world !!!! I love you so much !!! Thank you !!!
I was crying the whole entire time watching this video, thank you so much gentle barn for saving those babies!!! 🤗💞
I am bawling my eyes out. Thank you for being an example of how to love and care for animals. This is what the world needs. I hope I can visit someday.
Thank you, Gentle Barn!

Thank you Ellie and Jay for all the hard work you and your Gentle Barn family do to help keep these poor animals safe. I've been to your Gentle Barn in Tn. and plan on going to the one in Missouri.

By saving these creatures you also save the humans and the planet.
Those eyes OMG I just can't..
Hopefully these guys (who are still alive today) will grow up as bulls and their legend will continue to make its mark.
Lovely time
Spirit died free and not on a slaughter line that's what matters
Never discount the power of one phone call.
Always make that call to News outlets, the Police, and elected officials. 📢
❤️❤️❤️🌱👍
That's wonderful
I’m going to visit the Gentle Barn soon. ❤️
Here from TikTok ❤️
Rest In Peace Spirit. 🕯
❤️
#Respect
Look at 'em run out of the trailer!!! XOXOO
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
When you've been a victim a hate/discrimination / violence... you do not wish that on ANY Living thing the rest of your life. Ive gone Vegan..I do not want ANY of The God of Abraham's creations to suffer.. Im glad this Cows are safe and that there are other people out there that care.
God bless you 💖 🙏 ❤ 🙌.
