calf born with cross-shaped marking to be spared from slaughter

A calf born last week in Connecticut is getting a lot of attention for his unusual forehead marking: a cross that's been immortalized in "holy cow!" and "sacred calf" headlines from news organizations all over the world. (You'll notice, if you please, that we've spared you that cutesy headline-writing here.)

The calf, a Jersey-Holstein cross whom neighborhood children have named Moses, probably has a much better life in store for him than that which awaits most male calves on dairy farms. Because they don't produce milk, male calves' fates typically lie in a slaughterhouse.
