Eli was born on a small, family-owned dairy farm in Vermont. Like all males in the dairy industry, he was considered "useless" and bound for slaughter shortly after birth.
Marley was born on a factory farm. At about a week and a half of age, she was put on a transport truck, destined for a "nursery" and "finishing farm," at which she would be fattened for slaughter. However, she wanted to live, and she jumped off the transport truck.
Eli and Marley were transported to Critter Creek together. On the ride, they formed a bond that has persisted, and the two now form each other's chosen family.
