As you may know, cows and pigs aren't the only farm animals that end up on someone's plate; horses, sheep, goats, and apparently mules are also in high demand.

TikToker @harmonrazzano, who owns a sanctuary, rescued two mule brothers named Onyx and Obsidian, separately, from the meat industry, as she posted on November 14, and now they are being reunited for the first time in two months. Let's find out more!

It's always heartwarming to hear stories of animals getting a second chance at happiness, especially when they've been rescued from challenging situations like the meat industry.

These stories often highlight the resilience and capacity for joy in animals when given the opportunity to live in a more compassionate environment.

Mules, being hybrids of donkeys and horses, are intelligent and social animals, and they can form strong bonds with humans and other animals.

Look at how excited Onyx is to see his brother Obsidian! He comes running to the fence to greet him!

Rescue organizations and sanctuaries play a crucial role in providing a safe haven for animals that have been saved from various industries, including those raised for meat production. These sanctuaries focus on giving the animals a chance to experience a life free from exploitation, cruelty, and the harsh conditions they may have endured.

These two were teammates their entire lives and worked hard in the fields before they were about to be shipped to the slaughterhouse.

In a sanctuary setting, they can finally enjoy open spaces, proper nutrition, veterinary care, and the freedom to express natural behaviors.

Look at how they greet each other by touching their noses as if Onyx were communicating with Obsidian, telling him he's safe now.

We're happy to see they're saved and being reunited!
