.After he's been brought up to speed medically, Buddy will then be on his way down to Florida (You say?) He's headed to Critter Creek Farm Sanctuary in Gainesville, Florida, where he will hopefully spend the rest of his years thinking about that cool Connecticut fall and winter when he was able to roam free and give no F's about the chumps chasing him with the rope and tranquilizer gun.

The Plymouth Police Department then go on to thank everyone for their donations, and well wishes throughout this fun saga.

Good luck Buddy, you were a fun Beefalo to keep an eye on, I hope you are happy in the warm Florida sunshine.
