Taipei, Aug. 9 (CNA) After spending much of her 22 years plowing fields on Green Island off eastern Taiwan, an aging water buffalo has been given a chance to rest at a retirement center in Yunlin County after being bought and relocated by an animal lover. "Her condition is OK," he said, adding that water buffalo can live for around 30 years and White Dolphin, who has given birth three times, is already considered elderly. White Dolphin enjoys a mud bath at a retirement center in Yunlin County following her arrival last Thursday. Lin began rescuing aging water buffalo in 2019 and formally established the center in 2022. Although machines have largely taken over their work, Taiwan's farming communities once depended heavily on water buffalo, he said.
