Ivanhoe, the lucky one Right from the start, Ivanhoe had a lucky fairy: an animal-loving woman. She bought him free to spare Ivanhoe the typical life of a bull calf: being slaughtered after fattening. Ivanhoe became a big ox and had to change farms again and again until he found safe shelter and a forever home at Gut Aiderbichl in Iffeldorf. Here he lives with his best friend Flecki, whom he brought with him.
