Stern is a born Aiderbichler. His mother not only fought for her own life, but also for the life of her still unborn son, when she took her chance to escape. Many Swiss people had contacted Gut Aiderbichl after the story became known and asked for the poor cow to be taken in - because shooting her down was becoming increasingly likely. Hans Wintersteller, an employee of Gut Aiderbichl, set out and after a few days was able to capture the cow and bring her to safety. When all the papers and vaccinations were done, Sächtli was allowed to move in and a few weeks later gave birth to her son Stern.
