The girl was traveling with her pet in Bolivia when the coronavirus pandemic started. The Argentine consulate in that country brought them to the province of Salta, but the animal could not return to its owner until Buenos Aires because the authorities they didn’t let her get on the mike.

Far from abandoning her, April did not get on the bus either and together with a friend they began to ask for help and they asked each car that passed to take them to the nearest town to sleep. But no one helped them. They walked a long time until they returned to the gendarmerie station. There they explained what was happening. Officers said they would have to be detained because they were violating the quarantine and notify the prosecution.

With tears in his eyes and after telling the situation in great detail, one of them told him that take “Zorrita” to her house and take care of her. He ordered to stop the bus -which he had already done 100 kilometers- at the next post and there, April, I can go back to his house.
