Raised by Coy Ellington of Stark county, Buddy the Elf is a 1,000 pound Maine steer who enjoys being scratched on his forehead. His favorite snacks are Twizzlers, and he is a pretty laidback homebody.

Buddy is a fuzzy-eared and energetic steer. He likes a game of hide and seek, and loves a feed bucket.

The RMHC Steer Show is an annual event that celebrates family, community and agriculture by bringing together influential Ohio leaders, 4-H youth and local media personalities in a spirited fundraiser held at the Ohio State Fair.
