The story of the three border collies that were trained to run like the wind to bring new life to Chilean forest devastated by wildfires, wearing backpacks releasing native plant seeds.

One of the worst wildfire season in Chile's history ravaged more than 1.4 million acres early in 2017, destroying nearly 1,500 homes and killing at least 11 people. More than a dozen countries sent fire-fighting specialists to help battle the dozens of destructive blazes. When the fires were finally extinguished, the landscape was a charred wasteland.

A few months later, a unique team was brought in to help restore the damaged ecosystem. They have four legs and a penchant for careening at high speeds through the forest.

Border collies Das, Summer and Olivia were outfitted with special backpacks brimming with seeds. Then they were sent on a mission, let loose to race through the ruined forests. As they bounded and darted, their packs streamed a trickle of seeds. The hope was that these seeds would take root and sprout, bringing the forest slowly back to life one tree at a time.

Their owner, Francisca Torres started the project with the dogs in March 2017, returning regularly to the forest over the next six months.

The border collies covered as many as 18 miles in a day and distributed more than 20 pounds of seeds. Their hard work paid off.

I'm rarely starstruck by museum exhibits, but these are the *actual* toys owned by Christopher Robin, which inspired Winnie-the-Pooh.

Thanks to the team at the New York Public Library for taking such good care of them.

I hate doing this, but I am desperate for sales, as currently a few hundred pounds short of being able to cover my bills this month.
Please, if you’ve ever thought about buying from me, now would be a great time. Even if all you can do is retweet this, I’d be so grateful (1/2)

This is one of the most profound videos I’ve filmed since the rise of Trump. I asked him why he was there. Tears rolled down his cheeks. His father who was a WWII veteran (like my dad) told him “We gotta stop this guy”. He was a squadron commander and he lost 110 men and he never got a scratch. And he lived his whole life trying to be worthy of their sacrifice. And he asked me to do the same. So this is a very small thing to do. But why everyone in the country isn’t doing this and trying to understand what this man is doing to our country. I don’t get it. But everybody needs to do something to stop this guy” Please listen to every single word and share. #TrumpArraignment #Truth

Republicans are so flabbergasted over their inability to connect with young voters it’s almost comical. You wanna know why they hate you and upwards of 90% of them will never vote for you @GOP? I’ll break it down for you (Thread)

Thick frost and a slight fog this morning.

If you’re trying to adopt and get turned down, please don’t give up. Talk to rescuers abroad. There are millions of amazing dogs out there, desperate for someone to love them. They will show you what unconditional love is ☺️🙏🏼💚🐶💚 #AdoptDontShop #dogsarefamily #DogsOnTwitter

@KFILE Weak glutes and tight hip flexors lead to an internal rotation of the femur, causes a valgus position of the knee, tibial internal rotation, and ultimately excessive pronation which loads the plantar fascia. It’s all connected and cycling is prob loosening your hips…

Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited Bucha today. His face says it all.

Read this story till the end. During WWII some children were making diaries from concentration camps & occupied cities by nazis. History is repeating. This is a diary of Katya, a 16 years old girl from Mariupol, whose mother died in the basement👇😢

No kid was ever killed in school by a book.

You should not be banning books.

You should be banning AR-15s and other assault rifles.

No, not all of us have had covid.
No, not all of us are resigned to getting it.
No, not all of us are expecting a 'mild' disease course if we do get covid.

Please, leave space for different expectations and experiences in this current stage of the pandemic.
