A desperate and panicked baby duck in NYC chased pedestrians at Prospect Park. Some ran to shake the little duck off, not realizing he was just a baby looking for help.

Unfortunately, the duck was imprinted and dumped by a human who decided a duck wasn’t a good pet. He can’t fly or fend for himself in the wild.

Rescuers have named him Rudy. He is doing much better now. Abandoning animals in the city comes with a $1,000 fine.

Rest in peace to the voice behind Uncle Iroh, Aku and Master Splinter 🕊️

Remembering Mako, born Makoto Iwamatsu, who passed away 20 years ago this July at the age of 72. A trailblazing Japanese-American actor, voice artist, and theater pioneer, he helped break barriers for Asian performers while creating some of animation’s most unforgettable characters.

His iconic roles and contributions included:
• Uncle Iroh — Avatar: The Last Airbender
• Aku — Samurai Jack
• Master Splinter — TMNT
• Po-Han — The Sand Pebbles
• Akiro — Conan the Barbarian
• The Reciter — Pacific Overtures
• Co-founder of East West Players

Mako brought warmth and wisdom to Uncle Iroh, while his booming, theatrical performance made Aku one of animation’s greatest villains. His emotional rendition of “Leaves from the Vine” remains one of Avatar’s most heartbreaking moments.

Rest in peace, Mako. Your unforgettable voice will live on forever ❤️

Our beautiful eco system and all the innocent wildlife will continue to pay the ultimate price for humanity’s greed. It truly makes me sick to my stomach.

Jo Nagai was raising swallowtail butterflies at his home in Kobe, Japan, when he noticed something odd. The ones he had looked after as caterpillars seemed to recognize him. Wild butterflies fled. His didn't.
He was in second grade. He wrote a four-page letter to Dr. Martha Weiss, an entomologist at Georgetown University who had studied whether moths could retain memories through metamorphosis. He asked if she could help him design a version of her experiment for butterflies.
She said yes.
Using a muscle therapy device, Jo trained caterpillars to associate the scent of lavender with a mild vibration. When the caterpillars became butterflies, 70 per cent of them still avoided the lavender. Their brains had been completely rebuilt during metamorphosis. The memory survived anyway.
Then he bred them.
The offspring, which had never been trained, also avoided lavender. So did their grandchildren. Without ever experiencing the vibration, two generations of butterflies inherited an aversion to a scent their grandmother had been taught to fear.
Jo documented it all in a 33-page research paper and presented his findings at the International Congress of Entomology in Kobe in 2024. He was 10.
A second grader wrote a letter to a Georgetown professor, and together they found evidence that butterflies can pass memories down through generations.

Jimothy as a baby. I read someone say they’d see the mom always helping him climb and learn to balance and now he is a happy healthy adult raccoon 🥹

The way folks are almost required to perform public spectacles of grief and pain so that people don’t forget that the state’s mercenary force executed their loved ones is astonishing.
