@NiallHarbison It would probably be helpful to many people around the world if you would share what medicines you use to help with those skin diseases. It is amazing to see the transformation, and so many animals around the world need the help.

He made it home! #VeerTheUnbroken
After a difficult rescue and a long journey to safety, Veer is finally home at our Elephant Hospital Campus (EHC), surrounded by veterinarians, caregivers, and the quiet care he has never known before.
Poached as a calf and forced into a life of begging, the 26-year-old tusker has only known cruelty and neglect. Under the bright hospital lights, we noticed how he has the most beautiful, butter-coloured eyes, full of curiosity, inspecting everything surrounding him, with so much patience.
Now the real work begins. Healing his injured body. Rebuilding his strength. Restoring his confidence. Giving him back the dignity he was denied. This will take extensive medical care, long-term treatment, expert oversight and endless patience and love.
Your support can help carry Veer from survival to true recovery. Become a monthly supporter and be part of his lifelong journey toward healing, safety, and the peaceful life he deserves: https://t.co/VqvFwW8iaS
UNE TUILE QUI REDONNE LEUR FOYER AUX CHEVÊCHES D'ATHÉNA
Dans l'Espagne rurale, un design ingénieux aide des milliers d'oiseaux nocturnes à récupérer ce que la construction moderne leur a discrètement enlevé.
La Chevêche d'Athéna nichait autrefois dans les vieux murs de pierre et les fermes traditionnelles. Mais avec la modernisation de l'architecture rurale, ces cavités naturelles ont disparu — laissant ces petits chasseurs sans abri.
Alors les conservationnistes du Grup de Naturalistes d'Osona et du Grup de Natura Sterna ont conçu quelque chose de brillant.
Ils ont créé la Teula Mussolera — une tuile d'argile modifiée qui fait office de nichoir high-tech.
Voici pourquoi ça marche :
• Elle ressemble exactement à la toiture espagnole traditionnelle — préservant la beauté des maisons rurales.
• Son tunnel interne est à l'épreuve des prédateurs et thermiquement stable, protégeant les poussins de la chaleur et des chasseurs.
• Elle permet aux chouettes de vivre aux côtés des humains pendant que les villages s'étendent.
Et voici la partie la plus intelligente…
Ce n'est pas de la charité. C'est un partenariat.
La Chevêche d'Athéna est un contrôleur naturel d'élite des nuisibles — chassant des milliers d'insectes et de rongeurs chaque année. Les agriculteurs qui installent ces tuiles n'aident pas seulement la faune sauvage… ils recrutent une équipe de sécurité silencieuse et emplumée qui réduit le besoin de pesticides chimiques.
Parfois la conservation ne consiste pas à séparer les humains et la nature.
Il s'agit de concevoir un moyen de prospérer ensemble.

At a quiet wildlife sanctuary in Missouri, something happened that left grown men wiping their eyes and caretakers standing still in disbelief.
Murphy was a bald eagle who could no longer fly. An old injury had taken the sky from him, and he lived out his days on the ground while other eagles soared overhead. For years, visitors passed by his enclosure, admiring his sharp eyes and powerful wings that would never again lift him into the air.
Then one spring morning in 2023, the keepers noticed something strange.
Murphy began gathering twigs.
Not randomly. Carefully. One by one, he arranged them just like a wild eagle would high in the treetops. He shaped a nest on the ground with the same care any proud parent would show. Soon, he settled into it, lowering his body gently, as if guarding something precious.
But there was no egg.
What he was protecting was a rock.
A simple, cold stone.
And yet Murphy treated it like his own flesh and blood.
He sat over it for hours, barely moving. He flared his wings when other eagles came too close. He stared down anything that dared approach his nest. To him, that rock was life. To him, it mattered.
The staff watched in silence. It was tender and it was painful all at once. A bird who could not fly still carried the fire of a father, even when nature had given him nothing to raise.
Then, by chance, an orphaned eaglet arrived at the sanctuary.
Too young to survive alone. Hungry. Weak. A tiny bundle of feathers that needed a miracle.
And someone remembered Murphy.
If he could love a rock with that kind of fierce devotion, what might he do for a living, breathing chick.
With steady hands and held breath, the caretakers made a quiet decision. They removed the rock from Murphy’s nest and gently placed the eaglet in its place.
What happened next is the kind of thing that stays with you for life.
Murphy looked down. He leaned closer. He studied the small, trembling body beneath him.
Then he spread his wings.
He pulled the eaglet close and covered it as if he had been waiting his whole life for that moment. No hesitation. No confusion. Just acceptance.
From that day on, Murphy fed the chick, guarded it, and warmed it through cold nights. A bird who would never touch the clouds again was giving another eagle the chance to one day rule them.
Visitors began stopping longer at his enclosure. Some cried. Some stood quietly with hands over their mouths. Here was a creature broken by fate, still choosing love without question.
Murphy taught something we all forget in hard times.
That being strong does not always mean flying high.
Sometimes it means staying grounded and still opening your heart.
He never knew that rock was not an egg.
And he never cared that the chick was not his by blood.
All he knew was that something needed him.
And he was ready.
Even a grounded eagle can rise, not with wings, but with love.
Dear @NobelPrize,
Please consider awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to the Buddhist monks who completed a remarkable peace march of more than 2,300 miles across the United States, demonstrating an extraordinary commitment to nonviolence and global harmony.
@Muttville Your gorgeous and cleverly detailed newsletter arrived yesterday! Fun reading about what a difference everyone is making. Incredible to see the seniors coming for cuddles stats! Well done @Muttville!
3 rescues that are all family:
Left- Sweet Mama - fostered her and her 3 pups for @bestfriends shelter rescue. Her pups found homes, and she chose to stay with me.
Right - Zayne - shelter rescue.
Hiding under my desk - Sammy - adopted from a rescue after he was found living among rocks.
Beautiful best fur family ever!
Phenomenal testament to the dedication, love, and care that they know you have all so generously and lovingly provided for them for decades. You all earned that moment! Thank you for sharing!
Voi just witnessed the most glorious homecoming, as long-absent ex-orphans – some of whom hadn’t visited for several years – returned to debut two new babies.
You met Panda’s baby, Panya, in our previous post. In the lead here is her partner-in-crime, Kihari, and her brand new baby, Kiki! After spending the morning with us, she led the group out into the bush in a lovely slow walk, so we could admire the ever-growing family born to our Orphans’ Project.
We’re never quite sure how they get the message out, but somehow everyone knew to gather on this specific morning for the most wonderful reunion. In total, we had 54 orphans, ex-orphans, and wild-born babies!
