For 13 thousand dollars, Englishman Brandon Grimshaw bought a tiny uninhabited island in the Seychelles and moved there forever. When the Englishman Brandon Grimshaw was under forty, he quit his job as a newspaper editor and started a new life.
By this time, no human had set foot on the island for 50 years. As befits a real Robinson, Brandon found himself a companion from among the natives. His Friday name was René Lafortin. Together with Rene, Brandon began to equip his new home. While René came to the island only occasionally, Brandon lived on it for decades, never leaving. By oneself.
For 39 years, Grimshaw and Lafortin planted 16 thousand trees with their own hands and built almost 5 kilometers of paths. In 2007, Rene Lafortin died, and Brandon was left all alone on the island.
He was 81 years old. He attracted 2,000 new bird species to the island and introduced more than a hundred giant tortoises, which in the rest of the world (including the Seychelles) were already on the verge of extinction. Thanks to Grimshaw's efforts, the once deserted island now hosts two-thirds of the Seychelles' fauna. An abandoned piece of land has turned into a real paradise.
A few years ago, the prince of Saudi Arabia offered Brandon Grimshaw $50 million for the island, but Robinson refused. “I don’t want the island to become a favorite vacation spot for the rich. Better let it be a national park that everyone can enjoy.”
And he achieved that in 2008 the island was indeed declared a national park.

A former potato farm on WA's south coast was bought by environmentalists in 2023 and flooded to create the Eungedup Wetlands for rare & endangered birds.

More than 100 species of birds have been seen in the area in the years since.

Many will not believe that just three years ago, this farmland was completely degraded. Today? It’s a thriving ecosystem.
Our secret weapon? Combining contour ploughing with corn and beans coexisting in high volume. Here is how we did it: 👇🧵

We enjoyed the gentle sunshine this morning, I love gentle sunshine 🌸
Everything was so blue & so green
We listened to the moorhen young
Blue tits were like little acrobats
And we heard a squirrel leaping

Blind dogs rock, teach you so much

The Dream: At the end of a gruelling and exhaustive day pulling carriages in NYC the horses spend their ‘downtime’ in acres of lush fields.

The Reality: The horses ‘relax’ in a multi story concrete block. No grazing or fresh air! 😢

End the horrific NYC carriage ‘industry’ NOW! 🚫

Maybe they should play the game in a cemetery - that’s where most of the Palestinian players are now, even the future ones. 🥺

People always ask me about my own dog Hank the Tank and what his story was.

This is how I found him. A huge hole in his neck full of maggots and owners who didn’t want him.

Their loss if you ask me ❤️

BREAKING! Australia will now investigate Israel over Assaults.
(From the West Report youtube channel.)
Free #Australia from genocidal #Israel. #FreePalestine
The AFP will not properly investigate. Israel will not cooperate with the investigation or hand over evidence.

#ThoughtForTheDay

Most people drove past the small animal without a second glance.

One chilly evening in the fall of 2024, a homeowner noticed an injured opossum sitting near the edge of a neighborhood road. The little animal looked exhausted and frightened, barely moving as cars passed by. At first, many assumed it was dangerous or sick. But a closer look revealed a scared creature simply trying to survive.

The homeowner contacted a local wildlife rehabilitator, who safely transported the opossum for care. After a health check, rescuers discovered that the animal was dehydrated and recovering from minor injuries. With food, water, and a quiet place to rest, the shy visitor slowly regained its strength.

During its recovery, the rehabilitator shared something many people never realize. Opossums are peaceful animals that help nature in important ways. They eat insects, clean up carrion, and help keep ecosystems healthy, all while asking for very little in return.

A few weeks later, the opossum was released back into the wild. Watching it disappear into the trees, the rescuer was reminded that some of nature's most valuable helpers are also the most misunderstood.

Sometimes all it takes is one person willing to stop, look a little closer, and give an animal a second chance.

Raising young orphaned elephants requires extraordinary commitment. Every step of the way, we are by their sides – from milk‑bottle feeds to night‑time cuddles, and first mud baths to graduating to one of our Reintegration Units. And it requires donors like you, who adopt and become a part of our foster family, ensuring we can guide these babies back to a wild life.

Become one of our foster parents today and adopt an orphan in our care: https://t.co/k3y1t6RCeK
