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: give.wildlifesos.org/page/18…

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. #WildlifeConservation #LittleOwl #fblifestyle #SustainableFarming #Biodiversity #fypシ #fypシ゚viral #NatureInnovation #animals

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.

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! Learn more about the homecoming and Kihari, our newest orphan-turned-mum: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/n…

Role model.
He gave away more than eight billion dollars & died with practically nothing to his name. This is the extraordinary story of Chuck Feeney, a man who could have lived in palaces but chose a simple rented apartment and a $15 plastic watch. Feeney built his fortune by co-founding Duty Free Shoppers, the empire of airport luxury retail that made billions. The money poured in but Feeney stayed out of the spotlight. Starting in the 1980s, he quietly transferred nearly all of his wealth to The Atlantic Philanthropies. Through it, he funded universities, hospitals, medical research, and public health initiatives in over 30 countries, always anonymously. No buildings bore his name. No press conferences announced his gifts. Most of the people & programs he saved never knew who their benefactor was. When his secret finally came out, Warren Buffett declared him “my hero” & the ultimate role model for philanthropy. Buffett admired not how much Feeney had earned, but that he gave it all away while he was still alive. Feeney saw wealth not as something to hoard or display, but as a resource held in temporary trust. His philosophy was simple. “Giving While Living.” By 2020, he had achieved his goal & shut down his foundation after distributing the last of its assets, leaving himself about $2 million for retirement. Chuck Feeney passed away in 2023 at age 92 with a personal net worth close to zero, exactly as he had planned. He didn’t die rich in money, but he died extraordinarily rich in impact. Millions of people studied, were healed & lived better lives because of his quiet generosity. In a world that celebrates loud success & flashy legacies, Chuck Feeney showed that the most profound greatness often leaves behind almost no noise at all. ❤️

She was a sweetheart, along with all of the dogs who attended the 15th year celebration!
Georgia was adopted out 14 1/2 years ago after being rescued from Riverside shelter. She’s amazing and we were so happy to catch up with her at our 15 year celebration. 🩷🐾

Well Done Spain. Pets are now legally considered family, not property. This groundbreaking change means animals will finally have legal protection in cases of abuse, divorce, and loss. Every paw deserves this love, respect, and recognition.

Excited to spread the awareness and love of @LovebugsRescue by wearing the white one while walking my rescues.
It only took us 15 years to make a Lovebugs hat. Okay so we've been a little busy rescuing dogs. But we are super excited (it's the little things) to add this to our apparel line. We are going to be giving these away at our event this Sunday! Which one do you like better?

Such a sweetheart! Saw him today at @LovebugsRescue 15 year celebration. True love!

Wish I didn’t have a college counselor limiting my awareness and options. In another life …
And on this note I shall bid you goodnight. And good night to these little ones, who’ll be safe tonight. These orphan Rhinos have a human companion at night. 🎦 Credit: @LewaConservancy.
