Paralytic Cerdita happy to wipe her bed Patricia gets very excited whenever she cleaned his bed. Pigs are the cleanest animals in the sanctuary, never defecate where they sleep and where they eat, so imagine the suffering they have on the farms where they live surrounded by their own excrement.
A tiger becomes friends with a goat An unlikely friendship continued to develop between a rare Amur tiger and a goat that was meant to be his dinner, at Primorski Safari Park in Shkotovski on Saturday. SOT, Dmitri Mezentsev, director of the Primorski Krai Safari Park (In Russian): "The situation is really phenomenal. If I was told that this were possible I would not believe it; but miracles can happen. One of them is in front of you. I am really amazed. But this is a real friendship. He [the tiger] will not eat the goat. If he wanted, he would have eaten him one thousand times." SOT, Dmitri Mezentsev, director of the Primorski Krai Safari Park (In Russian): "The Amur is three years and eight months old. During the three years that he has lived here, he has eaten more than 100 goats, sheep and other animals. He eats them twice a week, and it is fine with him. The thing is that this goat is audaciously brave, and the tiger decided that he will not eat him."
A father and his son recriminate a hunter for killing a deer The kid feels very bad about seeing the dead animal, and the father defends his son. The driver tells them that they probably buy meat on a daily basis at the supermarket to which they nod, then tells them that the meat of the supermarket is from animals that have suffered much more than the deer they just killed (and that they intend to eat), who were born in captivity and unhealthy living conditions. He tells the father that he should explain to his son that this is part of life. And then ... the thing gets a little out of control.
A child leaves a puppy he found in front of a shop October 3, 2018 / Caldas Novas, Goias, Brazil We found a puppy and went to see how he had arrived. The kid found him after school and, knowing that we have a public food and water bowl for stray animals, left him at our door. We support our local rescue group, Socorro Animal Caldas Novas, and called them to take care of the puppy, who have already found a family that adopted him.
Primitive Technology – cultivation and preparation of a Chinese potato I planted a yam in a large basket like enclosure and then 6 months later harvested, cooked and ate it. My previous attempts at growing yams were stymied by wild pigs and scrub turkeys. On learning that yams are in the area, these animals will seek out any tubers planted and eat them. So my solution was to build a large basket like enclosure to protect the growing vine. 13 wooden stakes were hammered into the ground (an odd number being important in any weaving project) and lawyer cane harvested from the forest was woven between these uprights. The basket was about 1 m in diameter and about 75 cm high.

Sweet Mama Dog Feeds Abandoned Kitten Occurred on July 25, 2017 / Lamia, Greece "This morning I went downstairs to take the trash out as I do everyday. When I opened the trash can, I saw a newborn kitten tied inside a bag, hopelessly 'mewing' for help due to some irresponsible being, who had abandoned it there for a tragic death. I took it out and the neighborhood dog that had just given birth kindly let it nurse. Nature fortunately made it so that animals are kinder compared to man."

What humans will look like in 1,000 years There will eventually be a day where prosthetics are no longer just for the disabled. However, it’s not just our outside appearance that will change – our genes will also evolve on microscopic levels to aid our survival. For example, an Oxford-led study discovered a group of HIV-infected children in South Africa living healthy lives. It turns out, they have a built-in defense against HIV that prevents the virus from advancing to AIDS. And with gene-editing tools like CRISPR, we may eventually control our genes and DNA to the point where we make ourselves immune to disease and even reverse the effects of aging. Another way to jump-start the human evolution on a different path is to move some of us to Mars. Mars receives 66% less sunlight than Earth. Which could mean humans on Mars will evolve larger pupils that can absorb more light in order to see. And since Mars’ gravitational pull is only 38% of Earth’s, people born on Mars might actually be taller than anyone on Earth. In space, the fluid that separates our vertebrae expands, which led American aerospace engineer, Robert Zubrin to suggest that Mars’ low gravity could allow the human spine to elongate enough to add a few extra inches to our height. However, not even a move to Mars could spark the biggest change in human evolution that we may have coming in the next 1,000 years: immortality. The path to immortality will likely require humans to download their consciousness into a machine. Right now, scientists in Italy and China are performing head transplants on animals to determine if you can transfer consciousness from one body to another. They claim their next big step is to transplant human heads. Whatever happens in the next 1,000 years — whether we merge with machines or become them — one thing is certain: The human race is always changing — and the faster we change and branch out from Earth, the better chance we have of outrunning extinction.
