After almost going extinct, blue whales are gradually making a comeback to African waters.
Despite being the largest mammals ever discovered, scientists have only seen 12 blue whales in over 60 years off the west coast of Namibia and South Africa. The figure seems concerning. However, the majority of those sightings occurred after 2012, which gives scientists optimism that, following decades of commercial whaling, blue whales may be gradually making a comeback.

What Is It With Cats?
Introduction I haven't written anything feline-based for three months, but almost every day that I am out I encounter some cats and sometimes get photographs of them and sometimes they ignore me and just will not pose, lying in the bottom of windows in a furry mass, or just running away.

The Good, Good Boy . . .
So, who is the "Good, Good Boy?" Why, Buddy, of course! If you've been following my posts for a while, you will know that Buddy had an inauspicious beginning here at LoupGarou/Conri Terriers. Just to be absolultely clear, I feel that I must repeat that Buddy was never abused at any time in his life and I do not hold the breeder responsible for his early difficulties with Kathleen that brought him here to live with me. Buddy has never been unstable: his actions have always been defensive in nature and, to him, have seemed entirely logical. He's made incredible progress from those first sad days. He's allowed me to pet him and to pick him up. He's gone into exercise pens and on walks along our rural road. His most recent success was to go to Lowe's for a little off-the-farm training. Next, he'll start walking several days a week for his FIT Dog title. Everything has been going well for Buddy.

Some places quietly become part of who we are. They’re not always world-famous landmarks or sprawling tourist destinations. Instead, they’re places woven into everyday life–the ones where kids press their faces against exhibit glass in wonder, where families stroll on warm afternoons, and where generations share simple moments.

Birds around the world are stressed by human noise, but humans can assist.
Birds don't simply tolerate human cacophony. According to a recent investigation, the noises of construction, traffic, and other human activities are altering the behaviour, stress levels, and even reproductive success of birds.

When the night falls silent, my dog ​​starts barking.
When night finally settles in, I expect silence. The lights are off, the phone is charging, and the world feels like it’s holding its breath. This is the moment when everything is supposed to slow down. But just when the silence feels complete, it does.

Why Flying 16+ Hours With Your Cat Isn’t Safe — Even When Airlines Say It Is
Most airlines will tell you that flying with your cat is “perfectly fine.” They’ll tell you pets fly all the time. They’ll tell you it’s safe, routine, and nothing to worry about.
