Meet this sweet Raccoon named Pumpkin, he was found very small and raised in a house with dogs.
One day, a resident of the Bahamas, Rosie Kemp, was walking along the streets of her hometown and found a small raccoon that fell from a tree. The cub was injured and had a broken leg, but Rosie did not notice any of his family nearby.

Then the woman decided that she was nursing the animal herself. The woman fed the little raccoon a special mixture every 2 hours throughout the day, and over time the raccoon felt much better and quickly settled into his new home and made friends with the members of his new family – two dogs that Rosie and her husband also rescued from the street.

This video showcases survey efforts to confirm the presence of Nightjar in the south-east of Ireland in 2024. The mysterious and elusive Nightjar is one of our most intriguing birds. A summer visitor with perfectly camouflaged bark-like plumage, it can be incredibly difficult to spot, only revealing its presence after dark, when the male engages in it’s hypnotic ‘churring’ song.

With only sporadic records of breeding over recent decades, mostly in the south and south-east, the general consensus was that we had effectively lost Nightjars, despite few attempts to prove otherwise. This survey coordinated by BirdWatch Ireland and supported by Kilkenny County Council, Wexford County Council and the National Parks and Wildlife Service through the Local Biodiversity Action Fund confirms that this species still survives in the southeast.

In the arid regions of southern Africa, elephants are known to dig wells in sandy riverbeds using their feet and trunks to reach water beneath the surface. They may also damage boreholes in their quest for water.

African elephants are keystone species, essential to the balance of their ecosystems. In the savanna, they uproot trees and eat saplings, ensuring open spaces for species like zebras and other plains animals to thrive.

In this video, zebras can also be seen in the distance along the roadside.

We did the OBSTACLE CHALLENGE with our puppies! We put a lot of things on the floor and made three rounds with the kitty and just one round with the dogs . How will the kitty and the dogs pass them and how many things will fall after they passed?
