Senior Shelter Dog With Kidney Disease Finds The Perfect Person To Share Life With
When a senior dog named Hailey arrived at the ASPCA, she had a plethora of medical conditions and required treatments and surgeries in order to recover.

US Agency Says Reintroducing Sea Otters to Oregon is Doable and Could Improve the Ecosystem
Sea otters were once found across the North Pacific Rim, stretching from Japan through the Aleutian islands and down the Pacific coast into Mexico. At one point, their population was between 150,000 and 300,000. However, by the early 1900s, their numbers had dwindled to below 2,000 due to high demand for their fur. While the species has been recovering, a sea otter population has still not returned to Oregon. A new report says that could change, though. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has released a report on the feasibility of returning...

Six years ago around midnight, I was in bed and heard boys on the street laughing. Then their car stopped and they really laughed. I live in the country and it was pitch black out.

Horse Owner Baffled When She Finds Filly Stuck In Hay Feeder And Calls For Help
Have you ever found your horse in a predicament and wondered how they got there? Horses are curious by nature and even though they are intelligent animals they sometimes get themselves into trouble.

A young filly named Pixie found herself trapped in a metal hay feeder at her home in Florida and how she ended up in there is a mystery. Her owner was shocked and worried when she found her horse in the middle of the...

The two were among several other bears searching for salmon in the water. 910 has her own way of enticing the salmon with a “special dance”. However, she wanted her...
Woman Saves an Abandoned Cat on a Busy Interstate
It was a day of errands for Alex de Ponte until something interesting caught her eye while driving on the interstate. She was able to spot a black cat on the side of the road. The situation was worrisome since it is dangerous for animals to hang out near roadways — especially if it’s a busy interstate. Alex couldn’t just stop on the side, as she was in the opposite lane. She decided to finish her errand first and check back on the cat on her way home. @alexdapontemusic #cat #cats #kitten #kittens #pet #pets #petsoftiktok...
