Animal stories, photos, movies, books. Feel good stuff.
My lab is getting bigger and she can't stay inside my house due to my children. I'm looking for a perfect dog house which I can put outside so that my lab can stay there.
For the lab who has everything
I need the fire hydrant.
I also need the brick giant bottle, and the bat sign on the wall. Hey, can I also have the dog while I'm at it?
Can you take your dead animal stories elsewhere please. What part of my OP did you not understand! This is the feelgood thread, not the I wanna make everyone else as miserable thread. Thank you.

Sometimes things will go off topic, i don't like animal cruelty so i don't come onto this thread much incase there are pics that i don't wanna see, but when people try to help injured/sick animals then i applaud them and like to share a similar experience.

Well you haven't asked me before Dani, this is the first time i've seen your msg about not posting about dead animals, you came across almost shouting at the 3 that made comments about about helping dead animals, and i will stick to the games forum!
OK have fun, and I'll continue with my thread for feel good stories.

Woah how amazing. I love mountain gorillas. Baby gorilla being released from a snare and the group were getting aggressive.
Well done to Virunga national park rangers, Gorilla doctors, and hero of the day, Bukima.
The team reached the group at 1:20pm in the Buchuchu area of the park and found subadult female Buzara carrying baby Mayani on her back. She was sticking close to silverback Bukima, and finally settled down next to the group leader, placing Mayani between them. Dr. Martin began to prepare the anesthesia dart while Dr. Eddy organized the protection team. Once the team was ready, Dr. Martin darted Mayani with the sedative to begin the intervention, prompting the males of the group to full alert.
There are four silverbacks in Rugendo group, so Drs. Eddy and Martin were concerned about the safety of this intervention: silverbacks can become aggressive if they suspect that a group member is in danger. Typically, trackers will form a circle around our field veterinarians to protect them from the other group members while they administer medical treatment. But in this particular intervention, the trackers had some help: when the silverbacks of the group became agitated at the onset of the intervention, dominant silverback Bukima began pacing back and forth between the other silverbacks and the intervention team, vocalizing to calm his group members. He continued to block his group members from approaching the intervention team throughout the entire time Drs. Eddy and Martin worked – a remarkable observation that our field team has never experienced before.

My hero, for sure. Every clinic should have a resident Bukima!
