A beautiful dog with a photo which doesn't do him justice, Murry #249770 is just 9 MONTHS OLD. What could be an intelligent, loved and cherished family member, instead is treated like a piece of trash in Apple Valley CA. He's in need of help before he lands on the deadly euthanasia list.

It’s #Caturday! Ringo was feral, I took him in when he was around 6 months old, and it took about a month before he would get this close.

The World’s Oldest Wolf ~ 'Madadh' lived to 19 years old and became the world’s oldest wolf. Her longevity was attributed to fresh mountain water, a stress free existence, raw food and acres of wilderness to roam in. Madadh was rescued by "wolfwatchuk" along with her brother Kgosi, from a zoo. #wolf

Earlier this year, a video of a gloriously creepy anglerfish inspired tears and poetry online. But why was this deep-sea dweller near the surface at all?

13th Hour This one truly took so long to paint ;_; I've always loved paintings with lots of tiny hidden details but couldn't work on those very often because of my hand injury. But I decided to really indulge this time.

A very happy "gotcha" day to Charlie, who came into our lives four years ago today. She is a delightful menace and we're glad she's part of the family. Also, she wants to know if you are going to eat that.

Snuggles, mist showers, and mealtime for World Frog Day! 🐸 Our magnificent tree frogs love to climb with their sticky toe pads and enjoy misting sessions as enrichment. Meanwhile, our tiny but bold poison dart frogs get their toxicity from wild diets and use their bright colors to warn predators.

Spent the morning having a chiropractor turn down my #Veteran, they said they do not support the #VA and must be paid in cash, even though the #VA sent him there. So we went to the dog park to help my #Veteran forget the pain in his body. #thestruggle #workingdogs #DogsOfBlueSky #SemperFi
