Two days ago we rescued an Owl. It could not stand and it has an injured wing. No access to water or food. After treatment with fluids and antibiotics it is feeling much better. It is eating well. Now nature has to help a bit.
Almost once a week we receive a monkey that is electrocuted by connecting to the live wires in town. There are no more monkeys in the forest. They all come to town and don’t know the difference between a live wire and the branch of a tree.
A few weeks ago our two male sloth bears were castrated. Yesterday we opened the door between the two compounds and now the whole bear family of six bears is playing together.

Our rescued bears playing happily together!
