This summer, ecologists with the Gros Morne National Park in Newfoundland, Canada, planted over 300,000 trees to restore its ecosystem. The ecosystem has been affected by moose overbrowsing.
+
After establishing a tree planting program last year, the park plans to continue planting 300,000 trees annually until it reaches its goal of one million. To succeed, ecologists are engaging local community members by distributing surplus trees to residents and municipalities.

How about allowing wolves to help with the moose overgrazing.
he was so hungry
I will NEVER hire you. How dare you try to make money off a good news site?
84-year-old man fell and injured his leg at his cabin on September 25. He was unable to get up for hours, so his dog, Gita, decided to take action.
+
Gita made her way to a nearby road, where she sat down in the middle. That way she effectively blocked traffic and drew the attention of a passing local sheriff’s deputy.
+
The deputy tried to get Gita into his car, but she ran away. He followed Gita, and soon heard an elderly man’s voice call out for help.
+
“The loyalty and heroism of our furry friends never cease to amaze us,” a representative of the sheriff’s office said in a statement. “He … may have had serious consequences if he had not been found.”

If I had her money I would too
All of the celebrities who can afford it should join Dolly in her effort to help your fellow man ( you know, the ones who made you rich).
Charikleia Minotou, coordinator of the World Wildlife Fund program in Zakynthos, has been observing the loggerhead sea turtles for 25 years. Recently, she noticed extraordinary changes in sea turtle nesting in Greece.
+
The beach of Sekania, known as the Mediterranean's greatest "maternity ward" for loggerhead sea turtles, now hosts record numbers of nests and surviving hatchlings. Greece, home to 60% of Caretta caretta nests, has seen nest numbers surge from 5,000 to 7,000 annually to over 10,000 since 2023.
+
Conservationists attribute this increase to decades of conservation efforts aimed at protecting the ancient species.
+
“It’s been the most wonderful news, at my age, to find out that the Caretta caretta are no longer so threatened, but it’s crucial protective measures continue to be enforced,” Minotou commented.

Mandy Watson, co-owner of Kununurra's Kangaroo Rescue Haven in Australia, rescues joeys from deceased mothers. Without an incubator, only 1 in 25 of these joeys survive, as they struggle without the warmth and nutrients of their mother’s pouch.
+
Jane Darlington, a nurse at Kununurra District Hospital, found two old incubators and wanted to repurpose them. She came up with the idea to use the incubators as a pseudo-pouch after seeing a volunteer in a wallaby suit carrying a joey.
+
She connected with Kangaroo Rescue Haven to express her idea. The incubators would provide a constant temperature, dramatically improving the animals’ chances.
+
"It's not going to save every single one, but it will make a big difference to us," Mandy commented.
+
The ultimate goal is to rehabilitate and release them back into the wild.

He didn't run the full marathon, and his owners weren't running in it, either. The ACTUAL story is cool enough without lying.
Right, so your headline is completely wrong, as a couple of people have pointed out. The goat ran the last couple of kilometres, after escaping from his pen. His owners weren't running at all. He didn't win the marathon or anything, but he got a medal for participation, which I think is incredible on the part of the organisers in CBS! I agree, the actual story is cool enough without trying to sensationalize it!
I live in this community and Joshua joined the race when the runners ran along the pumpkin farm where he lives...he jumped his fence and joined in. He has been celebrated in our little community ever since.
In first class this wonderful Gentleman saw her plight and flagged me down. He said, “can you please get her and put her in my seat and I will take hers.”
+
He walked back with me to get her and take her to first class. She was so touched. The woman gave him a big hug and said “Never in my 94 years has someone done that for me. Thank you young man.” She had tears of gratitude.
+
It was amazing how his thoughtful act changed the attitude of everyone on the flight. May we all look for the little things we can do, to help others around us and show Christlike acts of kindness.
+
In this crazy world let’s all try to Be the Good.
