What does it feel like to be in a state of despair? It’s like being trapped in a terrible situation with no way out. It’s the feeling of reaching out for help but finding no one to rely on. We can only truly understand it if we’ve experienced it ourselves. But even if we haven’t, we can all agree that it’s an awful feeling and requires great strength to overcome. Today, we want to share a heartwarming story about a courageous dog who faced the most dire circumstances but managed to find a new and wonderful life.

The poor dog was completely helpless when the rescuer first found him, lying under the wheel of a car. It was later revealed that he had been lying on the grass for a long time, enduring the scorching heat during the day and the chilly nights. He had no food, and he was in immense pain. He had been stranded by the roadside for over two days, with no help in sight.

He was in a dreadful state, constantly sleeping and feeling exhausted. At that point, Izum may have thought it was the end of the line for him. Luckily, he persevered and patiently waited for a miracle. And just when he received a warm embrace, the little puppy knew in his heart that he had been rescued.

“He cried a lot when met me after lying in pain for 2 days with despair and sadness,” shared the rescuer.

Izum was immediately brought to the veterinarian for a thorough health examination. At that time, he was estimated to be only 3-4 months old. Unfortunately, it was discovered that his back legs were severely injured and beyond repair. The little dog urgently needed surgery to address this critical condition.

It requires a significant amount of effort to encourage him to run, even after the surgery, due to his poor health condition when he was rescued. It’s important to note that around 90% of individuals with spinal cord injuries experience disability and are unable to walk. To minimize his distress, a supportive structure was placed on his legs. Furthermore, the veterinary team is committed to aiding the young dog in his recovery, as they understand his youthfulness and the long life ahead of him.

Izum received excellent care at the veterinary clinic, including a nutritious diet and comfortable rest on warm towels. This adorable young dog also receives daily gentle massages and exercises to help improve his muscle strength and overall body development.

Shortly after, the little dog was moved to a rehabilitation center with the assistance of the veterinary staff and supportive individuals both inside and outside the clinic. In this facility, Izum received therapeutic laser therapy, a treatment that helps reduce inflammation and promote tissue regeneration. Combined with appropriate exercises and attentive care provided at the center, Izum’s condition gradually improved.

These Pics Are Art and the Artists Are Insects

Flying insects move so quickly that they are hard to follow, but new technology and some smart ideas have helped Spanish photographer Xavi Bou do just that. After spending 10 years focusing on birds in flight for his Ornithographies project, he turned his attention to insects.

For Entomographies, he uses high-speed video footage taken by Adrian Smith, an insect expert at North Carolina State University, to study and record how insects move. Bou then picks multiple frames and combines them into single images that show the fast movements of one or more insects through space and time.

With Smith’s help, Bou has captured the aerial tricks of wasps, the jumps of leafhoppers, and the fluttering of butterflies in amazing detail. He hopes that by doing this, he can make people more aware of the decline in important insect populations around the world.

This butterfly, which is common in many areas of the Americas, really fits its name. It can fly very high with just a few flaps of its large wings.
