VAŽNA NAPOMENA: Uložili smo mnogo truda i novca u postavljanje naših hranilišta. Projektirali smo i financirali kućice za mačke te ih postavili na mjesta uz dopuštenje vlasnika nekretnina. Ovako rade:

Dirljiva priča o tome kako je poseban mačić našao svoj idealan dom.

Što učiniti ako vaš ljubimac proguta otrovnu tvar ili ako naiđete na mrtve životinje i posumnjate na trovanje kao uzrok.

Jedan jadan ulični mačak je našao novi život u Osnovnoj škoji u Starom Gradu.

Lutajući po centru Jelse, mali psić, izgubljen i prestrašen, nije mogao ni slutiti kako će mu se sreća okrenuti.

nek' se bolje odnose prema okolišu i životinjama!

Zahvaljujući jelšanskom načelniku Nikši Peronji, jelšanske ulične mačke dobile su novu šansu za život u miru i novu priliku da prežive i uživaju u miru.

Eco Hvar se ponekad kritizira da čini premalo - ili čak ništa - kako bi pomogao bezbrojnim potrebitim mačkama i mačićima na otoku. Zapravo ima puno stanovnika otoka, kako mještana, tako i doseljenika, koji stalno daju sve od sebe kako bi pomogli.

Bilo je burno na Redovnoj skupštini Udruge "Eco Hvar" – za dobrobit ljudi, životinja i okoliša otoka Hvara, a koja se u posljednje vrijeme na nekoliko vrlo čitanih portala bavila prvenstveno temama vezanim za uporabu pesticida kako u javnom, tako i privatnom prostoru.

Oduševljeni smo što vidimo da se naše hranilice za mačke dobro koriste! Inicijativa se razvija polako ali sigurno.

Lucky Luki revels joyfully in his explorations of Hvar's boundless beauties. The Galešnik fortress in the hill to the south above Jelsa is one of his regular haunts.

Luki i njegov dvonožni “roditelj” Ivica stalno obilaze Hvar, koristeći stare staze, i ovako pomažu u održavanju starih puteva. Uživaju u lijepoj prirodi i posjetu povijesnih spomenika, od kojih ima puno na otoku.

There's nothing Luki likes better than exploring the lesser known areas of Hvar Island. The eastern region is largely overlooked and (mercifully) underdeveloped, so it is perfect territory for Luki and his friends.

Luki i njegov dvonožni “roditelj” Ivica svoj rodni kraj vole istinski i bezrezervno. U ove tri godine, koliko su zajedno, Ivica je Lukija upoznao s beskrajnim radostima koje otok Hvar nudi. Kulturna, sakralna nalazišta i povijesna baština značajni su u njihovim istraživanjima.

Blagdan sv. Roka je 16. kolovoza. Sv. Rok je zaštitnik Starog Grada - i pasa.

Dog owners be warned! In Dalmatia's hot summers, dog paws may need protecting.

Negdje početkom studenoga 2018. godine, kujica je ostavljena uz cestu iznad Jelse, nedaleko od ambulante, sa svojih pet štenaca.

Dirljiva priča o majstorici yoge koja je nekad radila kao plesačica u Londonu, a onda je u Dalmaciji otkrila ljubav prema tovarima

Goats' Play

Objavljeno u Ljubimci

Vrisnik is a village which boasts many animals. Goats are among the most prized.

Dogs in a loving home become friends with their owners. They say that anyone who doesn't like animals doesn't like humans either.

Cats and music both give pleasure to many. Combine the two...pure joy for cat and music lovers!

Tovar je od pamtivijeka zaštitni znak Dalmacije, a težacima je najčešće služio kao tegleća životinja

Sezona lova na Hvaru traje od listopada do siječnja. Nedjeljom i srijedom lovci izađu na teren sasvojim psima, koji laju neprestano kad nađu tragove plijena.

Jednog lijepog sunčanog dana u ožujku, jedno sretno štene došetalo je u Jelsu popiti kavu sa svojim novim vlasnicima.

Sreća se umiješala kada je jednog vrućeg srpanjskog dana na pustoši pokraj Splita psić prepušten sudbini.

Nemaju svi psi u Dalmaciji bezbrižan život. Rocky je imao više sreće od drugih. Ovdje priča svoju priču.

Bobi je već nekoliko godina slobodno lutao Jelsom. Njegovu iznenadnu smrt moramo shvatiti kao upozorenje.

Hvar je predivni otok i ima mnogo svojih šarma - ali ima isto grdu stranu. Mačke!

Nola, a type of Siberian husky, had an unpromising start to her young life.

Dona finds a good home, three years on.

Beautiful, intelligent, good-natured and lively, Negra will bring joy to the right owner.

Od ćudljivog psa koji je lutao ulicama Starog Grada do Alfa psa i kraljice Dola, Svete Ane. Evening Lategano odorišta za dušu i tijelo Suncokret u Dolu donosi priču Mazinog spasa.

  • Her research popularised the idea of the wood wide web, but the scientific backlash was brutal. As the author of The Mother Tree returns to the forest in a new book, she discusses her battle to reimagine our relationship with nature

    In 2018, the ecologist and writer Suzanne Simard was conducting research in the forested Caribou Mountains of western Canada when a thunderstorm rolled in. She was with her two teenage daughters and her close friend and colleague, Jean Roach. They saw flashes of lightning, heard a loud rumble and then they smelled smoke. They were forced to run the half kilometre back to Simard’s truck as the trees behind them caught alight and the air grew thick. As they ran, animals burst out of the forest: a deer, a rabbit, a grey wolf. They reached the truck with no time to spare, all four of them covered in soot and dirt. Overhead, helicopters began circling the orange-black air, dropping water on the flames below.

    Wildfires have become an ever bigger problem in Canada. The 2018 wildfires were the biggest in British Columbia’s history, but this record was broken in 2021, and then again in 2023, when fires consumed an area three times the size of the Canadian province of Nova Scotia and the smoke travelled as far as New York City. The cause is not only global heating, which has brought hotter, dryer summers, but also the changing makeup of the forest. When logging companies clear forest, they replant it with fast-growing conifer species, but these trees are much more flammable than Canada’s diverse, native forest.

  • Hedgehogs’ habitat is shrinking, they’re vulnerable to cars, and pesticides are affecting their food supply. Here’s how we can help them pull through

    With stumpy, speedy legs, questing snouts and a fierce quiver of needles, hedgehogs are enchantingly strange, like fantasy creatures from a medieval bestiary. “It’s the nation’s favourite wild animal – every time there’s a vote or a poll, the hedgehog wins,” says ecologist Hugh Warwick, AKA “Hedgehog Hugh”, author of the Cull of the Wild and hedgehog champion.

  • The Quapaw Nation is the only US Native community to carry out a cleanup of one of the country’s worst sites of environmental contamination

    They call this land the Laue. In the late 1800s, part of these 200 acres of grassland inside the Quapaw Nation were allotted to tribal citizen Charley Quapaw Blackhawk. After forcing dozens of tribes into Indian territory before the civil war, the US government then parceled out reservations and property to individual members. It was part of the government’s attempt to “civilize” Native Americans by turning them into private, not communal,landholders and yeoman farmers in the model of Thomas Jefferson’s ideal citizen.

    Yet, for the last century, little grew on the Laue. Half of it was buried beneath towering mounds of toxic rock known as chat piles. The waste rock, laced with chemicals, was left after miners extracted millions of tons of lead and zinc from the Tri-State Mining District, where the valuable ores stretched across Kansas, Missouri and Oklahomabetween 1891 and the 1970s. By 1983, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had designated 40 sq miles that include nearly all the Quapaw Nation as the Tar Creek Superfund site, joining the EPA’s list of the most contaminated places in the country. Informally called a “megasite”, Tar Creek remains one of the largest and most complex environmental disasters in the country.

  • Review from non-profit finds range of scenarios of firms simultaneously lobbying for and against Pfas regulations

    Some top US lobbying firms are simultaneously working both sides of the Pfas “forever chemicals” issue, raising serious conflict of interest questions and concerns that their activity is slowing states’ efforts to rein in the public health threat.

    The review of six states’ lobbying records conducted by the non-profit F-Minus found a range of scenarios in which firms lobbied both sides. Most common Pfas are linked to cancer. The lobbying firm Holland & Knight works for the American Chemistry Council, which represents the nation’s largest Pfas makers, and aggressively opposes most regulations. Simultaneously, Holland & Knight lobbies for the American Cancer Society.

  • Exclusive: Lough Neagh, which supplies drinking water for 40% of NI, contains genes resistant to last-resort antibiotics

    Genes capable of creating antibiotic-resistant superbugs have been detected in the UK’s largest lake, which supplies drinking water to about 40% of Northern Ireland.

    Testing of water from Lough Neagh, which has a surface area 26 times bigger than Windermere, found genes resistant to a wide range of antibiotics, including carbapenems – drugs reserved for life-threatening infections when all other treatments have failed.

  • Ruabon grouse moor, Wrexham: Mating season is upon us. Will I be lucky enough to spot a courtship lek?

    I’m shooting grouse on the moor today. There are two kinds here: red grouse, a gamebird reared and shot in its thousands; and its larger, rarer cousin, the black grouse. The latter is supposedly spared by a ban that remains voluntary despite catastrophic declines in recent decades. As it’s not shooting season, which runs from August to mid-December, I shoulder a camera, not a shotgun, hoping to snap one of these increasingly rare birds.

    Springtime is when black grouse start to breed, so I arrive before dawn, which is when they lek – a courtship dance where they fan their tails, peck and scuffle with their rivals.

  • Carmaker’s decision to drop NissanConnect EV app on relatively recent cars fuels warnings from experts

    Owners of some Nissan Leaf electric vehicles are angry after the carmaker announced it would shut down an app that lets them remotely control battery charging and other functions.

    Drivers of Leaf cars made before May 2019 and the e-NV200 van (produced until 2022) have been told that the NissanConnect EV app linked to their vehicles will “cease operation” from 30 March. This means they will lose remote services, including turning on the heating, and some map features.

  • Colossal Biosciences’ CEO says its work follows a ‘moral obligation’ while critics say it’s ‘tech bro’ hype that could undermine conservation

    Can and should we resurrect animal species that have been extinct for thousands of years? Such weighty, existential questions were once the preserve of science fiction but are now being played out within an unassuming brick building in a Dallas business park.

    Colossal Biosciences, valued at $10.2bn after raising hundreds of millions of dollars in funding from investors including celebrities spanning from Tiger Woods to Paris Hilton, has provoked a stampede of acclaim as well as denunciation after announcing last year it had made the dire wolf, a species lost from the world for more than 10,000 years, “de-extinct” via the birth of three new pups.

  • Mohammed Ahmed Sayed Mohammed is among those redeploying his skills for a local recycling company that is cleaning up the Nile

    At 6am, Mohammed Ahmed Sayed Mohammed steers his boat from al-Qarsaya island through Cairo’s Nile waters towards the capital’s riverside clubs. Fifteen years ago, he searched for fish. Now he hunts plastic bottles.

    “The fish fled from the plastic chokehold,” said Sayed, who has lived on the Giza island since arriving from Assiut, further south on the Nile, as a 14-year-old fishing apprentice. He never returned to his village, marrying locally and raising three children who now live alongside him with their 12 grandchildren on the island housing 200 families.

    It’s only a few years on from the release of ChatGPT but the race to plug artificial intelligence into everything has sparked a surge in datacentres, with escalating environmental costs.

    Globally, datacentre power demand is growing four times faster than all other sectors, according to the International Energy Agency, and is on track to exceed Japan’s electricity use by 2030.
