Sretan ishod: lovački pas spašen iz jame!

Objavljeno u Ljubimci

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.

U listopadu 2020 godine kod Gornjih Pitava na otoku Hvaru događala prava drama, ali na kraju se ipak dogodio happy end. Susanne P., inače članica udruge "Eco Hvar" koja živi u Austriji a ima kuću u tom pitoresknom selu, spasila je odbjeglog lovačkog psa iz jame uz pomoć vatrogasaca. A taj pas je prije toga više od tjedan dana lajao na tom šumskom području, početno se činilo da je tamo nakon nedjeljnog lova ostavljen bez nadzora, kako se to ponekad zna dogoditi, osobito s mladim lovačkim psima.

 

Međutim, kad je pas nastavio lajati s istog mjesta, danju i noći, posumnjalo se da je možda zapeo ili da je za nešto privezan bez odgovarajućih uvjeta. Sretna okolnost je da udruga "Eco Hvar" ima sjedište baš u Gornjim Pitvama, pa je Susane odlučila potražiti psa kad ode u šetnji sa svojom kujicom Poli. Inače, Poli je prava 'Hrvatica', usvojena preko udruge N & N Helping Dogs u Grazu, koja je spasila nju, njezinu mamu, braću i sestre kad su bili odbačeni negdje kod Dubrovnika. Inače, spomenuta udruga se istaknula pomažući životinjama u istočnoj Europi.

Potraga za psom trajala je dva dana, jer je prvog dana kad je Susanne išla prema spomenutom području lajanje prestalo, i to na nekoliko sati. No, drugog dana su ona i Poli uspjele locirati mjesto otkud se lajanje čulo.

Bilo je izuzetno teško doći do psa - kroz potok, po strmom terenu u gustoj šumi, a daleko od puta.... Ali bile su uporne, išle su sve dok nisu pronašle psa koji je zapravo upao u jednu jamu. Nije bila previše duboka, svega 1,50 metara, ali dovoljno da pas nije mogao vani, niti čovjek unutra bez nekakvih ljestvi.

Austrijanka je odmah o događaju obavijestila predsjednicu udruge “Eco Hvar”, Vivian Grisogono, i poslala joj fotografije mobitelom. Naravno, uslijedila je brza reakcija, informacija je prenijeta Tončiju Batošu, lovočuvaru LU otoka Hvara, koji je angažirao vatrogasce da krenu u akciju spašavanja životinje. Zapovjednik DVD-a Jelsa, Roman Radonić, se bez puno razmišljanja s ljestvama uputio do Susanne i Poli, da bi mu ona pokazala gdje je ta jama. Pomoć je čekala više od sat vremena, jer su prilike bile takve da se bojala ako s tog mjesta ode da ga naknadno možda neće ni naći.

Ni Romanu nije bilo baš lako doći do njih makar je mlad i spretan čovjek, a kad je ipak stigao za čas se spustio u jamu i iznio psa vani. Bila je to jedna kuja, dugodlaki istarski gonič, sva prljava i šokirana, ali što je najvažnije bez vidljivih ozljeda. Nekako se s tim lajanjem spasila od smrti, ali tamo zasigurno ne bi mogla biti još dugo, niti preživjeti.

Bila je mirna i očito zahvalna da je spašena. Odmah je smještena na sigurno, dobila je hranu i vodu. Drugog dana članica udruge "Eco Hvar", Sara Radonić, koja ima grooming certifikat, krenula je očistiti kuju od guste bujne dlake, jer od nje gotovo nije mogla otvoriti usta.

Ubrzo se javio njen vlasnik (podatci poznati redakciji), kazavši da je traži već deset dana nakon što je nestala nakon lova i bio je sav sretan da je njegova Dijana napokon pronađena. Po dogovoru, nakon četiri sata čišćenja, kuja mu je vraćena sva čista i uredna, bez vidljivih posljedica od opisane traume.

To nije prvi put da je Dijana nestala, ona je često bježala čim bi joj se ukazala prilika, potvrdio je to i lokalni veterinar rekavši "... Znamo da je kuja sklona bježanju i vrlo se teško vraća doma. I ranije smo bili svjedoci da je nije bilo i po nekoliko dana. Jednom prilikom pobjegla je dok smo cijepili ostale pse kod njenog vlasnika, svi psi su se u vrlo kratkom vremenu vratili, a ona je opet bila pronađena tek nakon 10-tak dana. Smatramo da vlasnik nije uzrok, jer da je onda bi se na isti način ponašali i drugi njegovi psi, prema svemu sudeći kod nje je naglašena lovačka genetika, ona uvijek nešto traži i samo gre naprijed, njoj su potrebne kilometarske šetnje i bez njih jednostavno ne može."

Članovi i simpatizeri udruge "Eco Hvar" presretni su da se i ova saga dobro završila, jer je zaista mogla imati tragičan kraj. Preporuka je da je dobro da psi imaju GPS, jer ih se tako puno lakše može naći kad se izgube. Čest problem je da lovački psi lutaju poslije odrađenog lova, pogotovo ako su tek nedavno dovedeni na škoj, ali istini za volju to se može dogoditi i kućnom ljubimcu kad ide u šetnju sa svojim vlasnikom.

  • Sea ice is melting fast, worsening the climate crisis, but a bold attempt to rethicken it is showing early signs of success

    ‘This would have been a wild dream a year ago,” says Andrea Ceccolini, standing on Arctic sea ice just a 4-mile snowmobile ride from the Inuit town of Cambridge Bay, northern Canada. To his left are sky blue ponds of meltwater created in the last few days by a sun that no longer sets in the high north summer. To his right, the sea ice is still a brilliant white, the light dusting of snow on top continuing to sparkle.

    “It’s incredibly different, the boundary – I mean, you can point to it,” he says. The difference is the result of a bold geoengineering experiment being conducted by Ceccolini’s company, Real Ice, funded by the UK government.

  • Almost every child, including those from high-income countries, is now exposed to at least one hazard

    Half of the world’s children are exposed to at least three overlapping climate hazards threatening their health, education and survival, according to a Unicef report.

    Globally, children face increasing threats from heatwaves, storms, floods and droughts as the climate crisis worsens, with more than one billion facing at least three of these at once.

  • Tech is helping to identify and save new specimens and could open ‘genomic goldmine’ of fungi data

    The rise of AI and digitisation could be a turning point in the “race against extinction” faced by botanists trying to identify and save vital plants before they vanish, according to a major report from Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.

    New technology is enabling scientists to track how flowering times have shifted by weeks around the world, rapidly identify new specimens and even get crucial genetic data from 180-year-old fungus specimens, potentially opening a “genomic goldmine”. Digitisation and online access to millions of specimens that were until now only accessible in archives is also producing new insights, especially in the global south.

  • The short-tailed roundleaf bat was feared extinct until scientist Iroro Tanshi found one in Afi sanctuary in Nigeria, and set out to protect the only confirmed roosting colony

    Just after sunrise, a cacophony of whoops and chatter can be heard over the verdant forests of the Afi mountain wildlife sanctuary. Nestled within the Cross River rainforest in south-east Nigeria, and spanning an area about the size of central Paris, the steep sanctuary is a haven for endangered gorillas, drill monkeys, the grey-necked rockfowl – and the short-tailed roundleaf bat.

    The Nigerian biologist Iroro Tanshi remembers the moment she first spotted the endangered bat in 2016, during a field expedition for her PhD research. “We were trapping near a roost that night, so we caught a lot of bats,” says Tanshi. But, she adds: “This looked very, very different. Big-eared.” She promptly turned to her identification guide, which revealed that the tiny furry creature she was holding between her fingers was Hipposideros curtus, better known as the short-tailed roundleaf bat, last recorded in the wild in the 1970s.

  • Thinktank says decoupling electricity from gas prices has also helped shield Spain from hikes caused by Iran war

    Spanish households save €10 a month on electricity bills because of wind turbines and solar panels installed in the last five years, a report has found.

    Typical energy bills would be 19% more expensive if electricity costs were still as tightly coupled to gas prices as in 2021, according to Ember, a climate thinktank. It found Spain’s “strategic” expansion of renewables since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 has shielded Spanish households from the latest rises in fossil fuel prices caused by the Iran war.

  • Wharfedale, Yorkshire: On the trail of a wood warbler, I find a suite of woodland plants rising up from a fascinating land formation – limestone pavement

    Grass Wood is a magnificent fragment of ancient woodland owned and exceptionally well managed by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust. It is home to some lovely plants, including lily of the valley and herb paris. What became my defining revelation about the place and, in truth, about this whole area was down to a wood warbler.

    It is among my favourite birds, so getting to see the individual singing just off the trail required me to enter the trees, rise up a short bank, and then sit for a long time on a rocky ledge. Slowly it dawned on me that the platform on which I rested, while carpeted in moss, was also incised into a tessellated pattern. From these narrow cracks in the limestone arose a suite of woodland plants. It was dense with ash seedlings, ferns and sedges, as well as linear thickets of dog’s mercury, but there – unmistakably where my hand rested – were strips of flowering herb paris.

  • Amid fears the wreck will be more accessible to explorers – and new species – as the climate warms, conservationists want to create the region’s first underwater protected area

    The harsh temperatures, treacherous currents and shifting pack ice of the Antarctic’s Weddell Sea, which crushed and sank his ship, Endurance, in 1915, led Ernest Shackleton to describe it as the “worst portion of the worst sea in the world”.

    For more than a century, the inhospitable conditions, which present a challenge even for modern icebreaker ships, helped to protect the lost wreck, which was discovered in 2022, its structure still largely intact.

  • Residents of West Oakland, which suffers from toxic waste and high pollution rates, rally against a coal export facility

    West Oakland, a California neighborhood known for its rich history of Black activism from the Pullman Porters’ union to the Black Panthers, might not seem like the site of the country’s next great coal project.

    But that’s exactly what the Trump administration is pushing for – with the injection of $75m to build a sprawling coal export terminal in the nearby port of Oakland.

  • ‘Saddened, stunned, surprised and haunted’ is how one surfer describes the mood at the popular Sydney beach two days after Leah Stewart was bitten by a great white

    Under a clear blue sky on a Monday morning, Coogee beach in Sydney’s east is quiet.

    A few swimmers have ventured into the ocean pools at the northern and southern ends of the beach. Most others sit on the sand, looking towards the water.

  • Activists argue business model is ‘plantation tourism’ designed to benefit elite and disadvantage most Jamaicans

    Devon Taylor remembers when the Mammee Bay shoreline in St Ann, Jamaica, was filled with children frolicking in the ocean after school, fishers haggling with locals over the price of their daily catch and craft vendors carving souvenirs under almond trees.

    “I grew up on Mammee Bay,” Taylor says. He recalls fetching seawater in bottles for his grandmother when she was no longer able to go to the beach, learning to swim in the shallows, and watching generations of fishers cast their nets. “That beach raised us. It fed us.”
