Oct 30, 2009: Fire Survivors

[xoxoxoBruce]

When wildfires hit California lots of organizations, and agencies, spring into action. The news is full of actions by Police, Firefighters, Medical Rescue to care for people, and the Humane Societies to care for pets.

Less publicized is the Wild Animal Rescue teams to care for the injured wildlife.

A wildfire in Santa Barbara, California last month helped forge some unlikely bonds. Rescued from the Jesusita Fire, a 3-week old bobcat kitten and 3 day old fawn became fast friends. The animal rescue in California brought predator and prey together. But these babies simply took comfort in each other’s company, snuggling under a desk at a dispatch office for hours.

I don't suppose it would be fair to cook them now.
