Another Bear Story

Lions rescue a little girl from kidnappers
In 2005, a 12-year-old Kenyan girl was kidnapped by four men while walking home from school. It’s a far-too-common story that could have ended in tragedy — if not for the pride of lions who stepped in to save her.
A week after the abduction, the kidnappers were chased off by three lions who guarded the victim until police arrived to rescue her. Police say they found the girl “shocked and terrified” — and surrounded by lions. The massive beasts quickly dispersed when officers arrived. She was bruised from being manhandled by the kidnappers, but the lions never laid a paw on her.
Lion experts (and skeptics) say it’s possible that the lions were planning to eat the girl themselves but were dissuaded by her crying, which sounds a lot like the sound a baby lion cub makes. Either way, these lions should be celebrated as the heroes they truly are.
Interesting story.
LOL

Starving street dogs so emaciated one was just hours from death are rescued from Cyprus and flown to a new life in Britain on a jet carrying coronavirus medical supplies
Hugo, an 18-month-old German short-haired pointer (left) and Elsa, a five-year-old English pointer (right) were so skinny when they were found in Cyprus that their bones could be seen clearly under their skin. Andrea Siddons, 51, who runs a dog shelter on the island, rescued the two dogs and was able to get them on a British Airways Boeing 747 that was bringing medical supplies back to the UK. They are now safely being looked after at a shelter in the UK, where they will be found new homes

Reminds me of that film the War Horse, is an incredible film, another Steven Speilberg classic:

Animal rescuers were given special permission to evade coronavirus lockdown rules to save three loveable brown bear cubs in Russia.
They drove a round trip of 1,600 miles to collect the starving babies abandoned by their mother, and place them in a special orphanage from the predators.
Mom fled after loggers had damaged her den with their cutting equipment.
The lumberjacks left the three-month-old bears alone in the damaged den for two days hoping the female would return but she did not.
Staff from the Rescue Centre for Orphaned Bear Cubs got permits to drive from Tver region to Kirov region to save the tiny cubs during Covid-19 lockdown.
