Sitting here looking at all these photos of animals trying to keep cool in hot weather, especially here today and the last few days in WA makes me think of all those creatures that have not been able to get to water in our country, it is so sad.

 

 

This reminds me of my late large poodle doing the same!  LOL

Dopey dog struggles to get a large plank of wood through patio doors into his home

 

This is the moment a clever boy worked out how to fit a long plank of wood through a narrow doorway. The video, recorded in Penetanguishene, Ontario, and uploaded to YouTube on December 27, shows a determined dog trying and trying to get a long stick into his home. The dog, named Wally, discovers the long plank of wood on the patio, hidden behind the barbecue. Clearly delighted with his discovery, Wally begins exploring the piece of wood - scratching and biting at it. After some wrestling, the brown Weimaraner manages to get it in its mouth, before trotting happily towards the house. Wally soon finds himself in a seemingly insuperable game of Tetris, as he struggles to fit the unwieldy plank through the narrow doorway.

The brown Weimaraner embodies the proverb, 'if at first you don't succeed, try, try again'

I wish people would keep their cats indoors or at least let them have an enclosure outside for good days, most of the time the cats sleep anyway.

Cats could be BANNED from going outside under new rules in Australia to help save the MILLIONS of native animals they kill every day - here's what pet owners need to know

Research has found every single feral cat slaughters a staggering 740 local wildlife creatures annually, but even pet cats can each kill 180 on average every year - now council restrictions are rolling out.

 

Tigers are in short supply, Cleaners aren't!!!

 

 

Tiger is shot and killed at Florida zoo after BITING a cleaner's arm when he entered the animal enclosure and stuck his hand through the fence to pet it

Deputies arrived at Naples Zoo in Florida to find Malayan tiger Eko with the cleaner's arm in its mouth and said they were 'forced to shoot' the animal to free him.

 

 

Not sure where these where taken!

 

 

I had walked often through the jungle with my parents and while at one time we were stalked by a tiger, we were never accosted by tigers nor any other animals.  On relating the stalking to the ranger, he said that the tiger possibly had young nearby and was checking  that we would not hurt nor interfere with them.

We had planter friends, who were surrounded by animal life ... they never experienced any problems. Except for friends  who had a swimming pool and who lived close to a river. Sometimes crocodiles would leave the river to swim in their pool.  

Of course with encroachment due to urbanization, all this changed ... animals became dangerous ... as did humans to animals.
