Loved it!

Big burst to the population and many twins!  Sure seems like a significant sign to me!

"In fact, it’s a culmination, of sorts, for the country’s pachyderms.

Sri Lanka to ban imports of plastic goods to protect elephants.

"Sri Lanka will ban the import of most plastic products in a bid to protect wild elephants and deer that die eating the waste, the environment minister announced Friday.

Plastic in Sri Lankan landfills is a major killer of elephants, with autopsies showing kilos of it in the stomachs of animals who died after rummaging at dumps."

This sweet dog in Wales chased some seagulls into the sea and was swept out to the ocean. His rescue is really sweet to watch.
