There are many amazing rescues, but this one really touched me. I had no idea that hedgehogs were on such a steep decline in numbers. Did you know that there were 30 million hedgehogs in the UK in 1950 and now there is only 1 million left? Projections state that buy 2025, hedgehogs could be facing urban extinction! It would be an incredible shame to lose such an adorable creature!

As goat breeders, one married couple would look for new kids to add to their family. When they saw a baby goat being listed as “free,” they thought they would take a drive and check out the situation. Instead of finding a new animal to add to their farm family, they found a scene so disgusting it horrified them.
The goat was there, as listed, but the

When Greg Zubiak ventured into the woods to prepare for a moose hunt, he didn't expect to find these little bundles of joy. No, Zubiak did not spot any moose that day, but found a box of 20 puppies abandoned in a field. Sitting cold and scared, these pups didn't stand much of a chance if Zubiak wasn't a generous and quick thinker. When he saw just how chilled the dogs were, he removed his hunting gear and put it on them for warmth. The hunting trip was over, but Zubiak's journey with the box...

When Reddit user powerbookguy came home the other day, this is probably the last thing he expected to find outside of his home. But it’s also the most (tragically) adorable thing he could’ve imagined too: a flock of baby ducks, without their mother in sight.

One day in Arizona, pool contractor Rick Gruber came to work on an otherwise normal day. His task: install a pool heater. But as he arrived he came across a horrifying site. A drowning squirrel.

You’ll never find a dog like Pig, she is a one-in-a-million kind of canine. She was found in the woods near Atlanta, abandoned by her feral mother. The veterinarian who looked her over at first recommended putting the monstrous puppy down. When Kim Dillenbeck heard about the deformed puppy, she had to see her for herself.
Kim had rescued animals before, but never a dog like Pig. Without her adoptive mother’s help, she wouldn’t have been able to survive.

There are homeless dogs all over the country who aren’t getting the help and love that they should (only 1 out of every 10 dogs born will find a permanent home). But, every once in a while, a terrified dog in need will receive a second chance at happiness from a kindly stranger.
