To further on roomba, once a native desert tortoise has been removed from the wild and kept as a pet (or been illegally bred and sold as a pet), they really can't be released back into the wild.

This provides great insight.
 
My Amazon Smile charity and one that does very good work is Hope for Paws. They have been around for 14 years, and I also donate direct when I have the opportunity (along with Save the Elephants).

 
I almost forgot that if you want to Kermit animal rescue. You can save some Kiwis with this fren thread I made.

I like the work that Eldad does. Funny, I just remembered the one guy in the Youtube chat. It was several years ago. He was adamant that Eldad was a scammer and insisted that he has evidence. I forgot who that guy was but he sent me a link to a site that had rumors about Eldad on it like that he doesn't help all animals, only the one's that give him most clicks on YouTube. And that he allegedly refuses to help when he gets called to help with a rescue. I don't remember the site but since neither Eldad nor Hope for Paws got exposed for fraud or scams, it seems like their attempt to hurt Eldad failed.

but you can still eat them right?


i also dont understand the save the kiwi organisation... kiwis belong on a farm, not in the wild or as pets i know of atleast one Kiwifarm that is open to new kiwis...
 
People were talking in the animal husbandry thread about making a thread about bad rescues, including the psycho youtube fox rescue lady that keeps dead foxes in her freezer. And the Canadian woman with a for profit rescue that brings unstable dogs from Texas who should have been euthanized for behavioral issues.

The Canadian woman you mention is named Nicole Simone and apparenty she has quite the history of trying to sicc lawyers on people who tell the truth about her and her "rescue". She also seems to buy a lot of likes and followers for her "music career"

https://redemptionflaws.wordpress.com/ Redemption Flaws talks about all the problems with her shitty shady "rescue" Redemption Paws which is actually a private charity (and it looks like she may be using charity money to fund her art.)

There was a LOT of Toronto press coverage:

I added them to the list.

I don't get what Nicole's goal is. Does she want to rescue dogs or not? It seems like she just wants to make money.
 
"Found" a new cat rescue through The Dodo: YouTube. Dude in Morocco rescues street cats. I'll add it to the OP.
 
Does anyone know more about this? Apparently these guys "found" and "rescued" a baby raccoon while kayaking in the ocean. I'm almost certain they threw a raccoon in the ocean for views.

Edit: I found another video. If it was just the one I could believe was maybe some freak accident. These guys are definitely throwing random animals in the ocean for fun. Sickening.

Ahhh Asian, what a surprise.
 
Thank you so much for this thread. I was a dumbass last night and thought I'd watch one of the Nick Crowley videos on fake rescues to stay 'informed', forgetting that I'm a fucking sperg and seeing bad things happen to cats fucks me up more than anything.
I just wish the people behind the staged rescues were as easily doxxed as monkeyfuckers. I want their lives ruined.
 
Sorry for the thread necro, but I wasn't sure where else to drop this. Looks like Mikayla Raines of Save-A-Fox offed herself.

I'm mobilefagging, apologies for not providing the video directly.

I saw the youtube upload and don't know what the holy hell to think. It's a very sad but bizarre video.

Ghost Archive is being a pain in the ass and honestly it's too sad of a situation to worry about that sort of thing. BPD is a hell of a drug.

Bizarre is the right word. So, as I understand it, it turns out she had BPD and was severely autistic, and killed herself because of mean comments. She didn’t strike me as that sort of person.

Also, while I understand that her husband is going through the darkest period of his life, and I am genuinely sorry for him and their daughter, he should not have made this video.

Immediately went here to see if she had a thread because this suicide looks so out of place. I used to follow her youtube channel years ago then forgot about it but I could never imagine this happening, I feel sorry for her kid, husband, the foxes... My friends and other comments online are just being angry at the invisible mean internet people who drove her to this but I can't find anything, she must have had a severe case of BPD.
