The Power of Love.

Lil’ Drac is a little orphaned short-tailed bat (murciélago de rabo corto). This little baby bat was very lucky as it got rescued by Weatherford, Texas Bat World Sanctuary. It is a no-profit organization dedicated towards the preservation of hundreds of bats.
Bat World Sanctuary offers rehabilitation and release programs and even lifelong sanctuary programs to non releasable bats. Bat population is in a rapid decline. More than half of the native bats of USA are endangered. Watch this man giving a loving care to this baby bat.

RELEASE PROGRAM = programa de puesta en libertad
LIFELONG = para toda la vida
BAT POPULATION = población de murciélagos
ENDAGERED = en peligro

THINGS WE NEED TO LEARN FROM OUR DOGS.

The Advantages of Owning a Dog

There's a reason dogs have long been called a man's best friend. Their loyalty, intelligence, devotion and affection are incredibly rewarding. From taking a long walk together on a beautiful spring morning, being greeted by a happily wagging tail at the end of a long day to relaxing at home in each other's company, owning a dog can raise spirits and engender a sense of wellbeing like almost nothing else.
And of course for all the love you put in, a dog will give you it back tenfold.

REWARDING = gratificante, satisfactorio......... TAIL = cola
GREET = saludar, dar la bienvenida.................. WELLBEING = bienestar
WAG = menear, mover...................................... TENFOLD = multiplicado por diez


Recent studies show that those of us who own a pet are usually healthier and happier in our lives than those who don't - and dog owners are particularly privileged.



Above all, dogs are great fun. They can make you laugh, even if you've had a terrible day, and they're always there for a reassuring hug when you need it. A dog's primary wish in life is to make you, its owner, happy.

How noble - and cool - is that?
