Joshua Townsend+FollowTiger Gets a 'Paw-dicure' from Five Vets!Did you hear about Tschuna, the 17-stone Amur tiger at Yorkshire Wildlife Park? She had to get a super delicate paw operation because of an ingrown toenail—yep, even tigers get those! Five vets teamed up to sedate her (which is apparently a huge deal for tigers) and snip off the problem claw in under 15 minutes. Now she’s recovering like a champ and already showing signs of her playful self. Princess Tschuna is definitely living her best life! #TigerTales #WildlifeRescue #AnimalCare #Pets140Share
Richard Barry+Followhow do you even make a stray dog trust you without freaking it out?So, I spotted this stray dog near my apartment, and I really want to help. But every time I get close, it backs away or looks super scared. I don’t want to make things worse or freak it out even more. Has anyone been through this before? What’s the best way to show a stray dog you’re not a threat? Should I bring treats or just sit nearby and wait? I want to do the right thing and maybe even help it find a home. Any tips or stories would be awesome! #petadvice #straydogs #animalcare #dogrescue #Pets #Dogs161Share
