This #NationalMarineWeek we're urging everyone to protect marine life. π¦
Flying rings can seriously injure or kill seals. Choose solid frisbees instead and keep beaches clean.

A pair of young bison bulls in a UK sanctuary have been taught to self medicate, specifically by vaccinating themselves. The animals have been trained to lean into needles, which is less stressful than the typical procedure: shooting darts into them.
