Sanctuary News
June 2008
The heat of summer has settled into south
central Texas. Mild spring temperatures and the promise of
rain have once again evaporated as we head into yet another
parched summer season. The primates at the Wildlife Rescue
& Rehabilitation (WRR) sanctuary come from tropical, hot
climates and they fare well in the heat, given fresh water
and shady retreats from the midday sun. The cougars nap on
their wooded rocky cliff, the bears seek the comfort of their
dark dens, and the pigs relax in their muddy wallow under
a tree. The pastures are stocked with fresh hay bales to supplement
the diet of the mules, donkeys, and sheep who roam our arid
acres.
The brown pastures and threats of wildfires
serve as real and dangerous reminders of the global climate
crisis and our need to act to preserve the Earth for her human
and non-human inhabitants. Everyone can help in big and small
ways. Please join WRR in protecting
our planet and all its life.
Best wishes,
Angela Grimes, Associate Executive Director
