I work with volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust
Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain.
However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.
I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰)on the ground.
When I arrived, I saw a 2-to-3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.
I examined the chick(雏鸟)and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put
it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.
The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket
to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.
Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of
the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also
encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed
home to see what news the night might bring.
A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called
to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking
healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all—LUNCH! The parents
had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.

Nola (August 21, 1974—November 22, 2015) was a northern white rhino who lived at the San Diego Zoo
Safari Park near Escondido, California. At her death, she was one of only four remaining northern white
rhinos in the world. The other three lived in Kenya. World Rhino Day, held on September 2, is to raise
awareness(意识) of the less than 30, 000 other rhinos left on Earth.
“Rhinos need our help today, not tomorrow,” Nola’s lead keeper Jane Kennedy said. “Last year we lost
over 1, 200 rhinos just in South Africa. If we continue to lose more than 1, 000 rhinos a year, in 10 to 20
years all the rhinos on the planet will be gone. ”
“Unfortunately, most animals are in danger of dying out because of humans,” Kennedy says. “Humans
have either poached animals, or because there are over seven billion of us, we’ve taken up too much of the
world’s resources”. Poachers illegally hunt rhinos for their horns. They sell the horns for thousands of
dollars per pound, to be used for art, jewelry, and decorations. Experts believe that one rhino is poached
every eight hours.
In 1975, the San Diego Zoo Institute for Conservation Research started the Frozen Zoo, a program
through which researchers have collected cell (细胞) samples from more than 8, 000 different types of
animals, including the northern white rhino. Scientists hope that by studying the rhino cells, they will get
greater understanding of it, and will find ways to increase its numbers.
Jane Kennedy describes World Rhino Day as “a celebration of rhinos along with an awareness
campaign for everybody across the world to know that rhinos need our help. “At the San Diego Zoo,
children and adults are welcome to visit and speak with zookeepers to learn about rhinos. But you don’t
have to live in San Diego to celebrate World Rhino Day. It is observed around the world, with zoos and
wildlife parks holding special events and programs to teach people about rhinos, and enable them to see the
animals up close. For more information, go to www. worldrhinoday. org.
