Titanoboa is an extinct snake which lived approximately 60 million years ago during the Paleogene Period. Its fossils were first discovered in coal mines in La Guajira, Colombia in 2009.

Volunteers from “Rescuers Without Borders” discovered Kratos collapsed in a muddy hole in the hazardous landfill on a freezing day. They were heartbroken to see the dog’s defeated expression, as he clearly believed he had a loving family before ending up in the godforsaken landfill. Unfortunately, Kratos’ story is not uncommon…

They get there as quickly as possible, Luna breathing heavily but still raising her head to beg for her babies’ lives. The volunteer’s vet gave an emergency…
Pregnancy is such a beautiful experience, therefore we try to record every moment, even the tiniest things like every centimeter that our bump develops. We wonder what our infant will look like when it is in our arms as they become bigger every day.

We invited members of our Parent Squad to post their bump-to-baby photographs, sort of like a before-and-after photo, because we wanted to share this lovely…
