Newhouse Wildlife Rescue
IMPORTANT PSA: This time of year, turtles are crossing roads looking for food, mates, or the perfect place to lay their eggs. Please keep an eye out while driving!

If you spot a turtle in the road:

Make sure you’re safe first - pull over carefully.

Move the turtle in the direction it was going, never back the way it came.

Don’t pick it up by the tail as it can hurt them!

For snappers, use a car mat or gently hold the back of the shell just over the hind legs. Do not pick them up by the front or sides of the shell as they have long necks and can bite.

Never take a turtle with you - just help it safely across.

Let’s keep them safe this season. 💚

I want to be honest with you.

This work is breaking me open right now.

Yesterday, we said goodbye to someone we’ve loved for years — a loss we saw coming but were never ready for. Today, a phone call from Iowa State brought more devastating news about a resident we’ve been fighting for. Grief has a way of compounding. It doesn’t wait for you to finish mourning one loss before delivering the next.

And yet, yesterday morning, I sat in a courtroom— trying to compel someone, anyone, to care that the University of Missouri Veterinary Hospital killed four of our lambs YEARS ago. Without our consent. Without consequence. Not a single one.

This is the architecture of the problem. The legal systems, the economic systems, the cultural systems — none of them were built with farmed animals in mind. They were built around them, to use them, to render their suffering invisible. And fighting within those systems while simultaneously grieving their victims is a particular kind of exhaustion that I’m not sure has a name.

Writing an uplifting post, pretending it’s all rescued cows and green pastures, while the world drives past skaughter bound trucks on the highway and fills grocery carts without a second thought can make mourning one cow feel almost embarrassing. It isn’t. But can you understand why the dissonance feels that way?

We cannot rescue our way out of this. The math doesn’t work, and we’ve always known it. What we are really doing here — what we’re hoping we’re doing — is demonstrating that these lives matter. That attention paid to one animal is not sentimental. It is moral practice.

If that message has reached you, we hope you’ll carry it forward — not just in feeling, but in your choices.

📸: Jane, one of the few lucky ones to make it to sanctuary.

More on our two residents when we can find our way through the grief. Please be kind as we navigate.

Tick populations are expanding. Lyme disease cases have roughly tripled over two decades. You can buy a permethrin yard spray for $30-50 per application. It kills ticks on contact. It also kills butterflies, bees, dragonflies, and firefly larvae on contact. By September you've spent $200 and coated your yard six times.

Four animals were running tick suppression before the spray truck arrived.

The opossum consumes up to 5,000 ticks per season. She walks through tall grass, ticks latch onto her fur, and she grooms them off and eats them with over 90 percent efficiency. Her body temperature is too low for rabies to survive. She is a tick vacuum that is nearly immune to the disease the ticks carry.

The wild turkey scratches through leaf litter where tick nymphs concentrate — consuming them along with beetles, grubs, and seeds.

The eastern fence lizard carries a protein in her blood that kills the Lyme bacterium inside feeding ticks. The tick survives but is decontaminated. She's a living Lyme-disease neutralizer.

The guinea fowl — if you've heard them — are the loudest, most aggressive tick consumers in the bird world. A small flock can clear an entire yard perimeter.

The spray killed the fireflies and the butterflies. The ticks came back. The team didn't.
