Welp

For over two decades, the skies above Croatia witnessed a love story that defied instinct and time. Klepetan, a white stork, flew nearly 9,000 miles each spring from South Africa to a small Croatian village just to reunite with Malena, his injured mate who could no longer migrate. Malena had been grounded by a hunter’s bullet in 1993, but her life was saved by retired school janitor Stjepan Vokić, who gave her warmth, safety, and eventually, a soulmate.

Klepetan and Malena raised 66 chicks together. While Malena stayed home caring for their young, Klepetan taught them how to fly, hunt, and journey into the wild. Their bond wasn’t built on biology alone it was built on loyalty and sacrifice. When winter came, Malena stayed behind with Vokić, and Klepetan braved the journey south alone. Yet each spring, he returned never late, never lost. Even after Malena passed in 2021, Klepetan still visits her resting place beneath an apple tree, a ritual now continued into 2024.

This is more than a bird story. It’s a reminder that love can cross oceans, defy survival instincts, and persist even after death. In an age of fleeting connection, Klepetan and Malena proved that devotion has wings and it never forgets where home is.

“Never Paint a Turtle's Shell”
Painting a turtle's shell isn't harmless; it's a silent form of cruelty. Its shell is alive, full of nerves and blood vessels. Through it, it breathes, regulates its temperature, and senses. Covering it with paint blocks its ability to absorb sunlight, essential for its metabolism and bone development. It also prevents it from naturally eliminating bacteria and fungi. Many die slowly from infections or poisoning. It's not art. It's suffering. And often, a torture that ends in silence.
