Hope Swinimer from the United States has a big heart for
animals, especially for those who don't have a lot of support otherwise. In her
park, "Hope for Wildlife", Hope cares for orphaned and injured
animals. From owls, lynx, and otters, to these little guys who otherwise don't
get a lot of protection from wildlife organizations:
Hope is lovingly known as the "Squirrel Lady." She
cares for more than 350 of these little rodents every year. Since they are so
small, they are often not seen by drivers and end up being victims of many
traffic accidents.
She also comes across a lot of people who decide to
"adopt" wild squirrels, capture them and take them home, separating
them from their babies. Tending to such orphaned squirrels is Hope's specialty.
These newborns are just a few days old. Hope knits a small
nest for them and then tries her best to prepare them for release into the
wild.

They aren't just efficient foresters, they're also skilled
tinkers. This furry burglar is in the process of stealing some toilet paper for
his nest.
Hope's goal is to inspire people to protect wild animals.
"Everyone knows that dogs and cats are intelligent, have feelings, and
feel pain. But many people have little or no connection to wild animals."
