Interspecies relationships are not new to us, but we'd be fascinated to understand what communication was taking place between these two. Taroha decided to stop by Maxwell's stockade before heading into the forest, with both parties enjoying the encounter; despite Taroha bringing his foot into the meeting, and Maxwell sucking on Taroha's head! Maxwell is our sole long-term resident, due to permanent blindness. All the elephants know him and, while some steer clear, others like Taroha and Mzinga will swing by to greet him. Between them, the Keepers, and a lot of wild warthog friends, Max is never short of visitors. Read his story, and consider supporting his ongoing care through an adoption this #FosterFriday at:

Dr. James Orr's seven-hour course on Peterson Academy: In Plato - The Dawn of Thought. Available now on In this course, James Orr explores Plato's intellectual and cultural world, examining his challenges to dominant philosophical traditions and the influence of Socrates on his thought. We delve into Plato's Dialogues, which capture Socrates' character and ideas, and expose the ignorance of assumed experts. The course covers Plato's Theory of Forms, his vision of the ideal city-state, and the afterlives of his ideas, tracing their influence through key figures and their fusion with Hebraic and Christian traditions. We conclude by discussing the enduring relevance of Platonic thought in mathematics, myth, and meaning, and its significance for navigating truth, knowledge, and the human condition in our current age.

This #WorldAnimalDay, we're spotlighting an extraordinary rescue that unfolded earlier this week. During a morning patrol, our pilot spotted two bulls with arrow wounds. Mid-flight to help the elephants, we received an urgent call from Kenya Wildlife Service: An infant elephant was trapped in a well, with frantic mother standing guard and not allowing anyone to get close to rescue him. We immediately diverted to the scene. Pilot Hamish dropped the team nearby, then used the helicopter to shepherd the mother away from the well. On the ground, Roan leapt into the water and, with a few determined pushes, managed to heave the calf to freedom. The baby bolted toward his mum and the team watched them happily reunite, before returning to their original task: helping the two arrowed elephants. Both were successfully darted and treated by the SWT/KWS Tsavo Vet Unit, rounding out the afternoon with three successful, life-saving operations. With your help, we can be there for wildlife in need:

The newest course on Peterson Academy releases tonight, Dr John Vervaeke’s nine-hour course: The Primacy of Beauty. Enroll now for immediate access at Peterson Academy. In this course, Dr. Vervaeke explores the profound relationship between beauty, cognition, and meaning through an interdisciplinary lens combining philosophy, cognitive science, and religious thought. The lectures examine how beauty functions as a bridge between perception and understanding, fostering deeper connections between truth, goodness, and reality. Dr. Vervaeke demonstrates how beauty serves as a crucial element in meaning-making, wisdom cultivation, and spiritual development, ultimately proposing it as a response to the contemporary meaning crisis. The course concludes by positioning beauty as essential to developing a deep love for being itself, uniting scientific and spiritual perspectives in pursuit of wisdom and virtue.

A young lion 🦁 ventured into a rural area at night—specifically a place where livestock were kept—and killed a cow. Footage reveals that, after feeding, the lion even attempted to escape by scaling a wall, underscoring just how close these encounters between humans and predators are becoming. This incident occurred near Gir National Park in the Junagadh region, a primary habitat for Asiatic lions outside of Africa. Such situations reflect an increasingly common reality: wild animals are losing their territories due to human encroachment and are being forced to venture into populated areas in search of food. The result is direct contact that often escalates into conflict. The expansion of settlements and human activities is steadily shrinking natural spaces... and encounters like this make it abundantly clear that the boundary between wild and urban areas is rapidly blurring.

An extraordinary story from Ithumba Head Keeper Benjamin🔊 Several years ago, this bull appeared and calmly walked into a stockade. Such behaviour is highly unusual for a wild elephant — so Benjamin and the team went to investigate: They found he had been struck in the ankle by an arrow. Once he saw his message for help had been received, the bull walked back out of the stockade and waited. We mobilised the SWT/KWS Tsavo Vet Unit, who treated his injury. Joint wounds can have lethal implications, so this intervention very likely saved his life. Despite being wild from birth and wounded by human hands, he understood we offered a place of sanctuary in the landscape - likely communicated to him by our ex-orphans and other elephants we have treated over the years. The bull has returned from time to time ever since — as he did at the weekend — just checking in and saying hello to those who came to his aid. Read more:

I’ve obtained internal government documents via a Freedom of Information request that reveal a coordinated effort by the UK Government to influence the content of television programming, including fictional storylines. The documents show direct collaboration between the Department for Culture, Media and Sport and broadcasters like ITV, Channel 4, and the BBC. Officials discussed embedding government messaging into soap operas and entertainment shows, not just on COVID and vaccines, but also climate change, mental health, extremism, and “social cohesion.” Broadcasters were encouraged to tailor narratives for “hard-to-reach” audiences, including ethnic minorities, young people, and working-class viewers. Some programmes were rebranded entirely to align with government campaigns. Others included plotlines shaped by civil servants. These documents have never been seen publicly until now.

🚨 Never seen on X before! 🚨 What is the true origin of those who call themselves ‘Palestinians’ today? This clip is taken from an interview with historian Dr. Rivka Shpak Lissak, who has published several books on the true origins of Arabs in the Land of Israel — when they arrived, from where, and in what numbers. (Links to her books in English can be found in the comment section.) In this 2024 interview, Dr. Shpak Lissak, now over 90 years old, remains sharp and clear-minded, offering a detailed historical account of the British Mandate period and the significant Arab migration driven by improved economic conditions brought about by the British and Jewish populations. Dr. Lissak not only wrote and published books about this history — she also lived through it. The clip you’re about to see is from an extensive interview (over an hour) conducted by Dr. Roy Yuzbitz. The full interview is available on his YouTube channel (link in the comments).

Larry Ellison—owner of Oracle, CBS, and now TikTok—tells Tony Blair about his plan to use digital ID to "unify" all data on each country's citizens "so it can be consumed and used by" his AI models. "We have to take all of this data... and move it into a single, if you will, unified data platform." "When we want to ask a question, we've provided that AI model with all the data they need to understand our country." "We need to unify all of the national data, put it into a database where it's easily consumable by the AI model, and then ask whatever question you like."

The wiggly thing on his face? Nsimba, Naipoki's newborn son, is still working it all out. In time, it'll become a multi-purpose tool, but for now, it flops about and swings wildly! Nsimba is growing up and learning all the time in the wild, just as elephants should. His mother, Naipoki, however, trod a different path: she fell into a well – twice – when she was just two months old. The second time, predators reached her and we stepped in to rescue her before it was too late. Being raised by humans meant we were there to witness each of her milestone moments. When she went wild, she never forgot this – and when she became a mum, she came back to introduce us to her new baby, Nsimba! Now we get to watch his milestones too. Nsimba's birth was one of our highlights of 2025 – and one of 18 wild-born calves this year. Read his birth story:

I had a chance to sit down with Demis Hassabis to discuss his goal of solving intelligence and using it to help cure all disease. But what I found most compelling wasn't the scale of the mission, but Demis Hassabis himself. His level of focus is extraordinary. We talked about the personal cost of pursuing a mission this ambitious, and the tension between the two sides of his work: the CEO of a commercial entity and the scientist driven by a humanitarian vision. It was an absolutely fascinating conversation, and a deep honor to speak with one of the most important minds of our time. Thank you to the Google DeepMind team for having me.
