			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Animal Communicators,</p>
<p>My friend passed on this story today about an amazing relationship between a Costa Rican man Chito and his animal companion Pocho.  I attach the story and then a brief video clip.</p>
<p>I am a big fan of Steve Irwin and the very important animal conservation work that he achieved in his lifetime, which his family is continuing.  I recommend the book Steve and Me, written by Terri Irwin, his wife.  He shows us that a lot of the challenges we have with our animal relatives are <strong>just as much</strong> to do with the beliefs and attitude <strong>WE</strong> have about them and the fact that for the longest of times humans have made themselves the enemy of many, many animal species.</p>
<p>With compassion, patience, love and effort this man shows us a wonderful example of how we could be with other species, especially ones that we have feared and believed to be man killers and nothing more&#8230;.  Thank you Chito and Pocho and thank you to Steve Irwin, in spirit and his amazing family.  Enjoy&#8230;</p>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%">

<tr>
<td width="99%" valign="top"><strong>IF you thought the legend of the horse whisperer was impressive, here&#8217;s an animal tale with even more bite. </strong><br />
<strong>Rather than trying to tame wild stallions, fearless Costa Rican fisherman Chito prefers a playful wrestle in the water with his best pal Pocho &#8211; a deadly 17ft crocodile. </strong><strong>The 52-year-old daredevil draws gasps of amazement from onlookers by wading chest-deep into the water, then whistling for his 980lb buddy &#8211; and giving him an affectionate hug. </strong><strong> </strong><br />
<strong>Crazy Chito says: &#8220;Pocho is my best friend. This is a very dangerous routine but we have a good relationship. He will look me in the eye and not attack me. </strong><strong>&#8220;It is too dangerous for anyone else to come in the water. It is only ever the two of us.&#8221; </strong><strong> </strong><br />
<strong>Chito made friends with the croc after finding him with a gunshot wound on the banks of the Central American state&#8217;s Parismina river 20 years ago. </strong><strong>He had been shot in the left eye by a cattle farmer and was close to death. </strong><strong>But Chito enlisted the help of several pals to load the massive reptile into his boat. </strong><strong>He says: &#8220;When I found Pocho in the river he was dying, so I brought him into my house.</strong>  <br />
  <br />
 <br />
<strong>&#8220;He was very skinny, weighing only around 150lb I gave him chicken and fish and medicine for six months to help him recover. </strong><br />
<strong>&#8220;I stayed by Pocho&#8217;s side while he was ill, sleeping next to him at night.. I just wanted him to feel that somebody loved him, that not all humans are bad. </strong><strong>&#8220;It meant a lot of sacrifice. I had to be there every day. I love all animals &#8211; especially ones that have suffered.&#8221; </strong><strong> </strong><br />
<strong>It took years before Chito felt that Pocho had bonded with him enough to get closer to the animal. </strong><strong>He says: &#8220;After a decade I started to work with him. At first it was slow, slow. I played with him a bit, slowly doing more. </strong><strong>&#8220;Then I found out that when I called his name he would come over to me.&#8221; </strong><strong>At one point during his recovery, Chito left the croc in a lake near his house. But as he turned to walk away, to his amazement Pocho got out of the water and began to follow him home. </strong></p>
<p><strong></strong><br />
<strong>Chito recalls: &#8220;That convinced me the crocodile could be tame.&#8221; But when he first fearlessly waded into the water with the giant reptile his family was so horrified they couldn&#8217;t bear to watch. So instead, he took to splashing around with Pocho when they were asleep. </strong><br />
<strong>Four years ago Chito showed some of his tricks to friends, including getting the animal to close his eyes on command, and they convinced him to go public with a show. </strong></p>
<p><strong></strong><br />
<strong>Now he swims and plays with Pocho as well as feeding him at the lake near his home in the lowland tropical town of Sarapiqui . </strong><br />
<strong>The odd couple have now become a major tourist attraction, with several tour operators, including Crocodile Adventures, taking visitors on touring cruises to see the pair. </strong><strong>On the Crocodile Adventures website it describes the spectacle as: &#8220;One of the most amazing things that no cruise ship passenger will want to miss, the adventure show between the man and the crocodile.&#8221;</strong> <br />
 <br />
<strong>American crocodiles, which inhabit North, Central and South America , can live to around 70 years old. It is estimated that Pocho is around 50 &#8211; almost the same age as his owner. </strong><strong>They are also said to be less aggressive than their Nile or Australian counterparts. </strong><br />
<strong>Chito, whose real name is Gilberto Shedden, was given hi nickname by friends, who also call him &#8220;Tarzan Tico&#8221; &#8211; Tico being a familiar word for a Costa Rican.. </strong></p>
<p><strong>A keen conservationist, he also offers boat tours, where he eagerly points out a variety of wildlife. </strong><strong>But he only charges a few dollars to watch the breathtaking crocodile show, claiming he does not want to cash in on Pocho. </strong><strong>He says: &#8220;He&#8217;s my friend, I don&#8217;t want to treat him like a slave or exploit him. </strong><strong>&#8220;I am happy because I rescued him and he is happy with me because he has everything he needs.&#8221;</strong></td>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Animal Communicators,</p>
<p>I have been reading and learning about the decline in bee numbers across the world.  I am fascinated to hear your views on why this is happening and what the human race should be doing about it. </p>
<p>From the bees perspective it is reasonable to assume that they have been treated pretty poorly by humans, from the general dislike of stinging creatures, to use of pesticides and other harmful chemicals, to the systematic taking of their honey for our own profits and consumption&#8230;  Let&#8217;s send out a message of love and compassion to all bees, please stay with us!  Take a look at this short trailer if you are interested in learning more.  Love and blessings, Julie XXXXX</p>
