Video by @renan_ozturk // Lucky strike. This was the first shot on location for the @natgeochannel #Explorer show "The Yellow Brick Road" which airs tonight at 10pm EST /9 Central! The show exposes the true path of conflict gold that is used for our jewelry, our phones and computers. Our journey started here in Goma and went on to visit warlords deep in the jungle of North Kivu as well as government certified 'conflict free' gold mines and other parts of the supply chain. In this particular location we saw the drastic differences in wealth in the community generated from the gold and other minerals. The official stats in how much gold comes out of North Kivu is zero, but we filmed quite the opposite. There is a lot to this important story, watch the show tonight night to find out more! #conflictgold #DRC #congo ~ @j.j.kelley @elaishastokes @taylorfreesolo @taniarashid @aldo_astoria @camp4collective

Video by @joelsartore | A female little owl (Athena noctua) at Centro Fauna Selvatica "Il Pettirosso" near Modena, Italy. This owl was found in early December, most likely suffering from head trauma likely due to a crash. After one week she was placed in a large aviary with 3 other owls, and just a month later she was released back into the wild. The odd shape of this little owl’s pupil is unique, but she has no vision problems. It is simply an aesthetic blemish from birth. The opportunity to photograph this animal was made possible by @greenteenteam, an organization promoting youth involvement in nature and wildlife conservation. To see an image of this owl, check out @joelsartore! . . #littleowl #owls #birdofprey #animalrehab #animalconservation #photoark #natgeo

Os cachorros da ilha Baffin estão entre os mais resistentes, fortes, inteligentes, obedientes e, obviamente, belos cães do mundo. Também conhecidos como Cão Inuíte Canadense, eles foram trazidos da Sibéria para a América do Norte pela primeira vez pelo povo Thule há mais de mil anos. Às vezes são identificados como a mais antiga e rara raça pura de caninos domesticaods por povos indígenas. Há muitas histórias fascinantes sobre esses cachorros se você está interessado em ler mais sobre isso. Na imagem, os cães esperam pela janta de foca fresquinha. Estamos a cerca de 400 km de jornada no oceano congelado próximo ao fiorde Gibbs, na costa leste da ilha Baffin, província Nunavut, Ártico Canadense…" Repost @natgeoadventure Photo: @mikelibecki  We all know this feeling right?  The dogs of Baffin Island are some of the toughest, strongest, smartest, most obedient, and of course, most beautiful dogs in the world…also known as the Canadian Inuit Dog (qimmiq is 'dog' in the Inuit language), they were first brought from Siberia to North America by the Thule people over 1,000 years ago. They are sometimes referred to as the oldest and rarest remaining purebred indigenous domestic canines. There is a lot fascinating history about these dogs if you are looking for something really interesting to read more about.  Here, the dogs are waiting for their fresh seal dinner…we were about 250 miles into our journey on the frozen ocean near Gibbs Fjord, east coast of Baffin Island, Nunavut, Canadian Arctic… #joyineering #cachorro #cao #caes #inuite #canada
