Don't get too mad when Eastern Cottontails eat you Don't get too mad when Eastern Cottontails eat your wildflowers and veggies. They are short-lived and have a tough life. 

Did you know they can sprint up to 18 miles per hour in a zigzag pattern to evade predators, and their little cotton-ball tail alerts other rabbits to danger while distracting predators? 

Always keep your pets a safe distance from all wildlife. #wildneighbors

After years of picking up litter, I felt compelled to do something about the most littered item on Earth. One that harms wildlife, pollutes waterways, and leaves behind toxic chemicals and plastic long after it's discarded. (trt :25 seconds with audio)

Billy is currently in foster care with City Dogs R Billy is currently in foster care with City Dogs Rescue and is looking for his forever home. 

Not quite ready to adopt? Consider fostering instead. Fosters provide a safe, loving temporary home while helping rescue dogs prepare for adoption—and every foster home opens the door for another dog in need to be saved. 

Fostering gives rescue dogs a chance to live in a home environment while they wait for adoption, and many rescue groups rely on foster families to save more animals. @cdckrescue

In 2006, I documented American horses bound for sl In 2006, I documented American horses bound for slaughter, from a holding pen in Texas to Mexico. Back then, only three foreign-owned slaughterhouses remained in the US. However, killer buyers trucked thousands of horses across our borders.

Now, 20 years later, Congress is debating the SAFE Act, which would finally halt the shipping of American horses to Canada and Mexico for slaughter. 

Two decades have passed since I took these photographs; we cannot let another twenty years slip by.

Since Georgia Dodson launched Miri’s Haven Senior Since Georgia Dodson launched Miri’s Haven Senior Dog Rescue in 2021, the nonprofit has rescued more than 700 senior dogs in need. I fostered — and later adopted — one of those special seniors, Jacob, a few years ago.

I first connected with Georgia while at @icp, when we collaborated on a photography project called The Underdogs, with another rescue she was involved with at the time. 
https://milaniphoto.com/the-underdogs-2/

What Georgia and her team have built with Miri’s Haven @mirishaven has changed the lives of hundreds of dogs who otherwise may have been overlooked, and just as deeply, the lives of the people lucky enough to love them. Watching the impact she’s made through relentless advocacy, rescue, and heart has been incredibly inspiring. 

Senior dogs deserve this kind of superhero. @mirishaven #seniordogrescue #seniordogs #adopt #foster

Raphael was rescued from an undisclosed animal res Raphael was rescued from an undisclosed animal research facility by Beagle Freedom Project in 2019. “Raffy” became my foster pup before eventually finding his forever home.

Now, BFP is helping oversee the placement of 500 beagles released from Ridglan Farms, a commercial breeding facility accused of severe animal cruelty, including filthy conditions and surgeries allegedly performed without anesthesia. After a 2025 probable cause ruling for criminal mistreatment, the facility agreed to surrender its breeding license by July 2026 and released 1,500 beagles to rescue organizations for adoption.
