What is the most poached animal in the world?

It’s widely believed to be the pangolin, a scaly anteater from Africa and Asia. Even with everything going on right now, we can't forget about wildlife conservation.

On April 21, you’ll be able to meet one pangolin in particular: Kulu. Rescued as a baby, Kulu must be readied for the world - and released back into it.

Pangolin: Kulu’s Journey hits Netflix care of the doc team, including my wife.

#Palestine / From British Mandate to Military Rule: A documentary exposes Israel's dark history, which drew comparisons to Nazi Germany

Danel Elpeleg's award-winning documentary, "The Governor," exposes Israel's little-known history of military rule over its Palestinian citizens from 1948 to 1968 (technically 1966). The film, based on interviews with Elpeleg's grandfather, a military governor, reveals the regime's pervasive control over every aspect of Palestinian life, including curfews, restrictions on movement, and the arbitrary power of life and death wielded by the governors.

This authority stemmed from the British Mandate's Defense Emergency Regulations (DER), initially enacted to suppress both Jewish and Arab resistance. Ironically, pre-state Zionists decried these regulations, with jurist Yaakov Shimshon Shapira even comparing them to Nazi laws [Source: Tom Segev, "1949: The First Israelis"].

Despite this initial opposition, the new Israeli state adopted the DER wholesale for its Arab population, a legacy that continues to impact Palestinian citizens today, with many still fearing reprisal for speaking out, while the majority of Israeli Jews remain unaware of this dark chapter in their nation's history, a silence perpetuated by censorship, even within the #IDF.
