When the first real rain falls after the dry season, the whole island breathes. The volcanic soil of Ngazidja drinks it, the vanilla orchids of Ndzuwani open, the children run outside, and the smell of wet earth mixes with clove and ylang-ylang in a way that no perfume house has ever captured. The first rain in Comoros is not weather. It is resurrection.
You marvel at the Ethiopian wolf, Hamadryas baboon, and Walia ibex that inhabit Ethiopia's unique highlands and rift valleys. You observe that Ethiopians typically keep goats, sheep, and donkeys for both companionship and labor purposes. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
