When Good People Save Animals

We often hear about the cruelty of people to animals; of abuse, of negligence. But I'd like to believe that most of us love, cherish and protect our fellow animals when we can. You don't need to look further than these great photos and the stories behind them, of people dedicating their life's work to animals, risking themselves to save animals and showing the kind of kindness we should all have in our hearts.

This villager also thought of his pets first when the floods came in in Cuttack City, India - but his were kittens and not a dog. Same amount of nobility in my eyes.

This is Adam Warwick, a biologist that helped a drowning black bear that ran into the ocean in fear of the humans trying to calm it with a tranquilizer. It made it to the water just as the sedative kicked in, and would have died if not for Warwick's quick action.

Easy as riding a bike ... Thx Ramey H!

THIS IS THE DARNDEST THING YOU HAVE EVER SEEN AND IT INVOLVED OF ALL THINGS, RIDING A BICYCLE.... GIVES YOU A NEW LOOK AT HOW OUR BRAIN WORKS.

A fascinating look at neuroplasticity

Ever hear that phrase "It's just like riding a bike?"  It turns out riding a bike isn't actually all that easy.  Take this bike, for example.  It looks like an ordinary bicycle but with one tiny difference.  You may think you can ride it, but you better think again.

Frequently Asked Questions


Does Lily have obstacle avoidance?
Currently, Lily does not have any obstacle avoidance capabilities. We have found that most outdoor activities do not need obstacle avoidance because Lily can follow the user’s path. But again, there are no guarantees that Lily will not hit anything while it is following you. If Lily is about to hit an object you can press the middle button on the tracking device and Lily will stop, hold its position, and continue to film you.
How much does Lily cost?
You can pre-order Lily today for $499 USD. After pre-sales are over, Lily will be priced at $999 plus applicable taxes and shipping. Ships February 2016
Will Lily videos have sound?
Yes, the tracking device has a microphone that records high quality sound. Lily automatically synchronizes audio from the tracking device with video it records.
Can Lily stream video?
Lily streams low-resolution live video to the companion app to help you frame your shots.
