10.12.2018 - The thin air on Mount Teide should not be underestimated. Not everyone can tolerate the lack of oxygen at such a high altitude, especially asthmatics. A hiker felt the effects of this in his own body on Sunday. He suffered serious health problems and had to be evacuated by a GES helicopter. He was taken to a medical centre.
A hiker in La Palma fell several metres close to the LP-4 near Puntallana. He suffered a moderate leg injury. After his rescue, he was taken to the general hospital.

09.12.2018 - The animal welfare organisation Brigada Rescate Animal Orión is looking for the culprit who tortured a Podenco bitch to death. The animal rights activists were alerted after a passer-by in Calle Canino, La Esparanza became aware of a dog's whimpering next to a garbage container. The animal rescuers were quickly on the spot and found a dog whose head and nose were bleeding, probably from a blow with a shovel or something similar. The dog had been poisoned and was so emaciated that she had probably not eaten for weeks. They drove the animal to a veterinary clinic.
The bitch was also so hypothermic that the thermometer, which indicates a minimum of 32 degrees, did not register. Although they were able to warm her up and tried every means to save the animal's life, she died a few hours later. But the animal rescuers didn't want to leave it at that. They are looking for the man who maltreated this animal so badly. more...
