Feature:
Waving a Magic (Mascara) Wand
   “Little-known fact: Using mascara can be good for injured & orphaned animals.

   …workers at the Appalachian Wildlife Refuge in North Carolina are using use
mascara wands to clean & groom small, furry creatures in need.

   The plastic wands can remove fleas, nits, & other bugs embedded in fur. They can also
clean the syringes used for feeding animals. Back in 2017, staff member Savannah
Trantham wrote a Facebook post detailing how recycled wands can help. The centre has
since received thousands of donations. 

   ‘Because of the incredible response, we are now packaging the wands & sharing with
other wildlife rehabilitators & facilities,’ Appalachian Wildlife Refuge co-founder
Kimberly Brewster said.”
