"It’s called ‘walking in beauty,’" said MoonDream, an artist, musician and storyteller, of the Native American philosophy that all life is sacred.
The Wendell Full Moon Coffeehouse commences its 41st season with a special show featuring Wendell’s own Medicine Mammals as both the performer and the beneficiary. Medicine Mammals, a non-profit wildlife facility funded by donations and grants to raise and release injured and orphaned wildlife and offers educational programs, from a native voice and perspective, about wildlife and the important role animals play in sharing the Earth with humans.The organization works with local veterinarians and raises orphaned, injured, sick and/or starving wildlife, with the help of about a half dozen volunteers who care for the animals until their release back to the wild. Among the animals served are bats, beavers, raccoons, foxes, squirrels and chipmunks.All proceeds from sales of crafts, cultural sharing or wildlife programs go to specialized milk formulas, food, temporary housing, vaccines and medical care for these animals.
In addition to volunteering or making monetary donations, interested persons can support the work of Medicine Mammals by gathering wild nuts and other summer and fall foods to be stored for the animals to eat in the spring, so they can sample the wild food they will need to eat later in life.
