I'm loving @AlaskaAir's wild new route from Anchorage to Tokyo Narita.
It'll be ~8 hours in the air on a 737 MAX 8 covering 3,434 miles. (Alaska's second-longest MAX route after Seattle-Iceland.)
It's Alaska's first time connecting ANC and NRT. How cool.

MAJOR WON’T BE PUT DOWN. A FEDERAL COURT JUST SAVED HIS LIFE.
A Travis County court ordered Major euthanized. On October 26, a federal court in Austin stopped it for good.
Under the ADA, the Court granted a permanent injunction, finding Shane Lilly is a qualified individual with a disability and losing Major would be irreparable harm.
The City of Austin is now permanently barred from euthanizing him.
Within 30 days he goes to a licensed rescue outside Austin and Travis County, then at least 30 days of decompression with veterinary behaviorist Dr. Kenneth Martin to rehabilitate and retrain him.
Strict conditions: secure enclosure, muzzle and leash, $100,000 liability coverage, court reports every 30 days for a year.
Per @edayforcongress, the court used her DeFURment program recommendations. Thanks to Shane’s attorney, Christina E. Ponig of Fletcher Held.
Copies of the court order are in the comments.
A veteran’s service dog lives. What do you want to tell Shane and Major?

💔 IN MEMORY OF JESSE ADAMS — A TRUE HERO FOR ANIMALS 💔
It is with enormous sadness that we have learned of the tragic death of Jesse Adams, founder of RainCoast Dog Rescue Society in Canada, who lost his life while carrying out an animal rescue mission in one of the most dangerous areas of Ukraine.
Jesse dedicated his life to saving animals, even when it meant putting his own life at risk.
We first came to know Jesse in 2021, when Afghanistan fell to the Taliban. Jesse and RainCoast were among the extraordinary organisations that came together to assist KSAR with the evacuation of 285 cats and dogs, helping many find loving forever homes.
Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Jesse travelled to the border to help fleeing families and their pets, providing veterinary care, supplies and assistance getting animals to safety.
He returned repeatedly, undertaking increasingly dangerous missions.
Most recently, Jesse worked alongside Animal Rescue Kharkiv, rescuing hundreds of animals from devastated frontline communities under constant threat from drones, missiles and artillery.
These were extraordinary acts of compassion and courage in the face of unimaginable danger.
Jesse knew the risks. He knew every mission could be his last. Yet he continued because he believed animals caught in conflict deserved protection just as much as those living in peace.
Those of us working in animal rescue in conflict zones understand and accept these risks. But few possess the courage to repeatedly travel towards danger when everyone else is trying to escape it.
Jesse was one of those very special people.
His death is a devastating loss to his family, friends, RainCoast and the international animal rescue community.
Our hearts go out to everyone who knew and loved him, particularly the Ukrainian rescuers who worked alongside him.
His legacy lives on in every animal he saved and every rescuer he inspired.
Rest in peace, Jesse. The world has lost an extraordinary human being, and the animals have lost a true champion. 🐾💔
With love and deepest respect,
Louise and everyone at War Paws

With Fat Bear Week over, Denali National Park and Preserve declared “Chunky Puppy Day” last week, and staged a competition to see which of their 6-month-old Alaskan huskies had grown the heaviest.
The puppies will begin training as sled dogs to patrol the park.
