Puppy pilgrimage
A dog in China swims 4km every day to feed her newborn puppies who are stranded on an island.
Huahua - a stray dog from Chongqing city - gave birth to four puppies on Shanhuba Island, but heavy rain means the road linking the small isle in the Yangtze River to the mainland has become inaccessible.
Twice a day Huahua swims 1.2 km to the island every day to nurse her babies before swimming another 1.1 km back to the city to feed herself.
The dog makes her pilgrimage once in the morning around 7am, and again at 7pm, when she spends the night with her puppies.
Two days ago, the water rose again, and the mother has moved her children to a higher point on the island.
