This is the fourth season of episodes of the TV show on (ERT) that highlights the meaningful connection between animal welfare and compassion.
"Tales for Tails" is a weekly one-hour program curated and presented by journalist Tasoula Eptakoili. The show narrates stories of animals and people, revealing unknown information about the fascinating world of animals through specials, reports, and interviews.
Cats and dogs, horses and parrots, bears and foxes, donkeys and turtles, migratory birds, and marine mammals pass in front of the camera of director Panagiotis Kountouras and become the protagonists of the show.
In each episode, people who offer protection and care to animals, from the unknown volunteers of animal welfare organizations to very famous people from various fields (arts, letters, politics, science), talk about their special relationship with the quadrupeds and unfold the emotions that this coexistence provokes.
Every story is different, but they all have something in common: the search for the essence of animal welfare and compassion.
In addition, the show's special collaborators provide us with simple but practical and useful tips on how to take care of our animal friends.

In this episode, we travel to Messolonghi. There, in a unique landscape of unparalleled beauty, we chat with three people who know really well and love the Messolonghi-Aitoliko Lagoon, a rare ecosystem with more than 280 species of birds, 800 species of plants, and 68 species of fish. With environmentalist and geologist Sissia Roussi, a member of the “Messolonghi by locals” team, we enter a “gaita”, that is, a traditional wooden boat, without keel, ideal for shallow waters, and we tour the lagoon. Giannis Selimas, environmentalist, head of the Management Unit of Messolonghi National Park and Protected Areas of Western Central Greece, talks to us about the valuable but also fragile biodiversity of the area. And George Katselis, professor of Fish Biology and president of the Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture of the University of Patras, based in Messolonghi, tells us what happens with life under the surface of the water. Finally, we meet the passionate volunteers of the “Messolonghi strays” team who ensure that the former Messolonghi strays find care, love, respect, and their forever homes.
