Entertainment / Show


Year of production: (2023)




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.


Today: «Loss»
Episode 11

This episode is dedicated to the loss of our pets. Those of us, who have lived with pets and loved them deeply and truly, know how much pain their absence causes. Anna Kandaraki, Lina Giannarou, Nikos Dimou and Stefanos Batsas talk about the last act of living together with these life-changing creatures. We discuss with author Nikos Dimou about what we should learn from the way our animals live and die and from their dignity. We examine with veterinarian Stefanos Batsas what exactly euthanasia means, when it is necessary, how it is done and why it is our duty to be next to our animals at that time. Finally, we discuss with clinical psychologist and psychotherapist Anna Kandaraki and journalist Lina Giannarou the aspects and stages of... four-legged mourning, about how we talk to children about the death of our pets and about the need, not to replace a departing pet, but to put a new link in the chain of love, adopting another creature when we feel ready for that.
