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.
