Meet Speckles. He’s a serious guy who can stare into your soul and make you question your life choices. Fiercely loyal and loving with his whole heart, Speckles may seem intense, but he’s definitely a softie at heart. A farm favorite, he’s the kind of ostrich who’ll stand guard and make sure everything is running smoothly on the farm.

Universal Ostrich Farms, a small remote farm in the beautiful Kootenays of British Columbia, has been ordered by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) to cull their entire herd of 400 healthy ostriches—animals they have raised for over 30 years. The farm urgently needs support to cover legal and operational costs as they challenge this decision in Federal Court.
