Fox Receives Hydrotherapy

From Aark Wildlife
We thought this fox would never walk again, but thanks to hydrotherapy he's getting movement back to his leg!
This male fox, patient 26-1074, was found by students of Delaware Valley University on the side of the road after being hit by a car. His face was bleeding and he was completely unresponsive. After quickly rushing him to Aark, he was immediately started on supportive care. Our X-rays showed a fractured pelvis and on his initial exam, he showed little to no response in his left leg.
Due to the severity of the fracture and his condition, we weren't sure if he would ever walk again.
After a few days of supportive care he showed significant improvements and so we consulted one of our partner veterinarians to see if there was anything we could do. After that meeting, we started the fox on hydrotherapy.
We built a custom frame in-house and use a harness to hold him up in the water (which still needs some adjustments for a perfect fit). He gets 10-15 minutes of hydrotherapy every day to get him moving which has helped him regain movement in his left leg!
This fox will be with us for a while yet while he heals from his injuries and learns to walk again, but we are feeling confident in his strength and ability to heal and be released.
Catalina Island foxes nearly vanished. Now they’re a conservation success story

A crime against Laura Scudders and her natural peanut butter? Or is it just delicious?
Also, it's not really cooking, so delete if necessary, mods.
Chips con leche?
I made a thing this morning from leftovers, it was good. I can't imagine I'm the first. But I don't get results from searching. Is it a thing and does it have a name?
I poured about 12 oz of milk (last of the carton) into my big flat pan, and a little packet of brown sugar from a coffee place, like a spoonful? And a little sprinkle of cinnamon. I heated it on medium, stirring constantly to prevent scorching the bottom, until some of the liquid steamed away. Just as it came to a boil, I dumped in the leftover tortilla chips from last night and stirred to coat them thoroughly, taking the pan off the heat. Salty and sweet, crunchy and mushy, a guilty pleasure with my coffee.
I found chilaquiles blancos but they're spicy. Arroz con leche is rice. And Cinnamon Chips are dry, also seems to usually be wheat flour rather than corn/maíz. And of course there's cornflakes and milk, but they're cold and not salty or cinnamony.
If I'd thought of this when my kids were kids I'd have made it for them. And if I hadn't eaten it right away I would have taken a picture. The ingredients/flavor feel Mexican but I don't speak Spanish.
