First of all, I want to express my pleasure to post for the first time in this community, YouHive is moderated by excellent and exemplary hivers and in that sense the good work is guaranteed. I believe that the objective and vision of the community lends itself to develop good content taking into account that we can make allusion or review in different formats about content creators who entertain us daily with the good work they do. I think there is a lot we can learn from other creators both on the Hive blockchain and on web2, in fact, many can be a source of inspiration for the content we create.
A few days ago there was an initiative in the community called “First initiative: Your favourite YouTuber or YouTube channel!”, in the rules it indicates that the initiative would last 1 month from the publication of the post, and well, it seems that 30 days have passed. However, I'm going to take advantage of how interesting the initiative was to share with you who is my favorite youtuber, I hope you don't think I'm participating in the initiative at the wrong time, it's just that I really want to introduce you which is that channel that I watch frequently and that has the notification bell active.
I present to you “FRANK CUESTA - YOUTUBE CHANNEL”, a channel that can also be found as @santuariolibertad. This channel is moderated by Frank Cuesta, a naturist and former Spanish tennis player who has a lifetime fighting for the rights of flora and fauna in general, as indicated in the description of his Youtube channel is a “Channel dedicated to the understanding and especially the love for life and nature”. Frank Cuesta is well known in the world of television with “Frank of the Jungle” as he had several programs on TV channels such as Animal Planet in which he showed his virtues and skills to approach animals, but most importantly, he has always been fighting against poaching and animal trafficking.
Currently, Frank is only dedicated to his Youtube channel and the animal sanctuary that he worked so hard to build, it is located in Thailand, far away from his native Spain. In his channel we can see his daily life, in the sanctuary live different species of animals that have been rescued from illegal smuggling, many arrive injured and helpless, far from their natural habitat, so Frank tries to give them the best possible treatment, he tries to cure them and then release them in the most convenient place for those animals.
While it is true that what I like most about his Youtube channel is the work of rescuing animals and how we see that they evolve to be free again (although in some cases some unfortunate ones do not survive), I also like Frank's personality, he is direct, outspoken, sometimes grumpy and with an attitude that for many may not be very sensitive, But over time I managed to understand why he behaves like that, it turns out that he is a survivor of a terrible disease called “accelerated leukemia” in which his life was in danger, then, we know that people who go through processes like these tend to see life differently, they understand more easily the things that are really important and in that sense do not get involved in nonsense or trifles.
But Frank also has a sense of humor, the way he interacts with the animals is dignified and exemplary. I never get tired of watching his videos, in the last few months he has been inviting important influencers and streamers from Spain, which has increased his popularity. So, this is my favorite YouTube channel, if you are sensitive with animals and you like a unique and real person then this channel is for you, it was a pleasure to share.
