The Farm Animal & Wildlife Project in 2026

by Heather Green | Jun 19, 2026

The purpose of this post is to share some recent work I’ve been involved with in the Farm Animal & Wildlife Project during 2026. It has been an enjoyable and busy year so far working with farm and wild creatures. I’ve been grateful to be able to work with a variety of different kinds of animals this year so far.

At the start of this year, January 2026, I went out to Raymond Wildlife Area near Flagstaff, AZ to work with some wild bison who live there. It was a beautiful experience to connect with a large group of bison who were living happily in their herd. They told me how much they cherished their home and family. They had concerns for their safety due to hunting in the area. I was glad to offer them energy healing to support their physical health and emotional well-being.

On the same visit I was able to offer healing for some elk and antelope as well. If you’d like to read more about the details of this visit including what the bison shared specifically with me about their lives and the issue of overpopulation with bison in the Flagstaff and Grand Canyon area, go to my individual blog post here.

In March, I took a trip to visit an alpaca farm near Prescott Valley, AZ. This ranch is a home for many alpacas as well as their human caretakers. It is also a part-time petting zoo.

Much like the bison, I found the alpacas were content at their home and in their larger herd. There was one large paddock that opened up into pasture which was great for the younger alpacas to roam freely, run and play.

When I asked them how they were doing, the group majority said they were happy and at ease. Some of the females were a little bored in the smaller paddock and would have liked some toys or games to play, as well as an option to roam more freely in a open pasture like the younger ones had.

For the most part, they didn’t mind visiting with human strangers as part of the petting zoo since it didn’t happen very often. Some of them looked forward to the treats, but most of them preferred their own alpaca company or the company of the human caretakers. I’ll share more about my thoughts on petting zoos near the end of this post.

I passed this info. from the alpacas on to one of caretakers and did some energywork for an alpaca who had a small, partially healed foot abscess. I also did a group healing for the overall emotional and spiritual well-being of the herd.

In April I had the pleasure of being able to visit a local pig sanctuary, Snouts of Sedona, in the Village of Oak Creek. What a wonderful place for rescued pigs to live! These happy pigs were completely at home here, spending time indoors and outdoors with plenty of space to move around, rest and play.

I had the chance to work with some pigs individually who had really tough backgrounds. A few were guarded and defensive with humans because of inappropriate handling, emotional issues and/or chaos in their previous homes. Many of them had rejection and abandonment issues which isn’t surprising considering the circumstances.

I was able to work individually with the pigs who had emotional and behavioral issues. As a group I offered energywork, toning and light language to all for supporting them on a body, mind and spirit level. I went to this rescue with two friends, one who played the crystal bowls and the other who held a grounded, safe space. Between the three of us, we were able to offer a profound healing.

I have since heard from the owner, Colleen Hinds, who has told me, “all of the pigs are thriving.” She also told me that in particular, “Betty has shown improvement since the healing and gets better and better every day.” This is a pig that has shown defensive behavior patterns. I was so happy to hear this, but so sad to know that the rescue has since moved to southern Arizona. They all felt like family to me!

In May I visited a farm with many different rescued animals just outside of Flagstaff, AZ. I worked with some rescued deer, elk and alpacas. The alpacas were grieving the loss of a close friend, another alpaca who lived with them. One elk I worked with had been injured out in the wild. I was told by a worker there that he was attacked by another animal and had a disfigured ear. The mule deer I worked with had been abandoned by their mother in the wild and were ultimately rescued because there was a wildfire in the area.

All of these animals received energy healing from me to help release the trauma and support their physical health, emotional well-being and boost their divine connection. Just like us, animals need their spiritual connection so they can thrive as well.

Some animals living on farms, rescues or in petting zoos who are deprived of extra freedom and autonomy in their lifestyle as well as loving care from their caretakers get cut off from their divine connection. Specifically with petting zoos and places with really small paddocks or tight living spaces, because they don’t have the liberation of full desired movement and how their day flows, animals can get bored, depressed or even become dissociated from their bodies.

Animals who are often fed as motivation to be friendly with human strangers who visit a petting zoo can also develop behavioral and emotional issues when they come to expect that from every human. In many cases, they don’t learn to bond with humans through mutual curiosity or connection, it becomes all about the food. Also, in a lot of cases I think they are overfed!

So even though I didn’t work individually with the animals who were part of the petting zoo at the alpaca farm, I did a group healing for all of the animals there to improve their spiritual health, as well as their physical, mental and emotional well-being.

And as I’ve shared above, in many of these places I have visited this year I have done group healing to support all of the animals’ physical health, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. The beauty of this work is that each individual in the group can receive however much of the healing their soul desires.

Like us, they can take in the healing and integrate it in their own timing. So there is the opportunity for them to boost physical health, release trauma and improve their emotional health, behaviors and spiritual connection.

Sometimes just one visit can bring huge changes and/or complete healing. Other times, two or three visits are needed to see more improvement or complete healing. I will often recommend other healing resources or modalities and lifestyle or caretaking adjustments to promote the best outcomes as well.

There is another animal rescue with a variety of horses, cows, goats and birds that  I’ll be working with during this month of June. They are located in Cornville, AZ but I will be doing the healing work remotely because they aren’t currently allowing anyone on site due to changes around the ranch. I will keep you posted on what I did with these animals soon!

If you’d like to read more about how I started this Farm Animal & Wildlife Project, check out my original blog post here.

I have been donating my time and gifts to The Farm Animal & Wildlife Project since 2024 in addition to the business that I’ve been doing for 17 years: Intuitive guidance and energy healing for people and pets, which I will continue as always.

But it’s now time to start expanding in the Farm Animal & Wildlife Project. So I am asking for donations to help get me well on my way. Please donate through my Go Fund me fundraiser that you’ll be viewing if you are reading this.

If you’d like to help in other ways you can also comment on this post so it gets more exposure online, share the post with a friend, or refer me to farms or rescues where the animals might need my help. I will also be needing some help with getting more of my work on social media for anyone who is efficient and tech-savvy.

In the meantime, enjoy some photos of the animals I’ve discussed in this post below! Thank you so much for reading about and supporting my work.

Love, Heather
