Nepal Police personnel stand alongside their service dogs to worship them on the day of Kukur (Dog) Tihar in Kathmandu, Nepal, on October 20, 2025. In the Central Dog Training School in Kathmandu, the dogs receive garlands and a medal for their special contribution to security and helping in solving cases. The dogs, regarded as guardians and messengers of Yama, are offered garlands, bread, and are worshipped with vermilion powder and flowers. In the Rigveda, one of the Vedas in Hindu religion, Samara, the mother of dogs, assists Indra, the ruler of heaven, in retrieving stolen cattle. On the second day of Yama Panchak or Tihar, Nepal honors the role played by dogs by worshipping pet and stray dogs early in the morning for the devotion and sincerity they have shown. The canine, known for its trust as a sentry and as a faithful companion of humans since ancient times, is worshipped annually in Nepal.

A guard tower with razor wire stands at Nowa Huta Prison in Krakow, Poland, on August 27, 2025. Thanks to a partnership between Krakow's Municipal Greenery Authority and the Krakow Remand Prison, inmates cultivate vegetable gardens on prison grounds as part of an urban gardening program. The garden runs for three years in the women's ward, and since last year also in the men's ward, where since 2025 vegetables grow alongside flowers. In addition to gardening, inmates also take part in other projects such as building hedgehog houses and insect hotels. The initiative is designed to teach responsibility and care, while also providing meaningful ways to spend time. Participation is voluntary, and all harvests belong to those who work in the gardens.
