Beastars— is an unusual but endearing anime that takes place in a world full of anthropomorphic animals, and the tensions that come with predator-prey relations. Think Zootopia, but with adult themes, coming-of-age drama, and an unexpected love story. The anime series follows Legoshi, an anxious, reserved gray wolf who develops a fascination with Haru, a tiny but fearless dwarf rabbit. Their burgeoning friendship (and romantic interest) with each other takes place amid a rise in tension at their school, after the killing of a herbivore by an unknown carnivore. Despite the strange premise, the series is filled with poignant takes on self-discovery, stereotyping, and choosing one’s own path in life.

There’s no cure for progeria, but researchers are working on finding one. One clinical trial is looking at a kind of cancer drug, FTIs (farnesyltransferase inhibitors), to see if it can help slow the disease.
See lessTreatments can help ease or delay some of the disease’s symptoms.Your child’s doctor may suggest drugs and changes to your child’s diet to lower cholesterol or prevent blood clots. A low dose of aspirin every day can help prevent heart attacks and stroke. Growth hormone can help build height and weight.
Physical and occupational therapy can help your child keep moving if they have stiff joints or hip problems.
Surgery. Some children may have coronary bypass surgery or angioplasty to slow the progression of heart disease.
At home. Kids with progeria are more likely to get dehydrated, so they need to drink plenty of water, especially when they’re sick or it’s hot. Small meals more often can help them eat enough, too. Cushioned shoes or inserts can ease discomfort and encourage your child to play and stay active.
Sunscreen. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. Reapply it every 2 hours, or more if your child is sweating or swimming.
