## Summary

NLP bot that watched Twitter/X for injured-animal posts and routed them to NGOs. 90%+ accuracy, self-hosted on a Raspberry Pi, used in 100+ real rescues.

## Detail

This combined NLP, Twitter API automation, and a Raspberry Pi to monitor animal distress posts in real time. When it found a likely rescue case, it forwarded the location and context to relevant NGOs. It ran for six months, and it is still one of my favorite projects because it was directly useful.
