Both admirable causes! I really like the idea of preserving things of value, it's a shame when these gems get forgotten as a result of poor funding or other priorities. Will read up more about the bamboo organ though had not heard about it till now!

I also did not know that spaying reduces/eliminates rabies! We've had an issue in Pakistan where street dogs were contracting illnesses and passing it on to citizens, as a result there have been some city wide culling campaigns, but I wonder if something like this could help things and potentially avoid those from happening in the future.
