39 years ago, 8 captive-born Red Wolves were released into Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge in North Carolina, bringing the species back to the wild after decades of absence. This #RedWolfWeek, we’re celebrating that history while looking toward the future. Join the movement: bit.ly/46ktTCX

anyway, the American id understander himself, Hunter S. Thompson, the next week for goddamn ESPN of all places. the party's over, folks.
We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time."

Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history -- which is no doubt true -- but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a war-time economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed.

That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks. The time has come for loyal Americans to Sacrifice. ... Sacrifice. ... Sacrifice. That is the new buzz-word in Washington. But what it means is not entirely clear.

The idea that classrooms are chiefly spaces for product testing, and that it is irresponsible pedagogy not to enforce this, is both cynical and vile, and “fuck off” is a cogent response from any professional educator to any non-teaching salescreep or tech-but-not-subject-matter expert who voices it.

BREAKING: President Trump signed an Executive Order today requiring Sec. of the Interior Burgum to explore removing federal protections for gray wolves + Mexican gray wolves. It's clearly meant to appease ranchers, despite the biggest threat to their businesses coming from tariffs, not wolves.

NZ needs a properly funded natural history museum. We may not have the popn base but our biodiversity (past & present) is unique. It would also be an ideal opportunity to develop globally focused exhibitions on evolution of life thru the fossil record, human evolution, and touring exhibitions.

During this discussion panel at University of New England, the Colossal supporters lied by saying “ghost wolf” was an indigenous term. As if it wasn’t coined less than a decade ago and not supported by the primary conservation groups working on red wolves: echo360.net.au/media/8ccd63...

These dudes did an Indigenous naming ceremony for one of the cloned coyotes from Louisiana calling it "Neka Kayda", hid it with those GOT wolves, and then called her "Hope" in the initial press releases. In the meantime, those GOT wolves get birthday cake and pumpkins and the clones get no love.
