House Votes To Strip Wolves Of ESA Protections; Will Senate Follow?

Lame duck congressional sessions are pretty much a crapshoot, as the politicians rush to wrap up business and try to force through legislation that might otherwise not fly. So while there was much concern when the U.S. House of Representatives voted to remove Endangered Species Act protections from gray wolves, it's not a sure thing that the Senate will go along.

Judge Puts Greater Yellowstone Grizzlies Back On Endangered Species List

Grizzly bears that roam the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem have regained protection from hunters under the Endangered Species Act due to a judge's ruling that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service did not adequately consider how delisting the bears would impact the species as a whole.

Fall Spectacular: Fall Colors From a National Park Lodge

A disadvantage of living in South Georgia is the scarcity of fall colors as the days grow cooler and the nights become longer. The glorious reds, bright yellows, and vivid oranges produced by oaks, maples, cottonwoods, sumac, and other broadleaved trees and shrubs are in short supply where we live. Having both grown up in the Midwest, we miss the changing of the colors during the fall seasons.
