Recent remote camera footage shows the Togo wolf pack's breeding male with his two young pups. The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) plans to shoot him, which would leave his pups vulnerable and his mate without a hunting partner.

Last week, the Center for Biological Diversity secured a temporary court order halting the culling. We are back in court this week, seeking to make that protection permanent.

Flowing through the arid Arizona-Sonora borderlands, the San Pedro River is a vital lifeline. This "damned miracle" is one of the Southwest's last undammed rivers, supporting over 80 mammal species—including jaguars and pumas—along with amphibians, imperiled yellow-billed cuckoos, 250+ migratory bird species, and unique native fish. Its incredible biodiversity demands protection.

However, the San Pedro is drying up. Unsustainable groundwater pumping by a growing population has caused base flows to decline by 67% since the 1940s, creating a significant annual water deficit. This crisis stems from unchecked population growth and a lack of effective water-conservation planning.

Earlier this year, researchers off the North Carolina coast documented a rare deep-sea event.

They captured footage of a barracuda preying on an Atlantic midshipman, a burrow-dwelling fish.

Male greater sage grouse engage in a courtship display.

They inflate and bounce their gular sacs to attract females.

Birds do it. Bees do it. Even undulating groups of Sierra newts do it.

Following nature's lead, let's do it. Let's fall in love.

Scientists recently witnessed a brief but epic octopus battle within a shipwreck's hull, nearly 6,000 feet deep in the Gulf of Mexico.

Likely vying for territory in the sunken vessel, two octopuses engaged in a tentacle tug-of-war until the intruding one retreated.

Lion's mane nudibranchs are translucent, otherworldly, and beautiful sea slugs. These predators use flexible "oral hoods" to capture prey like jellyfish, zooplankton, and small fish. When necessary, they are also capable swimmers.

Beyond their unique hunting methods, these fascinating creatures produce sweet-smelling secretions, often compared to watermelon or other fruit.

Ringtails, often mistaken for cats or lemurs, are actually related to coatis and raccoons. These adorable, nocturnal creatures are Arizona's official state mammal, even appearing on driver's licenses.

Small and undeniably cute, ringtails possess oversized eyes and ears, perfectly adapted for nighttime foraging. Their diverse diet includes fruit, lizards, insects, snakes, birds and their eggs, mice, and squirrels.
