Don't make any of these mistakes the next time you go shopping for a watermelon at the store or market. It is watermelon season in many parts of the country. That means you should have access to locally grown watermelon. But don't assume that. Always make sure to check the sticker on the watermelon. Where are the watermelons coming from? This time of year you shouldn't be buying a watermelon that was picked in Mexico, when local options are available.

Yellowstone’s oldest wolf pack, Mollie’s Pack, leaves the park, raising fears for its future

Leslie Patten hiked into a remote reach of northwest Wyoming’s Sunlight Basin in December to post a trail camera where she’d earlier seen wolf tracks. At the time, a winter closure was fast approaching, and the Park County resident wouldn’t be able to retrieve the camera and review the footage for months. When she hiked back to fetch her equipment on May 1, the citizen scientist and author was greeted by one of nature’s most primal noises: the howls of wolves.

America Has No President

Teddy Roosevelt. Harry Truman. Dwight Eisenhower. They were not always popular. They certainly never wielded “unitary executive” authority. But they all tried to lead our big, complicated nation and faithfully execute the laws passed by Congress.
