Argos, a 10-year-old, 6-pound senior dog rescued from a Texas shelter, is now “fully vetted and ready to find his retirement home,” according to Small Dog Rescue of New England. In its introduction of Argos, the organization emphasizes both his age and temperament, calling him “a senior guy saved from the shelter in TX” and adding that “if you are looking for an easy going guy, look no further.” The nonprofit says Argos is currently in a foster home in Texas and “doing well,” and the organization is asking the public to share his adoption post to help him find a permanent home in the Northeast.

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.

Russia Has The Bomb, The Army, And An Empire In Its Head. Ukraine Is Fighting To Survive. And Half Of America Still Can't Do The Math.

Let’s compare the actual numbers. No hyped social media sentiments. Just the cold arithmetic that professional outrage merchants don’t want you doing. Ukraine has somewhere between 28 and 40 million people, depending on whether you count refugees abroad and occupied territory, the war has made an exact number impossible to pin down. Russia has about 143 million. Even using the higher Ukrainian estimate, that’s a population edge of close to four to one before a single shot is fired, a bottomless well of conscripts, mechanics, drivers, factory hands, and mothers who will bury their sons and keep sending more, because the Putin’s state machine keeps running regardless.

The U.S. Controls $13 Billion in Venezuelan Oil Money. Where Did It Go?

The Financial Times estimates that Venezuelan oil sales have generated more than $13 billion in revenue this year. The Energy Department has separately said that proceeds from those sales first settle in accounts controlled by the United States. But the White House and Energy Department records reviewed for this article, together with a State Department response reported by the Financial Times, do not provide a transaction-level reconciliation of transfers to Venezuela, authorized disbursements, expenses or remaining account balances.
