These modern-day hippies sometimes gather in groups of thousands. In fact, this year’s gathering might have reached up to 10,000, according to the New York Post.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

Never a dull moment in Yellowstone National Park.

Or Yellowstone the show, but that's another story...

Spanning across Wyoming, Montana and into Idaho, Yellowstone National Park is home to some of the most incredible wildlife you'll find anywhere in the United States. We're talking bears, wolves, elk, deer, bison, pronghorn, as well as a ton of fish, birds, and reptiles.

Established in 1872, it's the first national park in the United States and widely accepted as the first national park in the world. Some will argue however that Bogd Khan Uul National Park in Mongolia is the oldest. Oldest or not, if it's not on...

Pete McBride was in a bad way.

Swallowing hard and unable to speak, he was fading in the 112°F heat of the Grand Canyon and his walking partner Kevin Fedarko was worried.

But when McBride removed his shirt, Fedarko was taken aback, as he writes in “A Walk in the Park: The True Story of a Spectacular Misadventure in the Grand Canyon” (Scribner). 



A lump, the size of a desert woodrat, was protruding from his chest and moving across his abdomen and back to his shoulders. 

“For several long seconds I found myself wondering exactly how an actual rat — a live rodent...

(MA) Meet Winks, an adorable and incredibly strong puppy with a heartbreaking origin. Winks was found unmoving on the side of a road with severe injuries. He had several very infected wounds and was barely holding on when his rescuers rushed him to the vet. Once there, x-rays revealed the horrifying truth that Winks had been shot numerous times around his face and neck. These injuries resulted in him having his eye removed. Despite that, Winks has made a miraculous and full recovery. He certainly does not let his handicap slow him down at his new foster home. Winks was truly given a second chance at life, and now all he needs is a family to call his own.
