What do weddings, an escape room, and classic American literature have in common? In Missouri, also known as the Cave State, you’ll find the answer underground. Thanks to its karst-heavy landscape, Missouri is home to a vast network of more than 6,000 caves, both natural and human-made. These subterranean landmarks are natural playgrounds for geology buffs, but all visitors will be fascinated by their limestone and dolomite formations. What’s more, many of the state’s caves hold their own exciting, unexpected claims to fame.

WyoFile has acquired a photograph of a lynx in Wyoming, a landmark observation of a species currently considered absent from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Star Valley resident Jason Reinhardt, an avid houndsman , came across the animal while mountain lion hunting the southern Gros Ventre Range in February 2022.
