Alaska State

Pure, unbridled power.

Some Alaskan anglers went out on the Kenai River to catch some fish, and though they probably did reel in more than a couple of catches, the biggest moment of the day came when a massive moose crashed their fishing spot.

Now to be clear, it's not uncommon to see a moose running about in Alaska. There is an estimated population of about 200,000 in our northern-most-state. However, humans rarely ever get to witness a sizable creature like this showing its upmost physical capabilities.

If you've ever tried to run into the ocean, you know how hard it can be...

A fisherman in Missouri caught what he thought was an odd fish that refused to die, even when left on the pavement for several hours. The angler was fishing below Wappapello Lake Spillway in Wayne County on May 25 when he reeled in what turned out to be a northern snakehead, the fourth ever recorded in the state, according to the Missouri Department of Conservation.

LAPORTE COUNTY, Ind. — A South Bend woman is facing serious charges after allegedly smuggling marijuana into the Indiana State Prison on Michigan City's west side. According to court documents, 38-year-old Janise Clark was apprehended on Sunday while reporting for her shift as a correctional officer. A fellow staff member noticed her plastic-wrapped sandwich looked suspicious, prompting further inspection. When the sandwich was placed in an X-Ray machine, it revealed two vacuum-sealed plastic bags containing nearly a half pound of marijuana hidden between the slices of bread.

Many people might wonder what the difference is between crocodiles and alligators, and the answer is not a whole lot when you're trying to avoid them. Alligators have darker skin than crocodiles and a more rounded nose. They are found in freshwater — lakes, streams, and rivers — unlike crocodiles, which generally survive in salt water, often near the coast. Perhaps the easiest way to spot the differences between them is by their teeth. A crocodile's bottom fourth tooth on each side always sticks out when its mouth is closed, whereas an alligator's slides into the upper jaw.
