This year’s area of low oxygen in the Gulf of Mexico is larger than average, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced on Thursday. The “dead zone” is approximately 6,705 square miles , as measured last week. Within NOAA’s 38 years of measuring the dead zone, this year’s assessment marks the 12th-largest area of low to no oxygen, which can kill fish and marine life.

When I learned the brown tarantula is also native to Missouri, I gasped, and when I say I'm not too fond of spiders of any genus is an understatement. It's psychological. They have too many legs.

The nation’s biggest stage isn’t on Broadway or anywhere in the borough of Manhattan. The extravagant glitz of the Las Vegas Sphere or the billion-dollar football palace in Arlington, Texas, don’t come close, either. America’s largest and most hallowed coliseums tower over college towns like Ann Arbor, Michigan; State College, Pennsylvania; and College Station, Texas. Games between students with homework and textbooks are elevated into grand sporting spectacles watched by millions coast to coast. Filling these bleachers are denizens of one of the most passionate fandoms there is: college football. They come clad in school colors, as young as infants, brought by their parents, who were brought to their first games by their parents before them. But the 2024 season is not your dad’s college football. In fact, no one has ever seen anything like this.

OU and Texas are in the SEC. OSU is in the Big 12 conference—with Utah. This college football season, the Sooners and Cowboys wave hello to new opponents, and goodbye (for now?) to each other.

WHITE MOUNTAIN—“That’s a lot of horses,” lamented Cheyenne resident Robyn Smith from a high-desert ridgeline. It wasn’t her first exasperated exclamation. “Argh, oh crap,” was her immediate reaction to learning a federal judge had given the Bureau of Land Management the OK to proceed with plans to fully remove two wild horse herds from the landscape in southwest Wyoming.

Don Hall is an avid snowmobiler, but instead of heading for the hills each winter in search of deep powder, he takes an older snowmachine to lower elevations nearer the snow line. There’s a reason the Riverton resident prefers the lower zones despite the rocks, fences and sage most riders avoid: That’s where the coyotes are.

Wyoming allows snowmobilers to run down wildlife. Despite global outrage, it may stay legal.
