Roadkill. It's what's for dinner.

Tourists that travel to Yellowstone National Park - some 3 million every year - aren't guaranteed to see bears when they visit the nation's oldest national park. But there's always a good chance that a bruin is lurking nearby, or in the case of this video, a couple of bruins.

This clip was taken near Yellowstone Lake, which is the largest high elevation lake in North America. It's a great place to take in the sights that Yellowstone has to offer, and it's apparently a great place for a mother grizzly and her grown bear cub to...

New York Post

A California couple is lucky to be alive after a harrowing robbery left them scrambling for their lives up a scorched Hawaii volcano — where their attacker “hunted” them with a drone and guns for nearly a day.

Justina and Alex Lucero, musicians from Santa Cruz, were visiting Maui for work in early June when they took a trip to Haleakalā National Park on a day off.

“Everybody was wonderful. All the locals and all the tourists that we ran into were great,” Alex told KHON, explaining how they were advised to visit the black sand beach near the end of the...

I have a bucket list Yellowstone trip planned this summer, sans kids. That means I can hike all I want without a chorus of complaints, so my husband and I want to take advantage of this time to journey through the most rugged and challenging miles we can. That means we need the right footwear—which begs the question, which is better, hiking boots vs. trail runners?

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.

Seagulls duck and dive around the ferry dock as a line of cars load onto the Whatcom Chief. To test my ferry karma, I purposefully didn’t consult the schedule—a risky endeavor on a warm, clear Saturday in July. A wave of gratitude rushes through me as mine is the last of just 20 cars to board the tiny ferry that will carry us across the Hale Passage to Lummi Island in just five minutes. The postcard-ready scene features deep blue-green waters glistening in the sunlight, evergreen trees standing tall and resolute in the distance, and a cloudless, cerulean sky above. As we arrive island-side, the salty, pungent scent of low-tide fills the air.

(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.
