They're shaped like a potato and tend to bake in hot weather, biologists say. That's why you will find cheeky little pikas in Colorado's mountains. But climate change could cause these critters' numbers to dwindle, according to wildlife experts. Like polar bears, Pikas may predict warmer temperatures, scientists say.

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.

Aurora, CO

Aurora, Colo. -- Angry Aurorans on social media poked fun at the local news media Friday as more information came out about Venezuelan gangs on the Front Range. Mike Coffman, Aurora mayor, posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It contradicted comments made by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, who told the New York Post the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.

Migrant gang crisis underrated? Denver media criticized

The Venezuelans living in Aurora apartment buildings facing condemnation were not put there by the city of Denver. Denver city spokesman Jon Ewing said none of the residents are part of the Denver Asylum Seekers Program, or DASP. Amidst a flurry of media reports, some not substantiated, some have claimed the City and County of Denver placed the migrants in the Aurora buildings.

Since my first interactions with the Wyoming Legislature in 2022, I’ve watched it transform into something I barely recognize — a political circus far removed from the everyday lives of Wyomingites like me. Instead of addressing the issues that matter to our state, many of our elected officials seem more interested in national political narratives, driven by social media and the allure of sound bites over substance. This obsession with outside issues has turned Wyoming politics into a performance, where fear-mongering is used as campaign fodder, distracting from the real work we need to do for our state.
