The charity claims long-term separation was not a viable solution, as wolves' welfare is closely tied to living within a stable pack structure, and isolation can create further welfare concerns.

Tell your peeps to watch for sheep! Share the range with the Tetons' original mountaineers. Bighorn sheep have worked hard to survive the winter at high elevation. By late winter, their fat reserves are running thin and every bit of energy counts. Giving them space will help them make it through the final weeks of winter.

A hotel on the edge of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area in Ely, Minn., teaches guests how to harness, mush, and manage teams of three to six dogs during their stay.

An unnamed tourist saw it and told Aidan Moore, who works for Alcatraz City Cruises. Moore told SFGATE that he was initially skeptical, but the guest's iPhone footage left little room for doubt. The video shows, not a sea lion or an otter, but an actual Canis latrans, doggedly dogpaddling, then clambering out of the water, noticeably shaky and struggling to settle tired paws on the craggy rocks.

Just 10 miles south of Yellowstone, this incredible national park is home to beautiful sights, breathtaking nature, and some great hotels and vacation rentals to boot. As a local, I've visited Grand Teton National Park countless times, and I've spent just as many nights camping in a tent in the park as I have in one of the wonderful accommodations nearby.

A member of the public reported the discovery of an antlered white-tailed deer's body to police on Jan. 1 in Park Lawn Cemetery. Officers located a dead deer with an arrow coming out of its body, said Toronto police in an emailed statement, adding there is no suspect description at this time.

Welcome back to Atlantic Trivia! Are you hungry for more? I hope that while I've been away, you have been enjoying plenty of food for thought-literally. Research shows that berries help improve memory and that a walnut-heavy diet is associated with higher cognitive performance. Fatty fish and leafy greens are linked to slower cognitive decline. Caffeine is a brain boost too.

A nostalgic comfort food, the humble meatloaf has long been a dinnertime staple. But for those who prefer sticking to a classic meatloaf recipe, it's time to expand your horizons to the possibilities of new tastes and textures. Try a twist on the typical meat in your meatloaf by swapping in venison for your next batch. Venison, also known as deer meat, is a uniquely flavored wild game that would make an ideal meat swap for the base of a meatloaf.

The next morning, I checked the critter-cams and saw the bear again, now captured by a camera I'd placed by a little mesh-covered opening near the small basement under my house. I watched as a massive shape emerged from the hole. My brain refused to believe it. The bear looked too large to fit in that tiny gap. I watched it again, shocked. My hands started to sweat.

I was five years old when I had my first encounter with a black bear. In the spring of 1990, my father, a wildlife biologist, brought home an orphaned three-month-old cub in a cardboard box. The cub's mother, having burrowed beneath the roots of an old tree, had been killed in the den by a logging excavator, but the cub, weighing barely more than a bag of apples, survived. Forestry workers caught the young bear and dropped it off at the Fish and Wildlife office in Peace River, Alberta, where my dad worked, and he called my mom with the news.
