☆ I moved to Ecuador because the US was too expensive. I'd love to move back to Montana and be near my grandkids but I can't afford it.

Lonita Jensen, a retired nurse, said she moved to Ecuador because of high prices in the US. Jensen said her apartment in Ecuador would cost three times as much in her home state of Montana.

☆ Hunting alligators is actually good for the environment and for people

Mississippi hunters just broke the state record for the largest alligator ever caught. These hunting programs help control alligator populations and fund state wildlife agencies. This has drawn attention to the state's alligator hunting program, which may provide more benefits for the reptiles than you might think. Because of this system, state officials were able to track the 776 alligators that were harvested in Mississippi in 2021. It's best for both the alligators and humans to keep their populations separate, at least from a public relations standpoint, Watkins said.

☆ Bison calf euthanized after a Yellowstone visitor lifted it out of a river, causing the herd to reject it

Park rangers were forced to euthanize the animal after its herd rejected it, officials said. Visitors later reported seeing the calf follow cars and other people, the park service said. "Park rangers tried repeatedly to reunite the calf with the herd. The statement added that the newborn calf was not a good candidate for quarantine, as it would not have been able to care for itself. Human interference with wild animals can "drastically affect their well-being," the park service said, reiterating the importance of giving them space.
☆ Major glaciers in Kilimanjaro and Yosemite will disappear by 2050, UN says
  + stars: | 2022-11-03 | by ( Emma Newburger | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Major glaciers across the world, including those in the Dolomites in Italy, Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and Yosemite and Yellowstone parks in the U.S., will be gone by 2050 even if global greenhouse gas emissions are reduced, the U.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization said in a report on Thursday. Even if global temperature rise is limited to 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit), an increasingly unlikely scenario, at least one-third of the roughly 18,000 glaciers across the 50 World Heritage sites will disappear by mid-century. Only a rapid reduction in our CO2 emissions levels can save glaciers and the exceptional biodiversity that depends on them," UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay said in a statement. The other glaciers can be saved only if emissions are reduced dramatically and global temperatures do not exceed 1.5 degrees Celsius of warming, UNESCO warned in its report. Half of humanity depends directly or indirectly on glaciers as a water source for domestic use, agriculture and power, according to the report.
☆ Major glaciers, including Dolomites and Yosemite, to disappear by 2050 - UN report
  + stars: | 2022-11-02 | by ( Avi Asher-Schapiro | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
REUTERS/Denis Balibouse/PARIS, Nov 3 (Reuters) - Some of the world's most famous glaciers, including in the Dolomites in Italy, the Yosemite and Yellowstone parks in the United States and Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania will disappear by 2050 due to global warming, whatever the temperature rise scenario, according to a UNESCO report. The United Nations cultural agency UNESCO monitors some 18,600 glaciers across 50 of its World Heritage sites and said that a third of those are set to disappear by 2050. While the rest can be saved by keeping global temperature rise below 1.5 degree Celsius (2.7 Fahrenheit) relative to pre-industrial levels, in a business-as-usual emissions scenario, about 50% of these World Heritage glaciers could almost entirely disappear by 2100. World Heritage glaciers as defined by UNESCO represent about 10 percent of the world's glacier areas and include some of the world's best-known glaciers, whose loss is highly visible as they are focal points for global tourism. Carvalho said that the single most important protective measure to prevent major glacier retreat worldwide would be to drastically reduce carbon emissions.
