Similar Stories to Wolf-killing Campaigns In Idaho And Montana May Just Have Backfired on Bing News

This story was originally published by Huffpost and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. New laws liberalizing the hunting and trapping of gray wolves in the Northern Rockies might warrant putting the animals back under the protection of the Endangered Species Act, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said this past Wednesday. Backed by the ranching industry, which views wolves as a growing liability in states with extensive cattle and sheep grazing, both Idaho and Montana enacted laws earlier this year making it easier to hunt and trap wolves, legalizing tactics previously reserved for far more numerous animals, such as wild pigs, raccoons and coyotes. But that strategy now looks like it might backfire.

  • C&L's Late Nite Music Club: Gary Moore
    Crooks and Liars, Saturday - 05/04/2024 - 11:00 PM

    Gary Moore is one of the least talked about guitarists of his time, but man could he rock. Still Got the Blues For You is in my mind his signature track. Music Radar conducted an excellent interview with Moore and he discussed his music and guitar playing in general. Moore also has some advice for the prolix guitar player, and we have surely all been one, coming down with acute case of fretboard diarrhoea and using too many notes in our solos. Take a phrase, says Moore, and work on it, playing around with all the different permutations, accenting the first, second, or maybe the last notes, working on the dynamics – these are all ways of workshopping your phrasing and learning how to make more out of something simple and familiar.
