Monarch butterfly migration in St. Louis sparks urgent conservation efforts

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:28:00 GMT

CHESTERFIELD, Mo. -- Monarch butterflies, a species on the endangered list, are currently migrating across the St. Louis metro area on their way to Central Mexico. Habitat destruction due to extreme weather and human interference poses a significant threat to their survival. Climate change and habitat loss have led to a decline in their numbers, prompting concerns about their future.Tad Yankoski, a senior entomologist at the Sophia M. Sachs Butterfly House, emphasizes the urgency of preserving monarch habitats. Monarchs travel a vast distance, from the United States to Central Mexico, where they hibernate during the winter. Not every monarch makes this journey, as migration happens only every third or fourth generation, yet preserving their habitat is crucial. Police chase ends in Dupo, Illinois area, officers investigating Efforts to protect monarch habitats benefit not only these butterflies but also numerous other plant and animal species facing similar challenges.The Missouri ...

From Hail Marys to homecomings, these are full-circle days for Broncos WR Brandon Johnson: “It’s a surreal feeling”

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:28:00 GMT

Brandon Johnson used to love to run the bases,He wasn’t wild about baseball, mind you, but this wasn’t Little League or t-ball at the local park.This was his childhood.As the son of a big leaguer, some of Johnson’s earliest memories are the countless summer days spent around ballparks. The options, though they probably seem limitless to a youngster, really aren’t all that extensive.You can bother Preston Wilson or Todd Helton. You spend games either with mom or at the club’s childcare services. You run the bases.“I got to spend a lot of time in the clubhouse and that was really cool,” Johnson, the second-year Broncos wide receiver, told The Denver Post recently. “It was definitely fun to be around, but it was also cool to see how the guys that you watch on TV, they’re just normal guys. Really cool, different personalities, that’s what I remember the most.”That takeaway feels particularly on the nose as Johnson ventures down memory lane. After all, he’s doing so 20 years ...

Douglas County OKs property tax relief; state review required

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:28:00 GMT

Douglas County leaders have approved a plan to reduce property values by about $4 billion in a push to help residents hammered by soaring taxes but the plan still requires state review.The county commissioners voted unanimously this week to implement the adjustment in 2023 home value assessments — the first effort by a metro Denver county to address Colorado’s anticipated property tax surge.The new valuations will save residents of Douglas County an average of $223 on their January tax bills, officials said, but also mean $28 million less in funds for the county government.Commissioner Abe Laydon linked the decision to county opposition to Proposition HH.  That statewide measure, which goes to voters this fall, would allow property owners to deduct $50,000 from their property’s value while increasing how much the state can keep under the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights.“We listen to our citizens, and in this economy, where every dollar is stretched, any relief is going to be signifi...

Opinion: Colorado’s big cats are not trophies and they shouldn’t be for sale

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:28:00 GMT

This week, a diverse statewide coalition — Cats Aren’t Trophies (CATs) — initiated a Colorado ballot measure to end trophy hunting mountain lions, along with fur trapping bobcats. As members of CATs, we aim to introduce the campaign and explain why all Coloradans should support us to qualify this measure for the fall 2024 ballot.Prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney’s Office say this photo shows Patrick Montgomery holding the mountain lion he killed on March 31. Montgomery had been released pending charges for his involvement in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol but because the hunt violated the terms of his release, he was placed on 24/7 house arrest. (Photo provided by the U.S. Attorney’s Office.)Come November, mountain lion trophy hunting will be afoot in Colorado. Like each year before, trophy hunts will claim as many as 500 lions, with most of the animals shot from trees after being relentlessly chased by packs of dogs fitted with sophisticated radio telemetry equipm...

Miami’s offense faced a first-and-10 from its 23-yard line when star wide receiver Tyreek Hill squatted at the line of scrimmage. Just before the ball was snapped, Hill motioned out before cutting across the middle to make a 29-yard reception.Through two weeks, the Dolphins have lined Hill up in unorthodox spots in their offensive formations. The 7-time Pro Bowler was already a threat with his cheetah-like speed. But this will make it even harder for the Broncos to defend him on Sunday afternoon.“It puts a lot more on our plate than (Hill) just lining up (on the...
