US Bird Species at Risk
According to a recent report by the National Audubon Society as well as the American Bird Conservancy, 25% of all bird species in the United States are at risk of extinction.

Main reasons for these alarming numbers are – how could it be different - human activity causing habitat loss and global warming. The introduction of alien mammals and plants also causes the number of many bird species to decline.

If you like to dig deeper and find out which kind of birds are on the endangered species list, visit the web site of the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Here's the direct link to the page where you find lots of additional information.

Bear Attacks
Below are the stories of two recent bear attacks. In the first story, a mountain biker surprised a black bear mom with two cubs. The bear obviously felt threatened, feared about its cubs and attacked and injured the bicyclist, who manages to escape and ride his bike out of the forest to safety. Wildlife officials said they will kill the bear, if they can get hold of the animal.

Second story, different location, different black bear. The bear sneaked into a backyard, obviously lured by the neighbors improperly disposed compost, looking for some 'fast food'. It spotted a 4 year old child, tried to grab it but a fearless grandmother in 'defense mode' managed to pluck the kid from between the bears paws and started aggressively screaming at the animal. The black bear decided to let go and wandered off in the woods.

Read the original stories below.
