  • Freed Wolves Move Into Their Old Niche

    CLINT MCKNIGHT, Writers on the Range|Mar 13, 2024

    What was it like for ten captured Oregon wolves when Colorado Parks and Wildlife opened their crates on a December day last year? The wolves had been chased by helicopter, drugged, blindfolded, and collared, then moved to remote public land in central Colorado. One of those animals might have had this experience. The grey wolf in the metal crate tenses as the door unexpectedly opens. Through the bright threshold, he sees a field of winter grasses laced with snow and a line of juniper trees....

  • CONNECTING POINT: Rx For Life

    BILL LANES|Mar 13, 2024

    In recent months, I’ve gotten to know more about Luke, the physician who wrote about the life and ministry of Jesus. For most of my life, I’ve assumed that Luke was one of the original twelve disciples of Jesus, but I was wrong. Luke was a close friend to Paul and accompanied him on several trips as they spread the message of Jesus across the region. Many scholars believe Luke is the author of Acts, and as a physician, one can understand why the healing power of Jesus caught his interest. You may be familiar with Matthew’s writing, and the ...
