    The Mountain That Moves: The Frank Slide Disaster

    In April of 1903, Turtle Mountain fell. Long known by indigenous nations to be dangerous, the town of Frank built at its base and mined into its sides nonetheless. In the early morning hours of April 29th, 100 million tons of rock broke free and hurdled down the mountain, killing 70 people and burying much of the town in nearly 100 feet of debris. It was over in less than 90 seconds, but has remained Canada’s deadliest rockslide.

    Saved by a Hunter, Betrayed by Science: The Florida Everglades Panther Story.

    By the 1970s, the Florida panther was nearly extinct, with fewer than 30 left in the wild. As scientists raced to save the species, one of the most influential biologists in the field dismissed critical evidence and nearly pushed the panther closer to extinction, while an unlikely figure stepped in to change everything: a hunter. What followed was one of the strangest and most controversial conservation efforts in U.S. history, one that shouldn’t have worked… but did.
