The animal, also known as a puma or a cougar, is the region's apex predator, and spotting them is something of a hobby for locals. A 2013 photograph of the much loved -- but unimaginatively named -- P-22 in front of the Hollywood sign cemented the creature's place in the popular imagination. But the picture also highlighted the difficulties faced by a species whose habitat...

The effective altruism (E.A.) movement, which began with the premise that philanthropists should do the most good per dollar spent, injected pragmatism into an arena where good intentions can trump rational, effective number crunching. A generation of effective altruists—many schooled in Silicon Valley thought—have since embraced this metric-driven, impartial philosophy and translated their own good intentions into good works. However, artificial intelligence (AI) exposes a flaw in the movement: a powerful faction of doomsayers. The result is not just misplaced philanthropy but lobbying to cre...

The US Fish and Wildlife Service strategy released on Wednesday is meant to prop up declining spotted owl populations in Oregon, Washington state and California. Documents released by the agency show up to about 450,000 barred owls would be shot over three decades after the birds from the eastern US encroached into the West Coast territory ...

The U.S. Supreme Court’s watershed decision on homelessness Friday will make it easier for elected officials and law enforcement authorities nationwide to fine and arrest people who live on streets and sidewalks, in broken-down vehicles, or within city parks — which could have far-reaching health consequences for homeless Americans and their communities. In a 6-to-3 ruling in City of Grants Pass v. Johnson, the justices in the majority said allowing the targeting of homeless people occupying public spaces by enforcing bans on public sleeping or camping with criminal or civil penalties is not c...
