A male prehensile-tailed porcupine stands on rocks and a stream inside a zoo habitat.

Introducing Ozzy! This prehensile-tailed porcupine, Zoo Boise's newest resident, is already becoming a star. 🌠

Settling into the renovated Small Animal Kingdom's Rainforest Building, Ozzy likes to nimbly climb and flip around his habitat’s canopy.

My congratulations to all Baseball Perverts. It was their "super bowl" last night and it seems they all had a very bad time (in their culture that's how you have a good time)

And in that pause between pitch and contact - longer than logic, shorter than hope - we remembered why baseball existed long before we judged a sport's value by viral moments and betting apps. It is the romance of failure. The mortal beauty of trying and missing seven times out of 10 and still being considered great. It is the only sport where patience is a weapon, and panic the surest death. You cannot simply run out the clock in baseball; you must face it, pitch by terrifying pitch, until it finally releases you.

Did not expect one of the best paragraphs I’d read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper

Rick Moranis and the cast of the movie crowded around a giant roasted turkey.  This thing is a prop, looks somewhat realistic, very torn and β€œmoist” but maybe 10 times the size of a normal Turkey and is disturbing.

Despite their massive size, American bison can sprint up to 35 miles per hour. This is thanks to their powerful muscle groups and specialized limb anatomy evolved for short bursts of speed.

Halloween is all about tricks and treats for humans, but for many of our pets it’s a different story. It’s important to make sure that our furry friends are safe and happy on this spooky holiday. Check out our website for advice: www.mspca.org/angell_servi...

Star Trek Deep Space Nine scene. We're on the Defiant I think, or maybe a runabout shuttle, the lights are dim. We see Jadzea Dax in Starfleet uniform, a humanoid alien who has lil tattoo looking marks up around her neck and through the forehead. Here she's making a scary angry face at the camera. Closed caption reads, "Boo!"

4 Screenshots from the movie "Halloween III: Season of the Witch" (1982): First, an aerial view of a small town at dusk with the subtitle "SUNDAY the 31st" overlaying the scene. Second, two children in Halloween costumes sit on the floor in a cozy living room, watching a TV emitting a green glow. Third, a man in a light jacket appears tense as he crouches beside a control panel with blinking lights in a dark room. Fourth, a large industrial space with a glowing blue circle on the floor and a stone structure on a platform, surrounded by equipment and workers.

New England’s bleak historical background also sets it apart from other regions. The Gothic genre, professor Bridget Marshall states, β€œis always interested in history, and New England has a deep and layered one.”

It depicts three black cats are shown flying through the air, their fur bristling and tails arched as if caught mid-leap or magically soaring. Each cat is accompanied by or carrying a glowing Jack-o’-lantern, the carved pumpkins casting a warm, orange light that contrasts with the dark background.
