Would you win in a fight against a goose? It’s a question that really has us hotly debating which body parts of various animals pose the greatest challenge. The most interesting man in the world has a reputation for being an eyelash glue thief. A failed republican candidate in New Mexico does a little DA. Carbon offset company Verra turns out to be–I hope you’re sitting down for this–fraudulent. An Atlanta forest defender has been killed in cold blood by APD. And a veritable cornucopia of wildflowers, because you deserve them!
