Newspaper · Media/News Company in Edmonton, Alberta, CanadaPeople often suffer from an 'illusion of knowledge,' write the authors of a new study that finds that people who hold the most extreme views about genetically modified foods know the least.

Sole surviving member of the South Selkirk caribou herd captured, Gray Ghosts are no more in Lower 48
The sole surviving member of the South Selkirk caribou herd was captured by Canadian officials Monday. The capture marks the end of the only herd that still occasionally crossed back and forth between Canada and the Lower 48 states. Mountain caribou, unlike tundra caribou, use their wide feet to walk on top of deep snowpack. That allows them to reach lichen growing high on old-growth trees. The South Selkirk herd ranged through the high country along the crest of the Selkirks near the international border. The remaining 14 or so herds are all in Canada. It’s estimated that fewer than 1,400 mountain caribou are left in North America.
