Hunters start to hunt Yellowstone Grizzly Bears since they've been recovered
For half a century grizzly bears have been on the endangered list, but thankfully they have been recovered. But a new concern is coming, since grizzlies are off the endangered list 3 Western states are allowed to hold strict hunting seasons for the bear.
Arguments over if grizzles can even survive a hunting,and if grizzles should be hunted for sports started to pop up, though some people claim if hunting is limited and maintained correctly hunting would not affect the population too much.
The low estimate of how many Yellowstone bears are in the Greater Yellowstone area is 700 but it is more likely that there are 1,000.
Overall the recovery and potential hunting of the Yellowstone Grizzly Bear was a controversial subject.

Article 5
France bans smartphones in schools
In France lawmakers passed a law on Monday that prevents students from using phones at school. Agence France-Presse writes once the law starts in September students will have to leave their phones at home or turn them completely off during school.
Lawmakers hope to overcome the children's phone addiction and help kids get more focused. Unless phones are being used for academical purposes, or used because someone has a disability phones are not allowed.
France has banned phones in the past from being in cars even if they weren't driving. France was (obviously) trying to limit the number of car accidents and stop people from causing traffic because they were looking at their phones.
So in general France has passed another law against phones. Banning them from being used in cars, and now recently in schools.

Scientists takes a large portion of a boy's brain, his brain still works normally.
A boy with severe epilepsy had a large portion of his brain taken out in a desperate attempt to cure his epilepsy. He had removed out his occipital lobe, which carries out visual and auditory processing. After the surgery his brain still functioned normally and beside from the fact his is blind to the left side of the world he id doing better than ever.
Because of the removal of the occipital lobe he can't the information on left side of the world, he can't feel, he see, or hear from the left side.
Fortunately he was able to learn to recognize things and faces from the left side. Scientists believe that these skills were able to come so quickly because they were still developing before the surgery, therefore people already developed may not be able to get over this change soo quickly.
In the end the boy is healthy and he hopes to be a neurosurgeon in the future

The first snake ever found in amber is a baby from the dinosaur age
Scientists who have analyzed the amber have realized that the snake (which is 10 cm long) was from 100 million years ago, and that the snake was from an island in the Indian Ocean. When the snake got trapped in the sap, the sap hardened as the island drifted north and became a part of Myanmar.
U only 4 cm of the snake survived, so the skull is missing. But the scientist also found a second second piece of amber which also has a piece of skin probably shed by the same species of snake.
Finding a snake fossil is extremely lucky since snake fossils of any kind are really rare. Around the world there are only about 15 fossils found from this period. Also no snakes have ever been found in amber.
So in all there was a rare snake fossil found.

A Supermoon will Eclipse the Sun on Friday the 13
Sky-watchers around South Pacific can see this phenomenon that hasn't happen in 44 years.
They will be able to see a partial solar eclipse that will be seen from the southeastern coast of: Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand’s Stewart Island, and the northern coast of Antarctica.
The amount of the sun hidden by the moon will depend on each watcher's location. In Australia, you will be able to see less than half. While watchers in Tasmania, will be able to see 3.5% of the sun blocked out.
Any researchers that happens to be at the Casey or Dumont d'Urville research stations in Antarctica will get the view, since about 21% of the sun is covered during the deepest part of the eclipse.
To in conclusion there will be a exiting supermoon solar eclpise in July 13.

Animal Migration
All migrations have 5 special characteristics; it is prolong movement, that carry the animal out of their usual habitat; usually being in a straight line but can also be different: before migrating the animal has to prepare in some way; distributes energy unusually.
Migrations happen when the seasons change and the animal needs to go to a different, more warmer location.
When migrating the animals focus should be solely on migration. Food, rest, and mating are for later until they finish migrating.
Each migration will be different for each species.
In all migrating is a complex system that is vital to the animals that that migrates life.
