It was determined the mustang mare injured herself. That's not at all uncommon with mustangs.
But the burro incident was indeed very sick and disturbing. Anyone can walk right up to a tame burro at any time, so it was real easy.
I hope the perps get caught and get a lot more than just a hand slap. This kind of cruelty is an abomination to us all.

Sorry for a third post in a row, but I figured most people would find this article interesting and eye opening. We rank higher in most categories compared to our peers on the coast.

Idaho has ranked nicely in this CNN list of the Best and Worst States to raise children and also for economic well being and family and community.

and middle of the pack for this which is subjective imo. For instance, the Boise School District has nationally ranked schools. Maybe Idaho's leaders should look at what Colorado is doing?

Default Standing Rock in Idaho

News from Wild Idaho Rising Tide


SANDPOINT & MOSCOW! In response to requests by indigenous and allied activists at the direct action camps challenging Dakota Access pipeline construction in North Dakota, Wild Idaho Rising Tide (WIRT), Nimiipuu (Nez Perce) Protecting the Environment, and Palouse Environmental Sustainability Coalition are co-hosting weekend #NoDAPL solidarity rallies in Moscow and Sandpoint, Idaho (see attached event flyers). Join dozens of concerned citizens at the water fountain in Friendship Square at Fourth and Main streets in downtown Moscow at 5 pm on Friday evening, September 16, and near the spray pool in Jeff Jones Downtown Square at Third and Main streets in Sandpoint at 1 pm on Saturday afternoon, September 17. Please bring your signs and banners supporting this pipeline opposition, your reflections on water protection and fossil fuels resistance in the Great Plains and inland Northwest, and your willingness to protest investors proliferating destructive fossil fuel transport. WIRT hopes to provide a more comprehensive report about the situation soon, with information about opportunities to support this historic convergence and campaign. For now, we gratefully anticipate seeing you at these actions in Moscow and Sandpoint this weekend. ~Helen

Now it gets a little easier to make that first section of the hike/climb up Scotchman Peaks. But remember, don't feed the mountain goats!

(The picture is mine, from the Friends of Scotchman Peaks entry in the 2016 Fourth of July parade in Clark Fork!)

This is a great graphic Syringaloid. I agree with you.....time to ask CO what they are doing that is so successful in education. If I read that correctly, CO is the top state in the west.

I also agree, usually the coastal states get the comparisons and higher marks. WTG Colorado.
