    Move over wolves and lynx – you may soon have a new neighbor. On March 4, state legislators, including our own Rep. Barbara McLachlan, D-Durango, took the first step toward reintroducing the North American wolverine to Colorado. Senate Bill 24-171 is set to kickstart the animal’s reintroduction following its listing as a threatened species in late 2023. In Colorado, legislative action is required before Colorado Parks and Wildlife can begin reintroduction of any threatened or endangered species.

While not exactly the Jumbotron at Ball Arena, the new display will offer replays, live action, stats and information, graphic special effects and general crowd pumping-upping, all in “115,000 vibrant pixels” according to a press release.

    It’s a Christmas miracle – or at least a really nice present. After several years of taking the week between Christmas and New Year’s off for some well-deserved R&R (aka “ripping” and “riding”), the Telegraph will be printing next week, Dec. 28. “We decided, if we work all week, it pretty much guarantees that it will dump the entire time we are chained to our stand-up desk or out shlepping papers,” Telegraph owner Missy Votel told no one. “That’s usually the way it works.
