"Bald eagles across the United States are dying from lead bullets -- but it's not because they're being shot. The Cape Fear Raptor Center, North Carolina's largest eagle rehab facility, has treated seven eagles in the past month for lead poisoning, executive director Dr. Joni Shimp told CNN."
"The Bureau of Land Management's proposal to remove more than 1,700 wild horses from a Nevada herd area complies with federal laws, a judge has ruled."
"The platypus is imperiled by habitat loss, predation by feral cats, and now drought and wildfires wrought by climate change."

This special report is designed to help journalists in the Pacific Northwest cover the impacts of climate change, as well as the actions taken to mitigate its worst effects and to adapt to what can’t be stopped. The report includes a wide-ranging issue backgrounder and tipsheets on climate impacts, mitigation and adaptation, plus a toolbox of sources. Read on for a wealth of story ideas for right now, and over the coming decade. We hope this is the first in a series of regional climate special reports, and welcome your suggestions [34] and ideas for future editions of "Covering Your Climate."
