Exciting wildlife news! Last year biologists found the first ocelot den in 20 years on Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge in south Texas. At the den, researchers found a 3-week old male ocelot kitten (pictured here). Ocelots used to range from South Texas up into Arkansas and Louisiana, but today there are an estimated 50 ocelots that remain in the United States, Known as the “little leopard,” ocelots have a long, ringed tail and are recognized by their distinct spots and rounded ears.

2017 is kicking off with some excitement at Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park. Last week a 22-acre section of a lava delta broke apart and sank into the ocean causing the closing of a viewing area. Now, from the new viewing area, visitors can witness a “fire hose” of lava streaming into the ocean. The molten rock sends huge clouds of steam and gas into the air as it hits the Pacific. It’s a sight you’ll never forget. Photos by National Park Service.

Sometimes, the most remarkable moments in life are the simple ones. There will be 365 sunsets at Glacier National Park in Montana this year. Don’t you think you should see at least one? Photo by Jacob W. Frank, National Park Service.
