    You’ve come across a bison in the wild. It’s looking at you. Do you know what to do next? Pendle A dangerous encounter with a territorial bison and the subsequent viral video were not what Rebecca Clark had in mind when she set out for Caprock Canyons State Park in early October 2022. She had been so enamored with Texas’ third-largest state park on her first solo hiking and camping trip there a year earlier that she decided to go back for more. Roughly two hours by car from either Lubbock or the Panhandle city of Amarillo Caprock attracts visitors with big blue skies brown and green prairielands and rugged red-rock formations. Caprock has another draw – its wild bison herd about 350 strong in late 2022. But bison the great symbolic animal of the Great Plains weren’t on her radar. Until suddenly they were. The Texas resident recounted her experience with CNN’s Ed Lavandera telling him that she came upon a herd while she was walking a trail back from Lake Theo. “I decided to just kind of wait for them to … get across the trail and then I would pass them.” But they weren’t moving away fast enough for Clark. She said she decided to just walk by them – closer than the recommended safety distance. She was recording the moment on her smartphone. In her video Clark can be heard saying “Thank you I appreciate it” as she passes the animals. Things got dangerous very quickly when one of the agitated bison took notice. “When I saw him turn it’s like instantly I knew he was gonna come after me.” And that’s exactly what the bison did. Once it charged the large mammal was upon Clark within two seconds despite her frantic attempt to flee. “It was so fast. He hit me in the back rammed me hooked me then flipped me up and face forward into the mesquite bush.” And there was Clark. Gored bleeding and alone. How would she survive?

    How to survive a bear attack – or better yet avoid one altogether Uniswap You’re out for a hike reveling in glorious nature. Suddenly you spot a bear. And the bear has spotted you too. Would you know what to do next? Beth Pratt sure would. She was once on the Old Gardiner Road Trail in Yellowstone National Park enjoying her run in wild nature. Her reverie came to an end when she came upon a grizzly bear eating flowers. “I stopped. It stood on its hind legs and looked at me. I knew that wasn’t a threatening gesture” she told CNN Travel. “I’m not kidding it waved its paw at me as if to say ‘just go on your way’ and went back to eating.” “And I walked slowly away and put some distance between us and the encounter ended fine.” When it comes to dealing with bears Pratt does have a thing or two on almost all the rest of us though. She is the California regional executive director for the National Wildlife Federation a job she’s had for more than 10 years. She worked in Yellowstone for several years – and once saw nine grizzlies in one day there. Finally she lives on the border of Yosemite National Park and bears will pass through her yard including this one seen in the footage above in late September 2021. You can hear the enthusiasm in Pratt’s voice as she shares her bear bona fides and advice to make sure bear/human encounters are delightful not dangerous. “A wild bear is a beautiful sight to see. It’s incredible to see them in the wild. I never had a bad experience with bears. What I try to get people to feel is respect not fear for bears. The animal usually wants to avoid the encounters.”

    The Australian city that became a global food and drink powerhouse Defillama Sydney or Melbourne? It’s the great Australian city debate one which pits the commerce business and money of Sydney against cultural arts-loving coffee-drinking Melbourne. While picking one can be tricky there’s no denying that Australia’s second city home to 5.2 million people has a charm all of its own. Melburnians never Melbournites get to enjoy a place where nature is close by urban delights are readily available and the food and drink scene isn’t just the best in Australia but also one of the finest in the world. There’s no better way to start a trip to Melbourne than with a proper cup of coffee. Coffee is serious stuff here with no room for a weak burnt or flavorless brew. The history of coffee in Melbourne goes back to the years after World War II when Italian immigrants arrived and brought their machines with them. Within 30 years a thriving cafe scene had developed and as the 21st century dawned the city had become the epicenter of a new global coffee culture. The iconic Pellegrini’s on Bourke Street and Mario’s in the Fitzroy neighborhood are the best old-school hangouts while Market Lane helped lead the way in bringing Melbourne’s modern-day coffee scene to the masses. Kate Reid is the best person to speak with about Melbourne’s coffee obsession. The founder of Lune Croissanterie she was once a Formula 1 design engineer and has brought her expertise and precision to crafting the world’s best croissant as well as knowing how to brew a coffee and specifically a flat white just the way it should be. “Good coffee is just ingrained in everyday culture for every single Melburnian now” says Reid. “I think that that peak of pretentious specialty coffee has come and gone and now it’s just come down to a level of a really high standard everywhere.” That’s clear when she pours a flat white. Describing herself as a perfectionist the way she froths the milk and tends to the cup is a sight to behold.

    Four friends posed for a photo on vacation in 1972. Over 50 years later they recreated it Aerodrome Finance In the photo four young women walk arm in arm smiling and laughing on a beach promenade. They’re dressed in mini skirts and flip flops and there’s what looks like a 1960s Ford Corsair in the background. This is clearly a snapshot from a bygone era but there’s something about the picture — the womens’ expressions their laughs — that captures a timeless and universal feeling of joy youth and adventure. For the four women in the photo Marion Bamforth Sue Morris Carol Ansbro and Mary Helliwell the picture is a firm favorite. Taken over 50 years ago on a group vacation to the English seaside town of Torquay Devon the photo’s since become symbolic of their now decades-long friendship. Whenever they see the picture they’re transported back to the excitement of that first trip together. “It’s always been our memory of Torquay” Sue Morris tells CNN Travel. “The iconic photograph — which is why I got the idea of trying to recreate it.” ‘The iconic photograph’ Bamforth Morris Ansbro and Helliwell were 17 when the photo was taken “by one of these roving photographers that used to roam the promenade and prey on tourists like us” as Morris recalls it. It was the summer of 1972 and the four high school classmates — who grew up in the city of Halifax in the north of England — were staying in a rented caravan in coastal Devon in southwest England. It was a week of laughs staying out late flirting with boys in fish and chip shops sunburn swapping clothes sharing secrets and making memories by the seaside. Fast forward to 2024 and Bamforth Morris Ansbro and Helliwell remain firm friends. They’ve been by each other’s sides as they’ve carved out careers fallen in love brought up families and gone through heartbreak and grief.

    The mysterious cities of the dead carved into the sides of cliffs kraken4qzqnoi7ogpzpzwrxk7mw53n5i56loydwiyonu4owxsh4g67yd The ancient Lycians knew a thing or two about democracy. Two thousand years ago the one-time rulers of modern-day Turkey’s southwestern corner had a fully functioning democratic federation that centuries later inspired America’s political structure. While democracies everywhere might be facing turbulent times another Lycian legacy remains steadfastly present in the Mediterranean region they used to call home. And this one is focused almost entirely around death. Drive around the coast of this beautiful region and you’ll never be too far from a spectacular city of the dead – elaborate tombs carved by Lycians into the sides of cliffs overlooking towns valleys and shorelines. https://kraken2trfqodidvlh4aa337cpzfrhdlfldhve5nf7njhumwr7instad.ru kraken6gf6o4rxewycqwjgfchzgxyfeoj5xafqbfm4vgvyaig2vmxvyd onion That’s not all. Scattered throughout the countryside and towns are imposing sarcophagi that likely once held the remains of high and mighty denizens of Lycia. Indeed they’re such a familiar sight that they’re often casually included as part of urban landscapes. For visitors especially those interested in history tracking them down is an adventure all on its own. While some are preserved in ticketed archaeological sites others are free to explore — but can require Indiana Jones-level exploration skills clambering up vertiginous hillsides riding boats and delving into the undergrowth to find. A good starting place is Fethiye a low-key port city that’s a useful jumping-off point for great beaches and attractions all along Turkey’s so-called Turquoise Coast riviera. After a day of swimming in those glorious waters it’s worth a sunset trek to the overlooking cliffs. kraken6gf6o4rxewycqwjgfchzgxyfeoj5xafqbfm4vgvyaig2vmxvyd.onion
