A third beluga whale rescued from Canada has died at Shedd; a fourth died last week in Spain (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A fourth whale out of 30 rescued from a troubled Canadian marine park has died. It is the third rescued whale to die at Shedd Aquarium after being transferred there this summer for rehabilitation. A longtime resident beluga also died at the aquarium in recent weeks. In a blog post, the Shedd’s staff said Osiris, a 26-year-old female beluga, had been facing health challenges. On Friday, Jelly Bean died after being moved from Canada to Oceanogràfic Valencia in Spain. The more than two dozen whales
Line 5 returns to service after 1.3 million-gallon spill in Wisconsin, but scrutiny of Great Lakes pipeline plan intensifies (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Almost three weeks after at least 1.3 million gallons of hazardous natural gas liquids spilled from an aging oil pipeline in northern Wisconsin, grinding service to a halt, fossil fuels once again began gushing through it last weekend.

Five spring frosts killed most of the blooms on their trees, she said, forcing Prairie Sky Orchard to close for the 2026 fall harvest season. âIn the last few years, theyâve been blooming ahead of schedule because weâre getting warmer weather earlier, and itâs just cyclic,â Arndt said. âWeâve had some frosts in t
Army Corps resumes work at Brandon Road Project as invasive carp encroach on Illinois River (opens the original)
Read excerpt
More than a month after the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers halted work on the Brandon Road Lock and Dam near Joliet, part of a $1.15 billion project to keep invasive carp out of the Great Lakes, the agency announced last week it would resume construction. The Army Corps’ Rock Island District — the main federal sponsor — issued a stop-work order on July 24 “without explanation or warning,” advocates say, except to say the project was “under administrative review.” Just three weeks later, the Illino
