    Badgers in Kentucky? One Was Documented Right Here in Daviess County (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    When I visit the Owensboro Museum of Science & History and check out the taxidermy mounts representing creatures found in our region, the presence of a badger always mystifies me. I've lived here all my life and have never seen—or even heard mention of—a badger in this area. Well, apparently that badger knows something I don't. According to the Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources, recent records of American badgers in Daviess and Warren counties may indicate the species is expanding

    A Saw Actor Is Filming a New Thriller in Kentucky (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Four years ago, when we reported that Orlando Bloom’s crime drama Red Right Hand was filming in Campbellsburg, New Castle and elsewhere in Kentucky, I had no idea how often I’d be writing about movie crews in the Commonwealth. Since then, Ethan Hawke has filmed his Flannery O’Connor biopic Wildcat here, Bill Skarsgård has starred in the Kentucky-shot true crime thriller Dead Man’s Wire, and multiple Christmas movies have used Kentucky as a backdrop.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Want to know what earworm has been resounding through my brain for the better part of the last hour? If you read the headline, then I think it's safe to say you know the answer. Yes, it's "Sweet Georgia Brown." And, naturally, I’ve been whistling it the entire time. I dare anyone to write about a Harlem Globetrotters appearance in their hometown and not have that pervasive melody occupying space between their ears.

    Kentucky’s Measles Count Climbs to 67, More Than Double Last Month's Total (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When I wrote about Kentucky’s growing measles outbreak last month, the state had reported 29 cases across seven counties. By Friday morning, that statewide count had climbed to 67, according to the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services. The number requires a little context. Four cases in Jessamine County were reported earlier this year and are not connected to the current outbreak. That puts the current outbreak total at 63 cases. The state’s dashboard, updated at 9 a.m. Friday, showed

    A Special Deer Season Starts This Week in 21 Kentucky Counties (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Statewide archery season for Kentucky deer hunters began September 5th, while the Commonwealth's crossbow season kicked off September 19th. But deer hunters in parts of Western Kentucky have an additional season coming up, one that comes with very specific rules. And no, I'm not referring to modern gun season, which starts on November 14th; the "additional season" in question is this weekend, September 25-28. It's a special antlerless gun season, but only for certain counties--those in Deer Zone
