Stray Texas Dog DNA Reveals WILD Secret About Their True Identity
This could be one of the *literally* wildest stories to come from the Gulf Shore in quite a while.


Everything is bigger in Texas, so they say, and that includes the grandiose background story of a pack of wild dogs.
Texas is an enormous state. Gargantuan, really. And amongst the rolling hills, crippling dessert heat, and Gulf coast, no shortage of variety can be observed in the Lone Star State’s wildlife.
Heck, one woman even claimed to have hunted, shot, killed, and stuffed the mythical “chupacabra” a few years back.
Of course, the rest of the state has come to calling these animals “Texas Blue Dogs”, and debunking them an nothing but an unfortunately mangey version of an otherwise unexciting animal.
But now, mainstream scientists in the state have made another shocking discovery in the canine world, and this one is verifiable via DNA.
Researchers say a pack of wild canines found frolicking near the beaches of the Texas Gulf Coast carries a substantial amount of red wolf genes, a surprising discovery because the animal was declared extinct in the wild nearly 40 years ago.
The finding has led wildlife biologists and others to develop a new understanding that the red wolf DNA is remarkably resilient after decades of human hunting, loss of habitat and other factors had led the animal to near decimation.
“Overall, it’s incredibly rare to rediscover animals in a region where they were thought to be extinct and it’s even more exciting to show that a piece of an endangered genome has been preserved in the wild,” said Elizabeth Heppenheimer, a Princeton University biologist involved in the research on the pack found on Galveston Island in Texas. The work of the Princeton team was published in the scientific journal Genes.
The genetic analysis found that the Galveston canines appear to be a hybrid of red wolf and coyote, but Heppenheimer cautions that without additional testing, it’s difficult to label the animal.
There are believed to be only 120 to 130 red wolves living freely in Texas, with approximately 200 more living in captivity worldwide.

Police Say Buffalo Supermarket Shooting was Racially Motivated
Local authorities described the crime as “pure evil”.


On Saturday, a young gunman walked into a quiet grocery store in Buffalo, New York and opened fire.
The scene was described as chaotic and “armageddon-like”, as the killer stalked through the store expressionless, cold, and live-streaming the whole thing to the internet. When the horror ended, ten were dead, several others injured, and the city of Buffalo was left scarred.
Now, in a deplorable revelation, police are disclosing that the crime was racially motivated.
An 18-year-old white gunman shot 10 people to death and wounded three on Saturday at a grocery store in a Black neighborhood of upstate New York, before surrendering after what authorities called an act of “racially motivated violent extremism.”
Authorities said the suspect, who was armed with an assault-style rifle and appeared to have acted alone, drove to Buffalo from his home several hours away to launch the afternoon attack that he broadcast in real time on social media platform Twitch, a live video service owned by Amazon.com.
Eleven of the 13 people struck by gunfire were Black, officials said. The two others were white. The racial breakdown of the dead was not made clear.
Hateful online content has been attributed to the killer.
A document circulating online that appeared to have been written by the killer sketched out a to-do list for the attack, including cleaning the gun and testing the livestream.
In addition, a 180-page manifesto outlining ‘The Great Replacement Theory’ – the idea that white people are being replaced by minorities in the United States and other countries – also circulated online, reportedly authored by Gendron.
The suspect has suggested that he chose this particular grocery store on account of the high minority demographics within the ZIP code, further corroborating his hateful basis.

While there are certainly plenty of reasons to worry about the never-ending march into the technological dystopia before us, we have to admit that some of what were seeing is still pretty darn cool.
For many of us, it’s as though we’re living in an episode of The Jetsons. Self-driving cars, video phone calls, apps that can tell you what song you’re listening to in the blink of an eye. These are all revolutionary pieces of technology that we have gained for ourselves in merely the last decade or so.
This week, however, Google may have just taken the cake on powerful consumer electronics, teasing a pair of glasses that can translate languages nearly in real-time.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai on Wednesday teased a pair of smart glasses capable of translating languages in real time.
Pichai showed a video demo of the glasses during Google’s I/O developer summit. While they’re still just a prototype, Google suggested the glasses can show live language translations to the person wearing them.
So, someone with the augmented reality glasses might be able to understand what another person is saying just by reading captions that are presented through the lenses while the other person speaks.
There was no indication as to whether or not the glasses would ever be available to the public, however.
