Breakfast of Champions 5/9: Up the wolves
Filed under: Breakfast of Champions
From the department of "late notice, but you don't want to miss this," comes an incredibly rare chance to see baby wolves. This afternoon, you can see 12- to 14-day-old wolf pups.
Today, Friday, May 9, the pups will meet the public at an event from 3:30-5:30 pm at the Wildlife Science Center in Forest Lake. It's $5 for adults and $4 for children, which is plenty cheap, and all the money goes to help support educational programs at the WSC. Later that evening, the pups will move to the center's flagship educational facility in Ely.
The International Wolf Center staff will care for the young gray wolves, who will join eight-year-old arctic wolves Malik and Shadow and four-year-old great plains wolves Maya and Grizzer, at the Ely interpretive facility.
There's going to be a party when the wolf comes home. I'll be there with a camera, and you should be, too. Suggested listening:
DAILY DISH: WHAT'S NEW AROUND THE SITE
Filling your punk rock quotient was a Triple Rock show that featured Kitten Forever. Erin Roof reviewed; Tony Nelson photographed four of the six bands.
Three new posts on the food blog, two of them about tasty things. Okonomiyaki is among the best stuff on earth, and James Norton tells you where to get it on Sundays. We've got a refreshing drink suggestion for spring. Finally, Chino Latino's latest billboard is in poor taste, writes Rachel Hutton. Maybe someone will call them a fratboy snark sheet. Maybe not. Either way, I'm not eating there.
Will Amy Klobuchar have a shot a the vice presidency? She's the second Minnesotan to be mentioned in the VP race.
We pick on Katherine Kersten a lot here. That's because she deserves it. But we've never photoshopped her into Mortal Kombat before. Ward Rubrecht fixes this oversight.
Gary Hodges hides video game material from his girlfriend. Not everything. Just a few things. Here are the top five.
Books: is there anything they can't do? Revitalizing the warehouse district is on that can-do list, says the New York Times.
I fix potholes. Not for the money. Not even for the love. Just for you. You, the reader.
With all the media attention focused around Hillary Clinton and the Democratic race, it's remarkable that these race-baiting comments haven't gotten more attention.
