America's beloved monarch butterfly is facing possible listing as a threatened species. The Trump administration is expected to announce this week if it supports protecting the monarch under the endangered species act. Climate change, development and heavy farm use of herbicides have wiped out well over a hundred million acres of monarch habitat. And numbers of West Coast monarchs in particular have plummeted from the millions in the 1980s to the low thousands today. Environmental groups say grassroots efforts to raise the monarchs' host plant, milkweed, aren't enough to save the orange and black butterfly in the global extinction crisis. 654

Are you looking for some steaks to throw on the grill this weekend or on the Fourth of July?You may want to bring extra money; the pandemic is sending meat prices up sharply this month.High prices are starting to impact consumers, restaurants, and anyone who cooks meat for their business.Tyrique Ramsey and his family have served his community from a food truck for years, but he was forced to raise prices last week as pork costs skyrocketed."We used to be able to get it for .99 a pound, but now we are almost paying .99 a pound," Ramsey said.While chicken and ground beef prices are higher, the worst is steak, where prices have gone up almost 50% this year on some cuts. for a package of steakAt Walmart, basic strip steaks were a pound, which came to for a package of two small, shrink-wrapped steaks.One of the cheapest cuts of meat, chuck roast, was a pound, almost double from a year ago.Ground beef was in the (fatty) to (lean) a pound range as well, a far cry from the normal summertime price of a pound in many supermarkets.Shopper Jackie Thompson says she can't afford it anymore."I think it's ridiculous, it is totally ridiculous," she said. " for a steak!"At a nearby supermarket, bone-in ribeyes were at a pound, bringing the total to for one steak. Top-dollar cuts like filet mignon were nowhere to be found.The Hutchinson family wondered if short supplies to blame."It's still pretty thin in the meat aisle, for sure," they said.Government blames plant shutdowns and slowdownsThe Bureau of Labor Statistics says processing plant shutdowns continue to cause shortages.Even after those plants reopen, many will be on limited schedules with fewer workers.The Labor report says beef prices rose 11% in May. The average retail price of beef roast rose a whopping 19% during the month.In addition, prices for chicken, tomatoes and even ice cream went up the government said.Restaurants forced to raise pricesRamsey has had to explain why his price board has gone up in recent days, just as many restaurants are raising their menu prices."I just had to go up a few more dollars," he said. "But a lot of the customers, they kind of understand, we explain it to them."Grocery stores insist they are not profiting from rising prices. Still, attorneys general offices in several states are investigating the source of these price hikes, which appear to be linked to processing and slaughterhouse shutdowns due to COVID-19.Until the pandemic subsides, prices could remain on the high side.

An Alabama family is mourning a man killed by police Thanksgiving night after being mistaken for the shooter who injured two people at a mall.An officer fatally shot Emantic Fitzgerald Bradford Jr. about 10 p.m. CT Thursday at the Riverchase Galleria in Hoover, a Birmingham suburb. At the time, authorities said he got into an altercation at the mall and opened fire, injuring two people ages 18 and 12.An officer encountered an armed Bradford fleeing the scene and fatally shot him, police said.But after conducting forensic tests and talking to witnesses, investigators said Bradford might have been involved in the altercation but likely did not fire the rounds that injured the two youths.The gunman is still at large and police have not provided a name or description.Relatives are demanding answers as they mourn a man they call EJ."EJ was a devoted son and brother, who dedicated his life to serving his country and always doing the right thing," his family said in a statement."As we continue to grieve, rest assured that we are working diligently with our legal team to determine exactly what happened and why this police officer killed our son. We will never forget EJ, and ask for your continued prayers during this incredibly difficult time.""They killed him for no reason at all. He wasn't the shooter," his aunt, Catherine Jewell, told reporters. "He was a great guy. He was very respectable ... They did him wrong."Bradford's Facebook page says he was a US Army engineer. But he did not complete advanced individual training and did not serve, said Lt. Col. Manny Ortiz, an Army spokesman.The Bradford family has retained civil rights attorney Benjamin L. Crump, according to a statement from the law firm.Crump previously represented the family of Trayvon Martin, a 17-year-old African-American fatally shot in Florida in 2012. 1852
