[Music] This wildlife refuge was established for the protection of native fishes. Eight species of native Rio Yaki fishes. [Music] The jaguar occurs in the Rio Yaki down all of these drainages. Now these drainages are completely dammed up. We're going to cease to see jaguars in the U.S. if they complete all of these border walls. Currently, there's one roaming around the Dos Cabezas Chiricahua Swiss Helm Mountains. Could be stuck here.

There you go. Now this is where what I call the easter egg hunt. See what you get. We put these cameras out here because there were reports from refuge personnel that they were seeing a lot of wildlife moving through the refuge. Every time I would come to check these cameras this winter, there'd be a couple mountain lions, lots of bobcats, more javelina than you could shake a stick at, and now there's like nothing.

I checked this camera now and there was one skunk out of 1641 pictures. The wall is not even completed, and we're already seeing a pretty pronounced effect. Yeah, this is personal. I wake up at 4 AM with images of this border wall that are just burned into my head. It's going to be that feeling like when somebody you love has died.

I'm watching the destruction of nature. I'm watching the systematic destruction of nature [Music] including all the water they're using. You know, million gallons a day. It's really a crime against nature, and it's a crime against this country. I really wish that the rest of America would see this. [Music] [Music] You

Using recursive formulas of geometric sequences | Mathematics I | High School Math | Khan Academy

The geometric sequence ( a_i ) is defined by the formula where the first term ( a_1 ) is equal to -1⁄8 and then every term after that is defined as being so ( a_i ) is going to be two times the term before that. So, ( ai ) is ( 2 \times a{i-1} ). What is…

Morning Caribou before Coffee (Clip) | Alaska: The Next Generation

You can never really put your finger on exactly what caribou are going to do. They move from one place to another, and just when I think I start to understand them, they do something completely different. So I just woke up and came outside to go to the b…

Limit of (1-cos(x))/x as x approaches 0 | Derivative rules | AP Calculus AB | Khan Academy

What we want to do in this video is figure out what the limit as ( x ) approaches ( z ) of ( \frac{1 - \cos(x)}{x} ) is equal to. We’re going to assume we know one thing ahead of time: we’re going to assume we know that the limit as ( x ) approaches ( 0 )…

Sampling distribution of the difference in sample means | AP Statistics | Khan Academy

What we’re going to do in this video is explore the sampling distribution for a difference in sample means, and we’ll use this example right over here. So it tells us a large bakery makes thousands of cupcakes daily in two shifts: shift A and shift B. Su…

Airing it under control, the best time forward. Bump, bump, quick, good, neutral, great! Now it’s a tuna. Having this fish hooked up amongst the fleet is great. If we can land this fish, it would be the first one landed. It could be a good shot in the ar…

Stop Caring About What Isn't Yours: Epictetus’ Lessons from My Novel

Stoic philosopher Epictetus didn’t sugarcoat anything. He was direct and told the listener exactly how it was – at least, from the Stoic perspective. His no-nonsense approach, which becomes apparent when reading what’s left of his lectures, is why I love …
