In 2024, the small outpost of Cinnabar, Montana, is a ghost town that has been abandoned since the early 1900s. But step back to 1890, and Cinnabar is the newly opened hub of the Northern Pacific Railroad and one of the busiest towns in Montana...

The full Moon is a mating call for one of the ocean's most extraordinary phenomena, when thousands of red snapper gather in what can only be described as a frenzied fish orgy.

For the desert tortoise, an approximately 1-foot-long reptile found in desert valleys across California and the American Southwest, a full lifespan can be up to 80 years. So while the Mojave National Preserve recently marked its 30th birthday, many of the tortoises inhabiting the area were already well into middle age when the National Park Service began managing the land they call home.

In Quintana Roo, an hour from Playa del Carmen and just a mile off the highway, the jungle becomes lush, dense and inaccessible on foot. But plunge 100 feet straight down into one of the region's many cenotes and the view changes quite a bit.
