At least until a flock was found in Yellowstone, making the region a big reason for the iconic bird’s rebound.

With climate change and aging infrastructure, experts say other mountain communities could see similar disasters.

The three-judge U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver ruled Wednesday the case wasn't appealable because it could be refiled in a lower court. Six members of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority chapter in Laramie, Wyoming, sued to challenge Artemis Langford's admittance into the organization.
