ADK Life: Watch as Dog Stands Guard Vs. Bear in Backyard
There s been no shortage of wild animal/human interaction gone viral in recent weeks and some of these videos have been downright unbelievable. This week we saw that incredible video from California where a 17-year-old girl
pushed a large bear off of her porch when it got too close and threatened her dogs. These kinds of things happen all of the time and I for one, cannot get enough. I m obsessed, and while the Capital Region/Upstate isn t actually Yellowstone National Park, we do boast an incredible array of wildlife thanks in large part to the Adirondacks and their 5,000 square miles of mountains, lakes, streams and forest it covers throughout our great state.

I m 17 years old only child and I was 11 when my mom and dad split up. I don t have much of a relationship with my mom but I m very close to my father who I ve lived with ever since the divorce. We are really really close and he always says that no matter what, I m his #1 girl.
Well, that s about to change because my dad recently told me that he has plans to get married again.
I think he was hoping I d be happy for him, but I wasn t. I m not trying to be selfish here but I know my dad and I honestly don t think the girl he s with now is the right one and I don t wan him to get hurt again. He asked me what I thought- and I was honest but I think I may have caused him undue stress by telling him I think it s a bad idea. Was I being selfish telling him the truth even though he asked? Please help
Back in April, someone cryptically placed a beautifully painted, well-crafted rocking chair with the likeness of a young girl inside City Park in Glens Falls.
