In rural Panama, dogs act like living alarms for two dangerous diseases spread by bugs. One disease, called American cutaneous leishmaniasis, causes skin sores and is carried by sandflies. The other, Chagas disease, attacks the heart and is spread by kissing bugs. Both diseases are common in the sam
Two climbers clung to a rocky cliff in New Zealand for three freezing nights after their rescue beacon activated. Heavy rain and poor visibility delayed their extraction until conditions improved. Though they used a makeshift shelter, waterlogged gear made survival difficult. One climber’s family ra
