“ By Stanford Medicine : Scientists at Stanford Medicine have discovered a treatment that can reverse cartilage loss in aging joints and even prevent arthritis after knee injuries. By blocking a protein linked to aging, the therapy restored healthy, shock-absorbing cartilage in old mice and injured joints, dramatically improving movement and joint function. Human cartilage samples from knee replacement surgeries also began regenerating when exposed to the treatment.”

Olympic marmots, a unique species that only live in the Olympic mountain range in Washington, are being considered for federal protection because of threats like habitat loss and #climatechange. Their population is declining because their high elevation meadows are shrinking due to climate change. One suggestion is to reintroduce wolves to the Olympic Peninsula to help manage the coyote population and protect the marmots.
