The Shark Deck. I'm Johnny Mac
with five good news stories. A bear

2
00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:18.519
in Boulder, Colorado took some selfies
four hundred times. Boulders Open Space and

3
00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:23.760
Mountain Parks Department operates nine motion activated
wildlife cameras across it's forty six thousand acres

4
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:28.079
of land. An inquisitive bear triggered
one of the cameras, and of five

5
00:00:28.199 --> 00:00:33.679
hundred and eighty photos captured, four
hundred were bear selfies. A spokesperson said,

6
00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:36.600
we're fortunate to live in an area
with rich diversity wildlife, and these

7
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:39.640
cameras help us learn what animals are
really out there and what they're up to

8
00:00:39.719 --> 00:00:42.399
over the course of a day,
week, or even years. And obviously

9
00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:46.799
they're on Instagram. A good news
for Ronald the dog. Ronald had been

10
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:51.880
returned to the shelter fourteen times,
but he has found his forever home.

11
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:57.359
Ronald's a sixty four pound mixed breed
poppy, but apparently people kept adopting them

12
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:00.479
and then brought them back for one
reason or another. Kirsten Davis is a

13
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:03.599
nurse from Raeford, North Carolina.
She was put on a wait list for

14
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:08.040
Ronald, popular dog returned fourteen times
and there's still a wait list. After

15
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:11.120
a five day trial adoption, Davis
knew Ronald was meant to be part of

16
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:17.200
her family. She officially adopted him
in January. That's awesome. A group

17
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:21.280
of students has built a robotic hand
for their fifteen year old classmate, who

18
00:01:21.319 --> 00:01:25.799
said the device changed his life.
This is in Tennessee. Classmates of Sergio

19
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:30.079
built him a robotic hand. A
teacher who had learned that Sergio's hand was

20
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:34.000
not fully formed told him his students
could help. Sergio said when he first

21
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:36.480
got to the high school, he
felt like hiding his arm in a sleeve.

22
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:38.000
However, Jeff Wilkins, a teacher
at the school, found out about

23
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.599
Sergio's hand and assigned his students the
task of building him a robotic one.

24
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:46.920
The three students who took up the
challenge spent a month designing the prosthetic using

25
00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:51.000
online software and three D printing techniques. One of the students told the local

26
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:53.400
CBS affiliate, you're supposed to be
engineering, coming up with new ideas,

27
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:57.519
solving issues, and just making things
better than how they used to be.

28
00:01:57.719 --> 00:02:00.200
To test it out, Sergio caught
a ball this right hand for the first

29
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:04.040
time, and everybody freaked out.
He said, they changed my life.

30
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:07.439
You know good news if you were
a butterfly in Oregon. The Fenders Blue

31
00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:13.120
butterfly has made such a good recovery
that its status has been changed from endangered

32
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:16.000
to just threatened. The butterfly is
only found in Williamette Valley in Oregon.

33
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:20.680
It was believed to be extinct until
it was rediscovered in nineteen eighty nine.

34
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:23.919
In twenty sixteen, there were an
estimated twenty nine thousand Fenders Blues, up

35
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:32.800
from just four thousand at the turn
of the century. I am Patty Callahan

49
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:45.680
don't have money to pay for a
scoop of ice cream. Charles Foreman owns

the end of it. You know,

51
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:51.039
ice cream? You get it,
Yes, you get it. Foreman open

52
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:54.479
the ice cream shop in DC's Pentworth
neighborhood in twenty twenty one. He ensures

53
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:58.680
that everyone walks away with a cone, regardless of their ability to pay.

54
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:01.639
After one of his regular customers,
Nicoll, saw Foreman give a free scoop

55
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:04.719
to a kid who didn't have any
money. She came back with an envelope

56
00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:09.039
containing one hundred bucks. That's enough
to pay for twenty eight scoops. Yeah,

57
00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:11.319
you're doing the math in your head, right, I did lazy math,

58
00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:14.599
three fifty scoop something like that.
Mister Charles is so great and the

59
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:16.800
ice cream is excellent two says Nicole. But that was just the start.

60
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:20.199
Other customers heard about what happened and
they made their own donations to the ice

61
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:24.680
cream fund. Foreman said he could
tell when somebody's gone through hard time and

62
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.720
doesn't hesitate off of them a free
scoop. He says, it's just part

63

of being the community, supposed to
do all we can to help each other.
