Novel grazing strategies increase milkweed ( Asclepias spp.) availability and monarch ( Danaus plexippus ) abundance in rangelands
Abstract Introduction: Monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) populations are declining, emphasizing the need for conservation throughout their range. An understudied and underutilized area for conservation includes rangelands managed with livestock grazing. Although this region is on the edge of the eastern monarch population range, rangelands can provide billions of milkweed (Asclepias spp.) stems, the host plant for monarch butterflies.
The Biggest Decision Kevin O'Connell Got Right vs. Saints (And What It Means Moving Forward)
The 5-0 Vikings have certainly been one of the more fascinating teams in the NFL in 2026. The only other undefeated teams are the 49ers and Chiefs, both widely seen as serious contenders across the league. The Vikings, on the other hand, have raised more questions than answers for some. The squad clearly has a dominant defense and an elite special teams group, but the offense has taken time to find an identity. Luckily, that seemed to shift against the Saints.
Harmon's Longship Week 5: Key Takeaways as Vikings Sail South to Defeat Saints for a 5-0 Start
The Minnesota Vikings are docking their ships and returning to shore for a bye-week rest after a decisive 23-13 victory against the struggling New Orleans Saints at the Caesars Superdome. While the scoreboard shows a ten-point game, it never felt that close. The day's most encouraging moments came from the passing game and quarterback Kyler Murray, who's been fighting desperately to prove he fits in this offense.
The Biggest Decision Kevin O'Connell Got Right vs. the Dolphins (And What It Means Moving Forward)
The Vikings are 4-0, but online discourse about their offensive struggles suggests they're one of the most confusing teams in the league. The team's current situation is complicated, to say the least. Sunday marked the second time in four games this season that the team failed to score a single touchdown (shoutout to Will Reichard). Starting quarterback Kyler Murray has only one touchdown on the year as well, after missing most of Week 1 and all of Week 2 with a concussion.

Harmon's Longship Week 4: Key Takeaways as Vikings Start 4-0 After Successful Dolphin Hunt
MINNEAPOLIS, MN - Say what you will about how they've gotten here, but the Vikings are a perfect 4-0 to start their 2026 campaign. They emerged victorious once again on Sunday after defending their home shores from a feisty pack of Dolphins in a 15-10 victory. Despite their own mistakes and continued inconsistency on offense, the Vikings have yet to taste defeat this season. If you were looking for a convincing victory against a winless team from Miami, Sunday's game was certainly anything but.

Vikings' Defense Gets Little Help in Loss to Ravens: Here Are the 3 Things That Mattered Most
MINNEAPOLIS, MN — After two intense days of joint practices earlier this week, the Minnesota Vikings hosted the Baltimore Ravens at U.S. Bank Stadium this afternoon.

The giant stadium doors were opened wide on a beautiful Saturday as J.J. McCarthy and many of the Vikings’ depth players took the field.

Vikings football is back! Well, at least in preseason form, as the Purple and Gold notched a 13-10 win over the Giants on Satrday afternoon. After more than two weeks of training camp reports, speculation, and excitement, it was time to see how the Vikings would match up against an actual opponent.

Losers & Winners From Vikings Training Camp (8/4): QBs Leave Much to Be Desired, Rookie CB Shines & More
EAGAN, MN — Modern NFL training camps are filled with variations in daily intensity and focus, but sometimes players find an opportunity to shine even on the slowest of days. That was the case for the Vikings on Tuesday, as their latest practice was a mixed bag, to say the least. Here are the losers and winners from a relatively uneventful day at TCO Performance Center. Losers: Anyone who paid to attend I’m kidding… a bit.
Three non-QB standouts from the first week of Vikings training camp: Tai Felton making his case on offense
EAGAN, MN — Monday marked the first day of padded practice for the Vikings at this year's training camp, and the level of intensity noticeably kicked up a notch. The defense dominated the day, Jordan Addison and Isaiah Rodgers had a scary midair collision, and both QBs struggled in two-minute drills. More than anything, though, we got to see which players were beginning to stack successful days on top of each other.
5 Vikings Not Named JJ McCarthy with the Most to Prove in Training Camp
This year's Vikings training camp is here with a roster loaded with players looking to make a statement before August ends. Some players' jobs are already locked, while others—like quarterback J.J. McCarthy—must win a competition if they want to play a key role in head coach Kevin O'Connell's plans.

The Cultural Preservation of Ecuador through Art
Keywords Ecuador, art, indigenous cultures, cultural diversity College Fine Arts and Communications Abstract The purpose of my project was to research the indigenous cultures of Ecuador through art (painting, drawing, and photography). My hope was to bring a lot of visual reference home, and to create an art show that would inform its viewer of the rich cultural diversity of some of the many indigenous cultures found in the diverse climates and regions of Ecuador.
Plant-pollinator networks in grassland working landscapes reveal seasonal shifts in network structure and composition
Abstract Declines in native bee populations can limit pollination services that support native plant communities and global food production. Mitigating the impacts on pollinators and ecosystems requires conservation actions that promote biodiversity and remain practical for producers. We investigated plant–pollinator interaction networks in working grassland landscapes, managed for cattle production and biodiversity, to advance conservation of pollinators in grazed systems.
