THE ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE

Two Arkansans hold hummingbirds in their hands nearly every day.

If you ask them nicely, they will let you watch.

Don McSwain and Tana Beasley, aka “Team Bandit,” catch and release many angry little birds as part of their daily work for the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. (more…)

  • Adopt a Pet

    Wendall is a male, tricolor terrier mix puppy that was found running through traffic on Main Street in downtown North Little Rock.

    Had he not been picked up, his outcome would not have been so happy. He is about 3 months old.

    He resides with 3 cats and 2 dogs. He tries to be the "big" dog but is really a scaredy cat. He is very well-behaved for a puppy but does love to run around and play with others. He loves to nap in a lap and sleeps in a crate at night.

    He is in potty training. He does great in a secure fence with other dogs around. He is very loyal, is learning to walk on a leash and is always a couple steps behind you.

    He looks like the dog in the movie "Because of Winn Dixie." The dog is a Picardy Shepard, so Wendall may be a a rare, little street treasure.

    He is up-to-date on shots and will be neutered.
