• UW CALSNR announces departmental honors (wylr.net) — A University of Wyoming agriculture student from Casper, David Kienzle, has been named a Gilman Scholar, highlighting local talent in a highly competitive study-abroad program.

• WGFD offers outlook for small, upland game this hunting season (wylr.net) — Hunters around Casper should expect fewer gray partridge and chukar this fall, while sage grouse numbers are stable but likely to dip after low poult production.
