Video captures a lone female pulling crab traps out of the water, but does it count as tool use?In 2023, Haíɫzaqv Nation guardians—members of an Indigenous stewardship program that works to monitor and protect their territory—noticed something peculiar on the Central Coast of British Columbia. Their crab traps, some of which were submerged in deep water, showed signs of repeated damage. Soon after, footage from a remote camera captured a female wolf emerging from the water with a buoy in her mouth, expertly pulling the attached line to retrieve the trap. She then ate the tasty bait inside. The unexpected discovery could potentially represent the first known example of tool use in wild wolves, scientists report today in Ecology and Evolution.
“The behavior is really impressive,” says Bradley Smith, a comparative psychologist at Central Queensland University who has documented tool use in captive dingoes. The new study documents a type of cognitive sophistication “that we often reserve for primates, elephants, and crows,” he says. Whether it counts as tool use, however, ultimately depends on how that term is defined. | |

A widely used internet infrastructure company said that it has resolved an issue that led to outages impacting users of everything from ChatGPT and the online game, “League of Legends,” to the New Jersey Transit system early Tuesday.
Around 10 a.m. ET, Cloudflare said it was “continuing to monitor for errors to ensure all services are back to normal.”
Other platforms that experienced outages Tuesday included the social media site X, Shopify, Dropbox, Coinbase, and the Moody’s credit ratings service. Moody’s website displayed an Error Code 500 and instructed individuals to visit Cloudflare’s website for more information.
New Jersey Transit said parts of its digital services including njtransit.com, may be temporarily unavailable or slow to load. | |

A 45-year-old Riverside County man, who reportedly works as a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent, is accused of illegally detaining a minor at gunpoint while off duty last week.
The Nov. 10 incident, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, played out at around 10:30 pm outside a home in the 32000 block of Daybrook Terrance in Temecula.
Lawyer Greg Kirakosian, who represents the boy and his family, told KTLA that the 17-year-old was driving home after dropping a friend off down the street when he saw the suspect, identified by investigators as Gerardo Rodriguez, pointing a gun at his vehicle, demanding he pull over.
“In the moment, I think he was just scared for his life. He had a gun pulled on him, and he was told to immediately stop or else,” he explained. “Then that same person came up to his driver’s side door and pulled him out at gunpoint.”
In footage of the incident obtained by KTLA, the 45-year-old is seen pulling a gun from his waistband as he walked up the street, pointing it at the teen’s truck and demanding he stop the vehicle while reportedly brandishing his badge. | |
