Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

SUMMARY
=======
The Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests are two 2.76-million-acre (11,169 km2) United States National Forests which run along the Mogollon Rim and the White Mountains in east-central Arizona and into the U.S. state of New Mexico. Both forests are managed as one unit by USDA Forest Service from the forests Supervisors Office in Springerville, Arizona. Apache-Sitgreaves has over 400 species of wildlife. With its high elevation and cool summer breezes it is a popular weekend destination from the hot desert for Phoenix, Arizona residents. The forest is divided into 5 Ranger Districts (Clifton, Alpine, Springerville, Lakeside, and Black Mesa) that span almost 300 miles (480 km) from Clifton, Arizona in the east-central portion of Arizona to the eastern boundary of the Coconino National Forest in north-central Arizona. The Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest borders the western and northern borders of the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. It is located in parts of Greenlee, Apache, Navajo, and Coconino counties in eastern and east-central Arizona, and Catron County in western New Mexico. The more northwesterly Sitgreaves National Forest portion lies adjacent to the north side of the Fort Apache Indian Reservation and is located entirely in Arizona, within Navajo, Apache, and Coconino counties. It has a total area of 818,651 acres (3,313 km2). The more southeasterly and much larger Apache National Forest portion lies adjacent to the east side of the Fort Apache and the San Carlos Indian Reservations. It lies on both sides of the border with New Mexico, in Greenlee, Catron, and Apache counties. It has a total area of 1,813,601 acres (7,339 km2).

Arizona Fugitives McCluskey and Welch Apprehended!
SPRINGERVILLE, Ariz. - John McCluskey and Casslyn Welch, the Arizona prison escapee and his accomplice, who are also wanted for a double murder, have been apprehended in Springerville, Arizona.
According to the Apache County Sheriff's Office, a tipster called 911 spotting a couple matching their description at a campground on the edge of the Apache Sitgreaves National Forest.
McCluskey and Welch, who are engaged and also cousins, been positively identified and the national manhunt is over. The two, who thought of themselves as the modern day Bonnie and Clyde, went willingly.
It was feared they would put up a fight, but were arrested without incident and now face a multitude of charges.
Authorities had been focusing their search efforts in the northern United States, near the Canada border, but it turns out they were hiding out just 300-some miles from where McCluskey and two other inmates broke out of a medium security prison, with Welch's alleged help, on July 30.
Fellow escapees and convicted killers Daniel Renwick and Tracy Province were already caught. Renwick was captured and returned to custody on August 1 after a car chase and shootout with police in Rifle, Colo., and Province was apprehended without incident August 9 outside a church in Meeteetse, Wyo., in the state's northwest Park County.
Forensic evidence has implicated McCluskey and Welch in two murders in New Mexico.
McCluskey and Welch have been transported to the Apache County Jail.
A press conference will be held in Phoenix at 10:15 p.m. with the Department of Corrections and the U.S. Marshals Service for more on these developments.

Breaking News - Mexican Wolf Esperanza's Candidate Statement
SPRINGERVILLE, AZ— An application to Arizona Governor Doug Ducey for a seat on the Arizona Game and Fish Commission was submitted today on behalf of the alpha female of the Panther Creek Pack of Mexican gray wolves. Named “Esperanza” (“hope” in Spanish) by school children when she was a pup, the applicant is a lifelong resident of Greenlee County and a fifth-generation Arizonan who avidly supports the right to hunt. The application was accompanied by testimonials from other wolves, including her offspring, and a letter of support from over a dozen conservation organizations long concerned about the commission’s anti-wolf record.
“Pro-wolf Arizonans have felt underrepresented by the current commission and their votes to limit Endangered Species Act protections for Mexican wolves,” said Greta Anderson, deputy director of Western Watersheds Project. “The Game and Fish Commission has consistently ignored the majority of Arizonans that want to see wolf populations recover and expand throughout the state.”
For the past two years Esperanza and her Panther Creek Pack fostered pups from captive wolves; the biological parents of the cross-fostered pups were not released with their offspring because of an Arizona Game and Fish Commission policy that has blocked adult releases. Esperanza raised these pups as her own and mentored them in subsistence survival, all the while knowing instinctively that her species’ survival depends on increased adult wolves being released from captivity.
The Game and Fish Commision has repeatedly approved the reintroductions of non-native species or species outside of their ranges for the sole purpose of sport hunting or fishing and yet, when it comes to a native, endangered species in Arizona that needs the available habitat in the Grand Canyon region to be recovered, they push for an arbitrary boundary that would allow no wolves north of Interstate 40, said Emily Renn, executive director of the Grand Canyon Wolf Recovery Project.
“Having gotten to know the forests and meadows of the Panther Creek Pack’s home territory, and having sat through Arizona Game and Fish Commission meetings more times than I wish, I’m reluctant to subject Esperanza to the commission’s ugly politics,” said Sandy Bahr, director of the Grand Canyon Chapter of the Sierra Club. “Unfortunately, the future of Esperanza and her pack as well as other endangered lobos will be significantly affected by the anti-wolf agenda of the commission, so we need someone on the panel to counter it and to represent the pro-wolf majority.”
Conservationists tout Esperanza’s qualifications including her work as a hunting guide, excelling in her business despite healthy competition, and her history of volunteering on management hunts to limit excessive elk herbivory on sensitive riparian vegetation in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest. She’s well informed about Arizona’s public lands and is passionate about game management issues.

Ambassador Wolf Atka Endorses Mexican Wolf Esperanza for Arizona Game and Fish Commission

STORYLINE:
The remaining residents of two eastern Arizona towns in the path of a massive wildfire have been ordered to evacuate.
The Apache County sheriff ordered everyone still in Springerville and Eagar to leave on Wednesday evening.
A massive plume of smoke dominated the skyline as the fire got closer.
About seven thousand people live in the towns and surrounding areas, although many already have left.
The order came as a spot fire made it past fire lines.
A fire spokesman said the flames are not in the towns.
The air in Eagar was hazy with smoke, however, making road conditions difficult.
About half of Eagar was ordered evacuated on Tuesday.
The 607-square-mile (977-square-kilometre) blaze has already made about 2,700 people flee mountain towns in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest.
Firefighters say they have zero containment of the fire in the White Mountains of eastern Arizona.
The blaze was sparked on May 29 by what authorities believe was an unattended campfire.
It became the second-largest in Arizona history on Tuesday.
Thousands of firefighters, including many from several western states and as far away as New York, are already helping.
With a blaze as large as this being driven by unpredictable and gusty winds, putting the fire out is a gargantuan task.
All fire managers can do is try to steer it away from homes and cabins by using natural terrain, burning out combustible material first and trying to put out spot fires sparked by embers blowing in front of the main fire front.
The cost of fighting the blaze has approached 8 (m) million US dollars.
Officials said it is likely to get more expensive.
