M-44s are spring-loaded devices that blast cyanide into the mouth of any creature that bites or pulls them, writes Ted Williams.Now, thanks to the Trump administration, M-44s will litter 245 million acres of Bureau of Land Management lands. The problem, writes Williams, is that M-44s don’t just kill coyotes, foxes or feral dogs, they kill indiscriminately — from pet dogs to over 100 species of wildlife.Worse, there was no public involvement in the decision to bring M-44s back, and it’s unclear if sheep producers even want or need the cyanide bombs.

“Whenever life becomes too turbulent,” writes Utah writer Dennis Hinkamp, he likes to visit Robert Smithson’s most famous work of art—Spiral Jetty.Perhaps the world’s most widely known earthwork, it cost the artist less than $10,000 and took only six weeks to construct, thanks to rented heavy equipment and a hired crew.Smithson meant Spiral Jetty to erode, to evolve with time, and Hinkamp has watched this happen from its very beginning in 1970.
