Researchers have raised the alarm over the drastic drop in the population of gray whales off the West Coast of the United States. According to the researchers, the sudden drop in gray whales population by almost one-quarter since 2016 closely mimics similar die-offs close to 2 decades ago.
NOAA Fisheries reported in a paper released last Tuesday that surveys counted at least 6,000 fewer migrating gray whales last winter, i.e. 21,000 compared with up to 27,000 in 2016.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Indiana State Police said Thursday a tip sparked an investigation that ended with five arrests on charges of child solicitation.
In a release, state police said a concerned citizen in Lawrence County reported in early December that multiple adult males had allegedly solicited an individual, who they believed to be a 15-year-old girl, to commit sexual acts.
An investigation in four counties was launched, which included search warrants and analysis of electronic communication. After prosecutors reviewed the case, police say arrest warrants were obtained and served Thursday evening on five men for child solicitation, a Level 4 felony.
