An activist art collective known as INDECLINE claimed responsibility for vandalizing a Las Vegas billboard to read "Shoot a school kid only $29." The billboard advertisement for Battlefield Vegas, a local shooting range, previously read "Shoot a .50 caliber only $29." The alterations, made on Thursday, also included the phrase “Defend lives, reform laws" at the bottom left corner of the board. In a statement, the group said the "protest piece" is a response to the country's "longstanding obsession with gun culture" and the government’s "inability to honor the victims of mass shootings by distancing themselves from the homicidal policies of the NRA." A spokesperson said the group has received criticism as well as support and donations. INDECLINE is also known for displaying life-size naked statues of President Donald Trump in in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and other U.S. cities. - USAT

Researchers uncovered a previously unknown supercolony of penguins in the Danger Islands. In all, more than 1.5 million penguins were counted. The survey revealed the third and fourth largest colonies of Adélie penguins in the world. Researchers conducted ground and computer automated counts using drone imagery of the islands off the Antarctic Peninsula. The drone flew close enough over the islands' surface for an algorithm to quickly tally each penguin individually. “As soon as we did the first run, it became very obvious that counting penguins this way was more efficient than anything else we’ve ever thought of,” said professor Hanumant Singh, who developed the drone’s navigation and imaging system. - NEWSWEEK
