As if drought in the Western part of the country wasn't enough, Colorado farmers are also up against sawflies, pesky insects with a knack for obliterating crops. Farmers are trying to stay ahead of the curve and tamp down the impact of these bugs. KUNC's Rae Soloman reports. And, as students return to Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas — the site of a deadly massacre in May where a gunman killed 19 students and two teachers — they'll find a nice surprise. Stuffed animals adorn the desk of each child inside the school during the shooting, provided by 18-year-old Ella Klimowcz who also survived a school shooting at her Michigan school last November. Ella and her mother, Carrie Klimowcz, join us.
