Summary

Why were live spiders, cockroaches and a funeral wreath sent to the home of a Massachusetts couple that published a newsletter about eBay? Sharyn Alfonsi reports. Bill Whitaker looks at a non-profit called American Prairie that wants a reserve on the American grasslands where bison could roam once again, and that the public can enjoy. However, some local ranchers aren’t convinced the organization is helping. Photographer James Nachtwey has made a career covering the world’s most violent conflicts. He tells Anderson Cooper why documenting acts of compassion in the darkest times makes him believe in humanity.
