TARGETING SENIORS - Cyber con artists using artificial intelligence, apps and social engineering are targeting parents and grandparents who are being scammed out of what now totals $10 billion dollars a year in America.

THE SPERM WHALES OF DOMINICA - The sperm whale, one of the largest animals in the sea, is at risk because of noise pollution, ship strikes and plastic trash. Cecilia Vega dives in off the coast of Dominica, where hundreds of sperm whales live year-round, to observe these mysterious mammals and understand the efforts to protect the vulnerable species. Michael Rey is the producer.
