Bojangles brings back 2 fan favorites for a limited time. When can you get them?
Bo's Bird Dog and peach cobbler are back for a limited time at participating Bojangles restaurants nationwide, the Charlotte-based chicken chain said July 1.
A spin on a summer classic, the Bird Dog first hit menus in 2024 and features a fried chicken finger inside a toasted potato bun, Bojangles said. It's then topped with two pickles and a tangy Carolina Gold barbecue sauce.
The 'grab-and-go' snack is available in single and two-pack servings. Customers can also order it as a combo, or in six- or 12-pack catering options, the restaurant said.
Pricing information wasn't immediately available.
Customers looking to satisfy their sweet tooth can try the peach cobbler, made with a Bojangles' 'from-scratch' biscuits layered with a peach filling, icing and cinnamon sugar, a product description says.
The chain previously offered a strawberry version as part of its seasonal cobbler lineup, McClatchy News reported.
Bo's Bird Dog and peach cobbler are available to order in-store and on the Bojangles app for a limited time, though the restaurant didn't say for how long.

Taylor Swift's Red Garnet Ring Is on Sale at Mejuri
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. It's not often that a jewelry brand is editor-approved, celebrity-worn, and reasonably affordable, but Toronto-based label Mejuri checks all those boxes. From budget-friendly everyday staples to investment-worthy fine jewelry, the minimalist brand truly offers something for every occasion and budget—which is precisely why I've been wearing (and gifting) Mejuri jewelry for over five years now. Learning that A-listers like Taylor Swift, Meghan Markle, Selena Gomez, and Sydney Sweeney are fellow fans only further cemented Mejuri as one of the best jewelry brands in my rotation. 'As a self-proclaimed jewelry fanatic, I've found Mejuri to be a great place to start your jewelry collection,' says Dale Arden Chong, ELLE senior fashion commerce editor. 'The pieces feel modern yet timeless, ranging from dainty to chunky. And when you're ready, you can start investing in the brand's beautiful fine pieces.' Chong says she's been wearing the same Mejuri initial necklace for years and that it still earns her regular compliments. I can say the same for my beloved Mejuri pearl hoops, which Oprah just so happens to wear, too. The best part? The brand is currently in the midst of its Summer Sale, which runs until August 17—and the entire site is up to 25 percent off when you spend $150, including celeb-approved options. From Olivia Rodrigo's classic red carpet hoops to Taylor Swift's Travis Kelce-coded ring, I tracked down the exact Mejuri pieces worn by celebrities so you, too, can feel like a VIP. Mejuri's Garnet Heirloom Ring makes the ultimate gift for a Swiftie (even if said Swiftie is yourself). Taylor Swift was seen wearing it to celebrate the Chief's AFC Championship win with her boyfriend Travis Kelce. Crafted from solid 14k gold and a genuine garnet stone, the timeless design is an instant keepsake. Sydney Sweeney wore Mejuri's bestselling Dôme Hoops during a press event for the film Anyone But You– and it's certainly not the only time she's been seen wearing the $88 gold hoops. Handcrafted in 18k gold vermeil or sterling silver, they'll instantly liven up your look yet are lightweight enough for long periods of wear. The magic of Mejuri's affordable pieces is that they can easily be paired with higher-end styles. Case in point: Markle wore the brand's under-$100 chunky huggies and Charlotte Bold Ring with a gold Cartier Love bracelet to Variety's Power of Women Awards last year. 'I love how they are simple enough to go with everything but edgy enough to make a statement,' writes one reviewer. 'They close with a good click that feels very secure, and they don't weigh my ears down.' Mejuri practically wrote the book on quiet luxury jewelry. Its reasonably-priced, solid gold hoops are versatile enough to suit laidback, everyday outfits or red carpet ensembles à la Olivia Rodrigo. The same can be said for the brand's solid gold studs and growing selection of both natural and lab-grown diamond earrings. At a Paris Fashion Week event last year, supermodel Gigi Hadid complemented her lacy Miu Miu dress with Mejuri's Bold Pearl Drop Earrings. As one reviewer aptly describes them: 'They're not too old-fashioned-y but still very classic.' When it comes to fine jewelry, timeless pieces are the brand's specialty. Take, for instance, Quinta Brunson's Diamond Riviere Bracelet, which features 176 natural diamonds bezel-set in solid 14k gold. The Abbott Elementary star also wore the brand's Patra Pavé Diamond Ring, Patra Chunky Ring, and Bold Pearl Drop Earrings to the same event. Mejuri confirmed on Instagram that Scarlett Johansson wore its sleek mixed metal Stevie Hoops during a recent Tonight Show appearance. The adaptable style can be worn with or without the secondary hoop, so you're essentially scoring two pairs of earrings in one. Even Oprah can't resist the charm of Mejuri's affordable hoop earrings. In a photo posted to her Instagram, she wears the brand's sophisticated Organic Pearl Hoops—a style I'm also known to frequent. Minimalist but far from boring, each slim 18k gold vermeil hoop features a handpicked freshwater pearl. The curved, classic designs of Mejuri's Dôme collection are favorites of celebrity stylists and fashion editors alike. From Anna Sophia Robb's Mega Dôme Earrings to a stackable diamond pavé ring, these wearable works of art make top-tier jewelry gifts.

Dire wolf meet-up: Watch Colossal's female wolf frolic with older brothers
Colossal Biosciences created three dire wolves using genetic engineering. Now that the wolves have gotten older – the two males are approaching one year old – they are being assimilated into a pack. Those cute dire wolves are forming a pack. If you remember, Colossal Biosciences, the company seeking to bring back the woolly mammoth, revealed in April 2025 it had successfully birthed a trio of dire wolf puppies. Using dire wolf DNA extracted from fossils – yes, dire wolves aren't just the stuff of "Game of Thrones" fiction, they existed tens of thousands of years ago – the Colossal researchers created dire wolf genomes. They used those as a guide to editing a gray wolf genome to express dire wolf traits. The resultant fertilized dire wolf eggs were implanted into and born by surrogate dog mothers, resulting in the successful resurrection of an Ice Age-era species. Two male dire wolves, Romulus and Remus, born in October 2024, are approaching their first birthday – each weighed more than 90 pounds at six months old, significantly larger than standard gray wolves, the Dallas, Texas-based biotech company says – while a female, Khaleesi (named after the "Game of Thrones" character), is about six months old. Home delivery: A meteorite crashes into a Georgia home. Turns out it's older than Earth. 'She's completely been accepted into the pack': All in the dire wolf family Recently, the Colossal team thought it was time to introduce the brothers to their sister. "We're working through the socialization and the introduction of Khaleesi into the pack," Colossal CEO and co-founder Ben Lamm told USA TODAY. "They're starting to behave more and more like wolves," he said. "We don't want them to be lap dogs." You can see Khaleesi come into a grassy, fenced six-acre section of Colossal's 2,000-acre ecological preserve where she first gets to meet Romulus, in a video posted Aug. 12 on Colossal's YouTube channel. "At first, she was a little like, 'Whoa, he's right there," said Paige McNickle, manager of animal husbandry at Colossal and manager of the team that takes care of the dire wolves. The older male wolf, Romulus, came up to Khaleesi, and they smelled each other and then she took off on a run and he followed her. "They were playing with each other. Their ears were up the entire time, which is a good, happy, calm, wolf behavior that we were hoping to see," McNickle said. After a bit, Romulus is ushered away and Remus is brought into the area. "They were both excited. Everybody was so good in play, but Remus is almost more gentle than Romulus," McNickle said. "Romulus is just a little bit bigger, and Remus did really good. We saw lots of play behaviors," she said. "They kept their ears up, they wagged their tails. They followed each other around. They all got to explore the pool together. When they got hot, they went right over and cooled themselves off, especially Khaleesi." The trio then got to play together, although in coming days, she will get extended time with one brother on one day and another on the next day, McNickle said. The play area has a collection of logs, which Khaleesi is small enough to fit under, where she occasionally played hide and seek from her larger brothers. "We want to make sure that … (when) they're playing, they can separate, they can socialize, they can smell each other, but then, you know, if Khaleesi wants to get away – or Romulus or Remus want to get away – we need to make sure that we give them that comfort so they don't feel overwhelmed or feel pressured," Lamm said. "But the great news about it is she's completely been accepted into the pack." Leader of the dire wolf pack That pack will likely be growing. Colossal is planning to engineer two to four more dire wolves over the next year, Lamm said. Rather than let these wolves breed, the researchers want future pups from "a couple different cell lines," he said. "We will actually get more genetic diversity." And wolves of different ages, as they are adopted in the pack, will grow up "in some kind of social hierarchy." As of now, Remus, the smaller of the male wolves, appears to be emerging as the leader, having exhibited Alpha male characteristics. When the dire wolves were first introduced to the world, Remus "kind of became the star," Lamm said. "Remus really has this take-charge attitude. … Romulus has always been bigger and I just thought, natural selection, the biggest and strongest." Recently, Romulus and Remus began receiving larger carcasses for feeding – from rabbits to deer legs and cattle portions, beyond their regular menu of ground meat, meat chunks, and other foods – so they would learn important social skills. Colossal is currently working with Grizzly Systems and Yellowstone National Park's Wolf Project, deploying audiovisual recording devices to understand pack behavior and wolf populations. Artificial intelligence software helps identify "specific wolves in that setting and then begin to understand how we can estimate population size based on how many times we count the same wolf," said Matt James, Colossal's chief animal officer, in another video on the company's YouTube channel. Those devices will eventually be deployed in Colossal's reserve to monitor its growing dire wolf pack. Those tools will make it "so that we can just be observing them in a more passive manner," Lamm said. "This is just the next chapter in their story." Colossal continues other projects amid dire wolf controversy Critics have argued that the pups are not truly dire wolves, but genetically-modified gray wolves. Colossal has countered that their dire wolves share 99.5% of the same genetics as the original dire wolf. Some have also scolded Colossal for tinkering with genetics, but the tech firm insists its work will aid in the conservation and protection of endangered species. Recently, Colossal announced plans to resurrect the long-extinct New Zealand bird species, the moa, at the urging of filmmaker Peter Jackson, who is an investor in Colossal. Colossal first gained attention with its 2021 announced goal of bringing back the woolly mammoth. Earlier this year, the company unveiled its Colossal Woolly Mouse, which was genetically engineered to have characteristics that could eventually be used in creating a next-generation woolly mammoth embryo to be born by a female elephant. In August 2022, the company said it also planned to de-extinct the Australian thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger. Another project: the return of the dodo, which was killed off about 350 years ago.
