This one's a little different. Find the Elements from the Periodic Table in the following story. The names may reach across punctuation. Unless I put some in without realizing it, there should be 10.

I was walking through the woods one day with my girlfriend, Kelly. There were many trees all around. There was a fir on the left, and a pine on the right. I also saw much wildlife. I noticed a fox going east, and a bear go north. I saw something I didn't recognize, but in some ways it reminded me of that character from Lord of the Rings, Smeagol (did that guy creep me out or what?). As I walked on, I spied a bull with a weird scar. Bonus!!! Unusual animals have always interested me. My next spotting was a chocolate lab or only a dog in other words. After a picnic, Kelly and I headed home. There's not much pizzazz in coming to the woods, but it was fun. This is a true tale, adding nothing.

How come stories like this never contain gadolinium or yttrium?

I thought about marking both, but went with the first one I found since I'm pretty sure Cal isn't handing out extra credt.

The one completely contained within the word was unintentional. I thought that was the hardest one to find because it wasn't contained within any odd combination of words.
