Leading off wildlife news today, an uninhabited island in the Galapagos Islands chain has erupted, spurring fears that it could affect wildlife on populated islands. After wildlife was suspected as an E. coli vector (and many animals were killed off by farmers as a result), California Department of Fish & Game is casting doubt on the veracity of that assumption. Residents of an Ontario, Canada, town were given a briefing on coyotes; and the Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center is providing some public education on the lifestyles of various canines in the wild. A trio of young black bears was released back into the wild in Wisconsin; but Montana residents are curious as to the whereabouts of grizzlies in their neck of the woods. An Australian man took an ill-advised nighttime swim in crocodile-infested waters with predictable results. An article from North Carolina provides a list of deer-resistant vegetation, now that spring is here and the deer are munching; followed by one along the same lines by a Florida horticulturalist. Sharpshooters in a Virginia community are starting their deer thinning program, with the resultant venison detailed for needy families in the area; while a Wisconsin hunter brought home a legendary rack of antlers without firing a shot! A California resident takes exception with treating a cougar as the aggressor, as portrayed in a newspaper article; and residents of a South Dakota community had a feline visitor pass through this week. An elusive cougar remains in the news in Wisconsin; while residents of Selma, Alabama, are working with a wildlife organization to puzzle out what is killing dogs in their area. Tennessee wildlife authorities are seeking the perps who carved up a bald eagle. And finally, the BBC shows one man's solution to London's perpetual pigeon problem. Happy Easter, everybody!
