A Southern California community is debating whether new housing developments are interfering with wildlife travel, in our first wildlife story today. Detailed information comes to us from Colorado in regards to coyote biology, feeding, and hazing; and a warning went out to pet-owners in one Washington community about coyotes snatching pets in the area this week. A pair of North Dakota men are in trouble with the law for dealing in bald eagle parts. Some important tips on avoiding deer collisions with cars on the road is provided by Allstate Insurance in California; while a lottery is being held in Ohio for hunters who wish to help cull the whitetail deer herds within that state. A preserve for some of India's hog deer is being established in one of their national parks; but researchers are conducting a study to determine how much damage whitetail deer are doing to the ecosystem in Illinois. Law enforcement officers, citing safety concerns, were forced to shoot and kill a black bear at a park in Wisconsin; while a young bear, possibly the offspring of an adult captured in the same Pennsylvania neighborhood earlier this month, was caught wandering through a yard. Bears at an Alaska visitor's center are providing a show for tourists, something which officials wish to discourage; followed by an Op-Ed from New Jersey that offers some suggestions on deterring bears intent on dumpster diving for dinner. A bear has been spotted in Durham, North Carolina, repeatedly over the past couple of days; and Virginians are being advised about not feeding any of the 12,000 bears that frequent that state. Followup on an article from Tennessee this week about an aggressive black bear is provided by the next article. Wildlife biologists are encouraged by the discovery of ten lynx kittens in Colorado, a state that has had to import lynx to repopulate the area; and an article from British Columbia, Canada, provides some background material on cougars, following the attack on a local toddler. A pair of articles from Payson, Arizona, highlight wildlife in the area; but a public safety warning about rabid wildlife was issued to residents of a Florida community. And finally, last week it was raccoons in a Pepsi machine, this week: a baby possum!
