First up today in wildlife news, the wayward golden eagle that had a catastrophic collision with a big-rig seems to be mending well, though it will be 2-3 months before wildlife experts are certain she can be released into the wild. A naturalist from Pennsylvania discusses his job of protecting wildlife and educating people; followed by a commentator from Illinois who provides some detailed background material on skunks. An employee of a wild animal park in Oregon was mauled by a black bear; while a raccoon had a shocking encounter with some high-power lines in New York State. With 65% of the state suitable for cougar populations, Colorado residents are having more frequent encounters with the big cats. A Massachusetts farmer is a man on a mission, trying to kill members of a pack of 30 coyotes that killed his dog and continues picking off goats in his herd. An article from West Virginia discusses coyotes as an invasive species; and a Maryland county has already seen a quartet of rabid animals (one cat, three raccoons) since the first of the year. A clever chimp in a Swedish zoo demonstrated that primates do plan ahead. And finally: Skippy from hell, as a family in Australia survives a kangaroo rampaging through their house!
