In our first wildlife story today, a wildlife rehabilitation center that was overrun by wildfires during Santa Barbara's Jesusita Fire is trying to recover. There were a host of deer-related accident stories in the news today: a deer was struck and killed by a motorist in Southern California; a young motorist in Tennessee was injured after trying avoid a deer in the road; a deer that had reached Boston's city hall was struck and killed by traffic; and, adding insult to injury, a Utica, NY, woman was ticketed following an accident that resulted from swerving to avoid deer in the road. With Queensland's red deer population surging to over 30,000, culling of the Australian deer herds looks to be imminent; but a Wichita, Kansas, family had an unexpected guest at their Memorial Day barbeque! A Wyoming rancher saved his dog's life by sucking rattlesnake venom out of its nose. Residents of Busselton, Western Australia, were given some background info on the local possum population. In another success story, Maine's governor has delisted bald eagles as their population rebounds in that state; but raptors elsewhere in the US are facing a threat from an unexpected quarter: landfill gas plumes! An update on wolves in Washington state is provided in the next article. Coyotes in Newport Beach, California, are raising pet owners' fears in the area. A New Jersey resident discovered a small bandit living on the premises. A girl in Ohio needed medical attention after being attacked by a cougar. A Pennsylvania motorcyclist needed hospital care after running into a bear. And finally, even after being dead for 16,000 years, a bear was not immune to poaching!
