Growing coyote threat to all and other sad news!!!
Beware of coyote packs!!!
When Mary-Margaret Burke wanted to take her dogs for a walk in Groveland, Mass., she never thought she would have that walk threatened by coyotes. However, that’s just what happened. Mary-Margaret was walking through a wooded area with her four Labradors and came upon a pack of coyotes. According to Burke, ” I could see their eye teeth, coming up out of their mouths. They were showing their teeth to us. They wanted to attack us.” Burke was ill prepared for this encounter and just came to a dead stop. Burke tried to walk deeper into the woods to get away from the coyotes. However, she became lost and disoriented and fortunately had her cell phone to call 911. Police were able to talk her out of the woods with the gps signal built into her phones. According to Burke, ther were about eight coyotes in this pack and she wonders what will happen to the next person or persons, especially a child who come across this pack of coyotes. According to police, the best thing to do in a situation such as this is to make a lot of noise to scare away the coyotes and then leave the area as soon as possible.
In a sad story, a thirteen year old mix breed dog had to be put to sleep this week, because a burglar who entered the home of the Minnich family in Lancaster, Pennsylvania beat the dog to the point where the dog’s hip bone was broken and bone fragments in the hip, made it impossible to fix. Carly, the dog had been acting strange and somewhat ill and was taken to the vet in the middle of the night. The vet determined that the dog had been beaten or kicked and that is what caused the severity of the injuries. The Minnichs were devastated and didn’t care at all about their possessions, because they could be replaced. However, Carly will never be able to be replaced and for that, they are all heartbroken.
