Extractions: As we continue to develop open space, can we peacefully co-exist with wildlife? How can you handle calls from people asking for help with wildlife problems? If your shelter accepts wildlife, how can you make their stay more comfortable? Sharon St. Joan of Best Friends Animal Society and Laura Simon of The Fund for Animals will offer their tips and insights. Most of us who love animals also care a great deal about wildlife, but sometimes we feel at a loss as to what to do if we find an injured baby bird at the foot of a tree or a fawn who seems to be all alone. Is it okay to pick them up? Is that against the law? Is it good for the animals? Where does one take an injured owl or a duck with a broken wing? Who takes care of wildlife? If someone brings a baby bird to our shelter, do we need a permit to accept it? How do we care for it? How can we find a licensed wildlife rehabilitator? As well as the difficulties of knowing what best to do with orphaned or injured wildlife, there are so many other questions related to our encounters with wildlife. What can we do about "nuisance" wildlife? What can we suggest to our neighbors who feel threatened by wildlife who fear that the woodpecker may damage the house, the geese may ruin the lawn, the squirrels may eat the birdseed? In this week's forum, we invite any questions related to wildlife encounters. The world of wildlife can seem unfamiliar and a little mysterious; we feel on less sure footing than when we are relating to dogs and cats, with whom our species shares such a long, intertwined history.

Dog Owner's Guide: Leptospirosis entered suburban areas with populations of skunks, raccoons, opossums, deer, Connie Jankowski, et al/Hardcover/1997; ASPCA Complete Dog care Manual http://www.canismajor.com/dog/lepto.html
Extractions: [Dog Owner's Guide: Leptospirosis (www.canismajor.com/dog/lepto.html)] Home Topics Index Newest ... About Canine outbreaks of leptospirosis in several states are sparking discussion and controversy about vaccination practices for prevention of the disease and concern for transfer of the disease to humans. Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection cause by a family of organisms known as Leptospira interrogans. Until recently, vaccines were available for only two strains (Leptospirosis canicola and L. icterhaemorrhagiae), but vaccines for two additional types (L. grippotyphosa and L. pomona) are now on the market. Controversy arises because some dogs are allergic to the carrier in the lepto vaccine; as a result, some veterinarians no longer use the inoculant in areas where the disease is not a problem. Concern about side-effects are relatively new; clinical canine leptospirosis caused by L. canicola and L. icterhaemorrhagiae is rare in the US, a situation attributed to widespread administration of the vaccine. The new outbreaks are being caused by L. grippotyphosa, L. bratislava, and L. pomona, strains that are prevalent in some species of wildlife. The theory is that the disease has entered suburban areas with populations of skunks, raccoons, opossums, deer, and small rodents and that dogs become vectors of these strains through contact with the urine of these animals. Lepto can infect livestock as well, so cattle and hogs that wade or wallow in areas contaminated by the urine of carrier animals can also get the disease.
Care Sheet - Eastern Box Turtle Raccoons, skunks, hawks, opossums, dogs, cats and kids are all potential dangers Lastly, remember box turtle are life long pets. Eastern box turtles can http://www.austinsturtlepage.com/Care/cs-easternboxie.htm
Extractions: Eastern Box Turtle By Dawn SCIENTIFIC NAME Terrapene Carolina Carolina ADULT SIZE Upto 4" - 6" DIET Eastern box turtles are mostly omnivores as adults. Meaning they will eat both plant and animal matter. Hatchling and young box turtle are generally carnivorous, meaning they eat mostly live foods. TEMPERATURE RANGE (°F) Daytime Air Temperature: Basking Temperature: H umidity: HABITAT Wild Eastern box turtles are found mostly near the edge of forests. They can frequently be found along the edge of open meadows under shrubs or fallen logs. Moist leaf litter is a natural resting place. They are often seen soaking in shallow water. DISTRIBUTION Eastern box turtles range is typically from Michigan south to Tennessee, east to Georgia and north to Main. BEGINNER TURTLE Yes CAPTIVE HABITAT A captive habitat should have a substrate deep enough for the turtle to burrow in, water bowl large enough for the turtle to climb in and out of easily and turn around in. Hiding places at both ends of the enclosure to allow for thermoregulation. UVB lighting or access to natural sunlight is a must. Artificial heat must also be provided for a healthy, happy turtle. RECOMMENDED ENCLOSURE An outdoor enclosure is best for Eastern box turtles. Minimal size for one adult is 4 feet by 4 feet. Ideally it should receive morning sun and late afternoon sun when they are most active. Planting shrubs and plants should provide shaded areas. Hiding places are required. Hollowed out logs, plant pots turned on their sides or other materials can be used. Large water bowls can be created out of plant saucers. Misting the enclosure will boost the humidity. Turtles are excellent escape artists. You must dig down 6 inches below the bottom of the enclosure walls and provide a barrier. Chicken wire or bricks can be used to accomplish this. A screen top is essential to keep out predators. Raccoons, skunks, hawks, opossums, dogs, cats and kids are all potential dangers to turtles
Care Of Box Turtles Most of the box turtles kept as pets are collected in the United States, ants and predatory marauders, such as dogs, cats, rats, skunks and opossums. http://www.ahc.umn.edu/rar/MNAALAS/Boxtrt.html
Extractions: General Information Diseases Requiring Veterinary Attention Box turtles (genus Terrapene) are relatively small, land-dwelling reptiles with a unique, hinged shell design enabling them to completely withdraw their head and limbs and totally close their shell (like a closed box). This design affords total protection to their soft tissues when threatened by predators. Box turtles are very popular as pets in the United States. Most of the box turtles kept as pets are collected in the United States, but 4 species are also found in Mexico. The Eastern or Common Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina carolina) and the Three-Toed Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina triunguis) seem to be the hardiest in captive situations. The range of the box turtle varies from the open woodlands of the Eastern Box Turtle, the swampy environment of the Florida species (Terrapene carolina baun), the marshy habitat of the Gulf Coast Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina major), to the harsh desert environment of the Desert Box Turtle (Terrapene ornata luteola).
