Can't believe this is in the news again. There were recalls, tests, etc, etc. It's a thing. My impression is that it it is so rare, that it's not much of a concern, but I haven't been following for a few years now.
Since none of the fear mongers shared any info, I looked it up and according to: https://pets.webmd.com/dogs/why-dogs-cant-eat-grapes
"...an amount as low as 0.3 ounces of grapes per pound of body weight could also cause various symptoms of food toxicity."
So, for a 50 lb dog, it would need to...
It's a start. Real advocacy still requires in-person contact with the legislators. Things move fast and by the time there is a public release of information (amendments to a bill, for example), the issue can be drastically different from the previous public release. At least, that's been my...
I got the impression he was a little perturbed from the rail/crows/prairie dog discussion. Can't say I blame him. The commissioners (even May, who seems to have a genuine concern) did not seem to have read the staff's letter - black rail don't flush so will not be mistakenly killed, CO is not...
The new Keep Colorado Wild (KCW) state parks pass puts $2.5M (assuming a certain number are sold) towards CSAR: https://cpw.state.co.us/aboutus/pages/keep-colorado-wild-pass.aspx

Seems like there was a lot of confusion and so May's indignation at the public comment "surprised the Commission has time for this" was misplaced. They really don't have time for it and didn't do their homework (because they are swamped with wolf meetings and allocations and...).
It was a...
I think it is very human to have mental/emotional problems killing people who will never be able to fight back.
We just have to make it like Enders Game - make our remote controllers think they are playing a game.
Considering that a large percentage of not-too-distant future conflicts will be fought remotely with drones, robots, etc., worrying about what small arms space force operators will have in basic training is a little myopic. We will still need a few grunts, but we will need a heck of lot more...
We use Simparica Trio Chewable Tablets for Dogs (once a month) prescription. If we find ticks on her shortly after she is running in grass, they are still alive. A few hours after she has been running in the grass, the ticks are dead.
How many times would you spend hours of your free time to prepare arguments for a discussion that you know are going to be ignored? Then go to a meeting where you are going to be ignored. And then have everyone who was not at the meeting ask how you could let this happen? If the collaborative...
