Coyote Sightings Reported Across Fairfield In Recent Weeks

Replies(2) A coyote is seen Feb. 11 in a Fairfield backyard. (Frank Byrne) FAIRFIELD, CT A Fairfield resident recently captured a coyote on video out for a morning stroll through a backyard. In the recording, the animal howls a few times before walking briskly across the yard, which is near a wooded area. Fairfield resident Doreen Battimelli shared an image from the video, taken Feb. 11 near Towne House and Tanglewood roads, in a neighbor post on Patch, and then emailed Patch the footage. February and March are notorious for issues with coyote as I believe it is their mating season, Battimelli said in the post. Please protect your pets.

Reply It s mating season for coyotes and other wildlife in the area. Be aware and be on the look out for more activity and potential threats to your dogs and cats. (Shutterstock / Matt Knoth) ESSEX, CHESTER, DEEP RIVER, CT This time of year, here in Connecticut, many wild animals are searching for warm, dry nooks and crannies to build suitable dens and future homes in, as the breeding season for foxes, coyote, raccoons and squirrels is here. According to Chris Vann, a wildlife biologist with the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP), reinforcing the perimeter of your home, porches, crawl spaces, workshops, garages and sheds is one way to take down the welcome sign for unwanted wildlife guests. He also recommends checking your chimneys (and putting up chimney caps, if you don t already have one) and attic louver vents to make sure they are not damaged or open, giving carte blanch to woodland critters looking to become permanent house guests.

Salida Soup ladles $600 into KHEN Food Program

KHEN Community Radio’s “Pack the Backpack” program got a $600 boost during the virtual Salida Soup No. 61 Dec. 17.  Salida’s community radio station is providing a bag of nonperishable food to local kids experiencing food insecurity.  Packs are distributed Fridays at the KHEN studios, 123 E. Third St.  KHEN executive director Chris Vann advised that more than 37 percent of Coloradans are struggling to afford food during the pandemic, an increase of 26 percent from a year ago. Families and people of color have been hit the most, according to Vann.  “Reduced services at schools and the closure of school districts throughout Colorado has meant the loss of free and reduced-price school meals for more than 350,000 students,” Vann said. “Studies show lack of adequate nutrition in childhood can have long-term impacts on health and well-being long into adulthood.”
