The 4-year-old male coyote residing in a 266-square foot enclosure as part of the Cook County Forest Preserve s Ambassador Animal program at the River Trail Nature Center in Northbrook is scheduled to be moved to a space nearly 10 times as large, but that plan doesn t seem adequate to animal-rights activists who, instead, want him moved to a Colorado wildlife sanctuary.
The 4-year-old coyote residing in a 266-square-foot cage at the River Trail Nature Center in Northbrook is scheduled to be moved to a space nearly 10 times as large. The vet taking care of him says it s the best option, but animal welfare activists fight on.
The controversy started with a petition, calling for the coyote to be re-located to a wildlife sanctuary, so it could have more space to roam free and potentially live in a pack.
"Just because current laws are in place condoning this, things need to be changed. This is unacceptable. Absolutely heartbreaking," said a Northbrook resident.
Glenview residents outraged over plans to trap beavers in ponds

GLENVIEW, Ill. - Some residents in
Glenview are upset with a homeowner s association management group, after a notice was sent to residents that live in the Concord at the Glen neighborhood about plans to trap beavers.
The notice says ponds have recently become the habitat for beaver activity and that beavers have caused damage to the landscape and loss of trees. It goes on to say there would be trapping to remove them.
