The eaglet on CAM 3 that has yellow bumpers on is flying really well.

Connor, you were quoted in the story in today's Virginian-Pilot re: the bunny invasion in Virginia Beach's resort area. Loved seeing that!

Ha, I spoke to that reporter yesterday. I had no clue that was the focus of the article!

Great that Trivia Night had a large turnout. Looks like a fun evening.

Bunnies in VA Beach need to eat, humans need to adjust!

Couldn't agree more.

Yay trivia!

I think EVERYONE got the smallest mammal question wrong.

I now also have a beef with chickadees because my team got that one wrong and it cost us first place.

With this mysterious illness going around the country, they're telling us not to eat lettuce (or at least clean the outer layers ). Have you taken lettuce off the menu for the cubs or didn't they ever get it?

I don't think that was a regular item but it is for other animals -- fortunately I did see a nice big bag of homegrown greens in the kitchen that someone donated! It's hard to keep up with the Cyclospora info, but my take is that use caution with the enormous production places and always support local/homegrown. :)

Lol Big Bear!;)

And a belated thank you to our kind MegaMatch donor for our lunch yesterday. I loved the Indian food!!

Angelkitty

Wow! What a wonderful Caring for Bears update. I was laughing the whole time watching them!

Brenda in PA

Thank you for the Caring for Bears update. Nice that No Tag and Lavender have the GPS collars so that we can know that they have stayed within 3 miles of release site. Love that they spent several days with each other in May.

Deb in PA

7:30

Is there a new Caring for Bears update? Did I miss it?

Connor Gillespie, WCV

7:30

Yes, you should have received it this afternoon. Maybe check your spam folder?

Connor--It may not be in a spam folder. Someone may post that they received a Caring for Critters update or Inside Poop at 10am. It may not come through to me (not in spam box) until 8pm that day or 2am the next day. There is no explaining how technology will decide to work. I don't know what time you posted this Caring for Bears update but I think I got it pretty fast--at 4:28pm. Apparently Angelkitty got hers quickly as well.

DaveinMissouri

Did not get my update!:(

Maybe today!:)

Deb in PA

9:15

Mornin'! Connor, I still haven't received the Caring for Bears update. I checked my spam filter and it's not in there either. Darn.....

Alison, WCV

9:17

If you sponsor the Bears and still haven't received the Bear update sent out yesterday, please email our Advancement Associate, Caitlynn, at CMcFee@wildlifecenter.org to check if you sponsorship needs to be renewed!

Thank you for an important Inside Poop about the dangers of wildlife entrapment by man made objects.

Deb in PA

Lavender enjoying playtime with the Yellow Ducky! (WCV)

Thanks to Alison, Caitlynn, and Connor, I was finally able to read the Caring for Bears Sponsors update! Thanks all!

Love this issue of Inside Poop...oh that little opossum...so very cute! Breaks my heart that so many animals/birds get stuck in those sticky traps...they should be banned!

Connor Gillespie, WCV

2:43

Deb, I couldn't agree more about banning glue traps - and data from the Wildlife Center is helping make that happen! In 2024, our patient data was used to pass a ban on glue traps in Ojai, a city in California. We hope to see similar bans adopted here in Virginia soon. Or even better, a statewide ban!

Brenda in PA

2:50

Angelkitty I think you must have a direct line to WCV updates. My Caring for Bears came quickly yesterday afternoon but I am still waiting for Inside Poop. Will probably arrive this evening or overnight.

Angelkitty

2:53

Brenda in PA, I live in VA so maybe the Pony Express stops here first

Ursa

2:56

Where do we sign on to a glue trap ban in VA? I'm ready to get signatures! Thanks for a terrific Inside Poop Amanda, but then they are always terrific! And I adored the Caring for Bears Update. Double Lavender has captured my heart for sure!

Who has heard of Jimothy the Racoon?

ROKinCville

I just saw the video of him a few minutes ago. Seems to be doing well despite his deformity.

Angelkitty

3:07

Jimothy is a viral internet star!

Connor Gillespie, WCV

3:24

I suppose the better questions would have been, who hasn't heard of Jimothy

Connor Gillespie, WCV

3:24

The Washington Post did a story about Jimothy and interviewed Dr. Karra!

Great info on banning glue traps. Count me in the effort to do so!
