There's a stray dog problem in San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico. But there are animal rights activists in Mexico that will hopefully take notice and try to establish some kind of long-term and humane solution. There are about 70,000 stray dogs roaming San Luis Rio Colorado in northern Mexico. The solution? Sarcasm there of course.

I won't try to grab them, but I look out for them and chase the stray cats away. The birds know my voice and this one beat up looking squirrel actually comes right up to me. My yard is always so full of animals paying me a visit, that it's become a Disney princess satire. I'm a modern druid or Artemis lol.

I doubt caring for strays in Belarus is an easy task , so kudos to these people for the work they do. They also put up a tent to collect donations, such as pet food, cages, collars and other pet supplies, for stray and abandoned animals kept at the shelters. Tags: belarus animal rights.

Back in the old place, there were more birds in the nearby coffee farm but it wasn’t easy to bird because I couldn’t see it from my door and there were stray dogs. Right at home. My recent move may have been a few kilometers away but it is lower, warmer, and it came with a few differences.

As far as right now, the first report of a Calliope Hummingbird from the local bird mailing list came in on April 22. When I was young, it was the only western hummer to routinely stray east in the winter months. But my mom sees hummingbirds at her feeder constantly, and here my feeder sits, all forlorn. It breeds into Alaska.

When adopting a rescue there are added considerations on selecting the right dog for your lifestyle. Right at the top of the list is the awareness that your new rescue has a shady history, especially if it was a stray. 5) Was the dog a stray or an owner drop off?

There were grumpy old fishermen, fishing through the closed season when the fish enter the backwaters to spawn, but also carrying handguns on their belts and assuming that, being armed and dangerous, they have every right to the area.

Plus, the horrible pictures I've seen of strays in Puerto Rico. That didn't make it right.

It really depends on where the strays and vagrants show up in the second half of the year. But even after all that, you’d still be nearly 25 species shy of the record, and the difference has to come from chasing strays and vagrants when and where they show up. Do you plan to make runs at Spruce Grouse and Gray Partridge ?

Must be a joke, right? The good news is that these two species have a pretty big range, occur outside of Costa Rica, and could be reintroduced given the right conditions (like reforesting more of the Caribbean slope and restoring more wetlands).

I’ve never seen a Northern Hawk Owl ( Surnia ulula ) – and I think it’s been several years since one last strayed into New York – but I do know that in winter excursions south, they often favor open farm country and sitting atop prominent perches, from which they give their hard, disapproving stare to all passersby.
