Authorities investigating vandalism at Lake Champlain Bridge
The Lake Champlain Bridge was reduced to one lane Sunday, with state Department of Transportation workers directing traffic. Someone heaved the bridge’s manhole inspection covers into the lake overnight, said authorities, and police were checking for possible sabotage of the bridge’s systems.
How Corn Can Be a Killer
The old saw “killing them with kindness” was at play this week in the northeast. According to this press release issued by New Hampshire Department of Fish & Game, citizens in the town of South Hampton found six dead whitetails in a wooded, suburban lot on March 20. State biologists and a warden responded to the call and, after a brief search, discovered an additional half dozen dead deer. After examining the animals at a nearby veterinary lab, authorities confirmed that at least two of the whitetails were victims of enterotoxemia, a condition directly linked to feeding deer—primarily corn—in winter.
