Calaveras Humane Society Asks Are You an Animal Crazy? |
Posted by: Andy_Johnson on 04/08/2014 12:48 PM

Calaveras County, CA ... Maybe you’re a cat or dog person, or a bird or horse person, or even an iguana or rat person. I think of myself as an “everything person.” This simply means that I love all animals (except spiders!). If you feel like I do, now is the perfect opportunity to get involved with the Calaveras Humane Society as a volunteer.At this time of year, the County Animal Shelter is full to overflowing with kittens and puppies as well as adult cat and dogs. They need your help desperately. Some of you may not be aware that the Calaveras Humane Society takes cats and kittens from the County Shelter and places them into foster care. Some are older cats who need socialization and some tiny babies even need bottle feeding. The Humane Society provides the food, litter and veterinary care so your cost is minimal. The only requirement is a love of all things feline and a little extra time and room in your life to do something worthwhile. Fostering the cats allows them to become more adoptable as they are then comfortable with human interaction and more loving to their owners...

O.A.R.S. Guides Lead Historic Rafting Descent On the Colorado River “Pulse Flow” |

ANGELS CAMP, CA ... A binational group of conservationists from the United States and Mexico, along with several O.A.R.S. river guides, joined together last week for a historic 22-mile rafting trip on the newly revived Colorado River at the U.S.-Mexico border.This “first descent” of sorts (by oar raft) was made possible by the recent Colorado River “pulse flow” experiment which has allowed approximately 100,000-acre-feet of water (less than 1 percent of the annual flow of the Colorado River) to flow south toward the Sea of Cortez for one of the first times in nearly 50 years. The effort to reconnect the river to the sea, an effort led by a coalition of environmental groups collectively known as Raise the River and made possible by the historic Minute 319 agreement between the U.S. and Mexico, was to recreate a mini spring flood in the river and delta region and restore the degraded and endangered Colorado River delta in Mexico. The "pulse" began on Sunday, March 23, 2014 when the gates of the Morelos Dam on the U.S.-Mexico border were lifted, allowing water that had typically been redirected for upstream water needs to once again flow into the final stretch of the Colorado River...
