Angel Island Fire
Oct. 15th, 2008 06:05 pmI'm relieved to hear that the Calif. Wildlife Rehab Center in Marin reports that http://www.wildcarebayarea.org/site/PageServer
According to Ruth Coleman, Director of State Parks, no dead animals have been found. Fortunately no ground-nesting birds are raising young at this time of year, and because it is October, not baby season, all of the animals living on the island should be mobile and able to get out of the fire's way. There is at least one reported sighting of a deer and juvenile fawn swimming from the island to Belvedere. Apparently these animals made it across Raccoon Straits to safety.
