Wild Animal Reports On Rise

There have been reports of an increase of wildlife in Coweta County and pets miss­ing from yards in our sub­di­vi­sion.  Our com­mu­nity is sur­rounded by wood­lands and is an ideal breed­ing area for coy­otes, foxes, rac­coons, rat­tlesnakes, opos­sums, etc. and these ani­mals are look­ing for easy prey to feed their young.  As pub­lished Thursday,  June 17, 2010 Newnan Times Herald by Elizabeth Richardson “It is nor­mal this time of year for foxes and coy­otes to be out in the day” said city’s ani­mal con­trol offi­cer, Cyndi Hoffman.  “These ani­mals are hav­ing lit­ters now that they are try­ing to feed, so they are hunt­ing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week”.   You can read the entire arti­cle at www.times-herald.com.
