| Food Storage Help to Prepare for Disaster
Many people seek food storage help to prepare in advance for a disaster or emergency. "Something bad is going to happen," says the head of the American Civil Defense Association.
Salt Lake City, UT, USA, February 16, 2007 (XTVWorld.Com) -- Food storage help is what many Americans now feel is important to them, because they want to be prepared for a disaster or emergency.
Disasters from extreme weather, emergencies caused by power outages and other problems, as well as the concern about terrorism have many Americans looking for food storage and emergency preparedness help and information. Their concerns are justified, based on the suffering that took place after recent weather-related problems all across the country.
The director of the American Civil Defense Association says every American needs to take action now to be prepared for an attack on this country.
Warning issued after coyote attack
The Chautauqua County Health Departments Division of Environmental Health Services is advising the public of safety issues concerning coyotes following a recent attack that killed two domestic dogs.
The incident occurred on the Fred J. Cusimano Westside Overland Trail in the area between Mayville and Sherman, when two labrador retrievers following their owner, who was cross country skiing, were attacked by a pack of five coyotes. Despite the owners efforts to scare the coyotes away, both dogs were killed.
We want to take the opportunity of this unfortunate event to inform the public of the following information and precautions to avoid a negative encounter with a coyote, said Mike Stow of the Environmental Health Services.
Coyotes can be found throughout New York state and have a difficult time finding food during this time of year.
