Newspaper Page Text2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2017 Seaside school back to normal after cougar alert By R.J. MARX The Daily Astorian When neighbors reported a possible cougar in Seaside last week, Seaside Heights Elementary School responded by moving all student activi- ties inside. Pet owners at the nearby Creekside Village Apartments were advised to keep their pets safe and on leashes after several cats were reported missing. This week, the district is back to normal activities, based on advice from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, Principal John McAndrews said. “I also have not heard of any sightings since our last report.” he said today. The risk of danger to stu- dents at school was very low, Seaside School District Superintendent Sheila Roley said. “Cougars move through areas in a few days as they roam their territory,” she said. Cougars are part of our nat- ural environment, Roley added. “We respond to their presence as is appropriate whether it is a cougar or a herd of elk roaming the high school track.” In 2007, cougar sightings in the same area prompted warnings from ofﬁ cials and consultation with Fish and Wildlife. Representatives of the department came to Sea- side Heights Elementary School to meet with ofﬁ cials after reports of cougars in the area. “Seaside neighborhood put on cougar alert,” a head- line read at the time. A Seaside resident said she had been awakened by her two dogs and come upon a cougar outside her window eating breadcrumbs. After families were noti- ﬁ ed in the school letter, pre- cautions were taken to bring activities inside, a response similar to one taken last week in Seaside after neighbors feared a cougar had snatched missing pets. In May 2012, Warrenton Police and the Oregon Depart- ment of Fish and Wildlife received reports from citizens of sightings of a cougar near the 300 block of First Street. Warrenton Police Chief Mathew Workman said at the time there had been “three or four” sightings in the down- town area. OBITUARIES James C. Fluhrer Warrenton Nov. 10, 1932 — Oct. 30, 2017 An Oregon State Police sergeant in Astoria said at the time cougars had been seen at times near Fort Stevens, but sightings in town were rare. Clatsop County Sheriff Tom Bergin said at the time one of his staff spotted a cou- gar in her backyard. Department of Fish and Wildlife biologist Herman Biederbeck conﬁ rmed the reports of sightings, suggest- ing the cougar could have been a female with a cub. Three months later, police received reports of what appeared to be a cougar at Sixth Street and Irving Ave- nue in Astoria. Police were unable to ver- ify the sighting. Victoria Hayteas, who lives at Juniper Ridge in Warrenton, said Friday neighbors have seen cougars. The animals have been spotted “drink- ing from the pond behind the Main Street Market,” she said. “I know there are cougars here,” Hayteas said. “I won- der — do cougars whistle? What I’ve been woken up to is a whistle. … I know it’s not a bird. Do these crazy things whistle?” Jim was born in Clatskanie, Oregon, on ber, and past commander of the Veterans of For- Nov. 10, 1932, to Claude and Mary Fluhrer. Jim eign Wars Post No. 10580.
