Dog control to be enforced Larry Crabb, a Multnomah County field tactical animal control officer, spent two days in Warm Springs re cently qualifying law enforcement, Fish and Game and Natural Resources personnel on the use of the newly purchased tranquilizer weapons. The Police department purchased two tranquilizer weapons at $600 (a hand gun and a rifle) that will be used for dog control purposes in Warm Springs. Beginning in July, all 17 trained personnel will be enforcing the dog control policy by using the tranquil izing weapons to capture dogs that are running loose or dogs that have been abandoned. "The tranquilizer dose will take about ten to fifteen minutes to take effect on the animal," says Sergeant of police Dave Allison. "We're working with veterinarians to find out quicker methods that are less than lethal but quicker to tranquilizeing them. Afterthe animals are captured, they will be relocated either to the humane society or to families that will care for them. After the animals are relocated, it will be the new owner's responsibility to pay license fees for their new pet. All unlicensed dogs, dogs that are both ering livestock or wild game will be destroyed on site," says Allison. By calling 553-1171, community members can request an officer to tranquilize or remove an unwanted animal from their property.

Essays 1st place Raylene Alana Ike Thomas We Need to Keep our Rivers Clean Because It's what keeps your body full of energy. And keeps you alive for a long time. But if people keep putting garbage and raw food in there it will be spreading in the river then it won't be good for the living crea tures in the river. Then they will die and people won't like that. And the water won't taste good like it's sup posed to because people keep putting that garbage in the rivers. And thats not how you take care of our rivers. We need water and water needs care. So don't put garbage in the rivers. And maybe we will stay healthy for the rest of our lives 2nd place Troy Kalama A bear needs food, water, and so they can live in a healthy environ ment. Sodoesachildinordertohave healthy water we should keep gases, oils, and other poisons out of the water. If you dump oil on the ground the rain could wash it down to the creek. We need to help trees and bushes grow along the river bank so the creeks and rivers stay cold. A bear and a child need fresh clean water, keep the environment clean like you keep your room clean. Do not poach, only kill what you need so animals can have homes. Keep our earth clean. 3rd place Robert Thomas, Jr We need to keep our forest green. It would be nice to put more garbage cans out in the forest. There should be more look out towers. Some ani mal care. Two are more water scien tist and peole that clean the water. So please don't throw trash on the forest floor. Do not cut down trees and leave them there. If you cut down a tree plant another one there. Do not leave a camp fire alone or you can start a forest fire. Please don't poi son the river. Don't run over little trees with cars or we will not have a forest to camp in or go hunting in or a place to get lumber to build a house to live in or we will not have a nice warm fire to go home to. So get what you need, but don't wast things na ture gives us. 4th place Heather Johnson A tree and a child both need a healthy environment because a tree is as important as a child because it gives us air and a child needs air to live. But if peole keep littering the tees would start dieing and the air won' t be clean and the children would start becoming sick and might die. And there might not be much of and environment left. Besides trees have to have food and so does a child. A tree needs water a child needs water too. They need a lot of the same things, but in different life styles. We need to keep a healthey environ ment. This is how you can keep our environment clean don't liner don't throw gas in rivers lakes etc. don't dump litter and leave it because ani mals could get stuck in it and die The End . . . t . . . . . t j.
