Not all super heroes are faster than a speeding bullet, or able to scale skyscrapers using a super spider web. They don’t all exhibit extra sensory strengths. They don’t all cruise in a sleek, sophisticated bat mobile and they sure don’t have to worry about spontaneously turning green with enlarged muscles at the first sight of trouble. Everyday heroes are ordinary people. Your neighbor, co-worker, friend. They are dedicated, dependable, determined. They are regular folks who devote their lifet...

Every spring FWP biologists, wardens and other field personnel begin to hear stories of how an "abandoned" newborn wild animal was "rescued." Unfortunately, in most cases this means the rescuer separated the young animal from a nearby parent. "If you care, leave them there," is FWP's annual advice this time of year. The hope is to spare newborn wildlife the sad fate of being separated from the only parent capable of teaching it to live free in the wild. Please do not photograph, move or attempt to feed newborn wildlife. Always keep dogs on...
