Safety first when driving with pets in the car
Many people can recognize the familiar image
of a car traveling down the road with the
head of a seemingly happy dog hanging out
from the front passenger seat. Traveling in such
a way may seem harmless, but doing so can be
detrimental to both pets and their owners.
According to Paws to Click, a community
that aims to inspire pet owners to travel responsibly
with their pets, allowing pets to travel in
cars without employing a harness poses a significant
threat to everyone in the car. The group
notes that an unrestrained 75 lb. dog will exert
about 2,250 lbs. of force in a crash in which the
car is traveling at just 30 miles per hour. Such
force can injure others in the car as well as the
pet. In addition, unrestrained pets may challenge
first responders in an effort to protect
their owners after an accident has taken place.
It makes all the sense in the world to harness
pets when taking them along in the car. After
all, drivers and their passengers wear seat
belts, so why not provide the same safety net
to pets? But Paws to Click notes that 84 percent
of dog owners drive with their dogs in
the car without using restraints. This despite
the fact that American Veterinary Medical
Foundation advises all pet owners to properly
restrain their pets before departing on
a car trip, no matter how short or how long
that trip is expected to be.
In addition to properly restraining pets on car
trips, pet owners can take these steps to ensure
their pets are safe.
• Don’t take pets along on car trips unless it’s
absolutely necessary. It can be fun to take a pet
with you everywhere, but the AVMF advises
pet owners to leave their pets home when possible.
Pets that are not suffering from separation
anxiety will be fine at home without their owners.
Pet owners whose pets are exhibiting signs
of anxiety should address the anxiety so pets are
comfortable at home alone. Taking pets everywhere
is not a cure for separation anxiety.
• Do not leave pets unattended in cars. A study
from the Louisiana Office of Public Health
found that temperatures in a dark sedan or a
light gray minivan parked on a hot, but cloudy
day reached higher than 125° F in just 20 minutes.
The study also found that cracking the
window in such situations had little effect on
the temperature inside the vehicle. On hot
days, leave pets at home. Owners who must
take their pets with them should never leave
them in the car, as temperatures inside vehicles
rise quickly, putting pets’ health in jeopardy.
Many pet owners are tempted to take their
pets with them on car trips. But that should
only be done when absolutely necessary, and
safety must be the utmost priority when traveling
with pets in a car.
Did you know?
The open road is maintaining its allure for vacationing families.
According to AAA Travel, which conducted a survey of
1,005 adults living in the continental United States, 64 percent
of families who planned to vacation in 2018 were intending to
travel by car to reach their destinations. While the open road
beckons, familiar roads might not be as alluring to families as
the roads less traveled. AAA found that 73 percent of families
planning vacations in 2018 were hoping to visit a destination
they had not previously visited. Rest and relaxation also ranked
high on the list of things families wanted out of their vacations.
Among families planning getaways in 2018, 61 percent indicated
they were choosing destinations with attractions such
as beaches and mountains, while 56 percent admitted finding
a destination that promoted relaxation was important to them.

Think Twice before Taking a Native Turtle Home
Each year, Steve Parren, wildlife biologist
with the Vermont Fish and Wildlife
Department, gets contacted about pet turtles
people no longer want. Some turtles grow
too large. Others require more complicated
care than owners realize--turtles kept indoors
require full-spectrum lighting for healthy
shell development. And with lives that can
last 50 years or longer, turtles often outstay
their welcome. Not only is it illegal to keep
native turtles as pets in Vermont, releasing
captive native turtles into the wild could
introduce diseases to, or mix up the genetics
of, local turtle populations. Often, releasing a
pet turtle is not a safe option, so a facility
must be found to take in the turtle.
“In the past, I or someone from the
Department, have tried to find appropriate
homes for unwanted turtles,” says Parren,
who heads up the wildlife diversity program
and has worked with turtles for 35 years. “If
the turtle is legal in the pet trade some pet
stores or individuals will take them, but not
all. A reptile welfare facility in New
Hampshire that could legally re-home native
species no longer takes some species and
they aren’t alone.”
Parren notes many facilities have too many
of some species and aren’t accepting common
ones anymore. This could result in
unwanted pet turtles being put down. While
a drastic option, it’s better than risking a disease
outbreak that could affect many wild
animals.
Deadline for Antlerless Deer Applications is Aug. 14
The deadline to apply for an antlerless deer
permit to be used during Vermont’s December
7-15 muzzleloader deer hunting season is
Wednesday, August 14.
Paper antlerless permit applications are not
available this year. You can apply online at the
Vermont Fish & Wildlife’s website www.vtfishandwildlife.com),
or license agents across
the state that sell hunting and fishing licenses
can process your application for you.
Landowners who do not have a
Conservation ID number will need to create a
profile through the online license sales system
to apply for a landowner application even if
they do not intend to purchase a hunting
• • •
Taking less-common species home is an
even worse idea.
“Removing even a few adults each year can
send a local turtle population into decline,”
says Parren. “So please, enjoy Vermont’s
native turtles in the wild. Help move one off
the road safely in the direction it’s traveling.
Take a photo with a phone.”
Make a report to the Vermont Reptile and
Amphibian Atlas https://www.vtherpatlas.

turtles, see www.vtfishandwildlife.com.
license. Landowners who post their land may
not apply for a muzzleloader landowner antlerless
deer permit.
“The winter of 2019 was severe in central
and northeastern Vermont, causing the permit
allocation to be 51 percent less in those
areas than in 2018,” said Nick Fortin, deer
project leader for the Fish & Wildlife
Department. “Elsewhere, the permit allocation
is similar to 2018 as little change is expected
in the deer population in those areas.”
A lottery drawing for muzzleloader antlerless
permit recipients will be held

Vermont Turkey Brood Survey Starts Aug. 1
Hunters Take 5,349 Turkeys in VT’s Spring Seasons
A preliminary report from Vermont Fish
& Wildlife shows that hunters brought home
5,349 wild turkeys during the spring hunting
season, including 571 turkeys taken during
the April youth weekend hunt.
“Although this year’s results represent a
modest decrease in harvest from those
observed over the past few record setting
years, the harvest was only slightly below the
average harvest of the past ten years,” said
Vermont Fish and Wildlife turkey biologist
Chris Bernier.
“The prolonged cold and wet conditions
experienced during the season likely contributed
to the decline. Low production of
turkey poults in 2017 due to harsh spring
weather also likely resulted in fewer twoyear
old gobblers this past spring.”
Hunter success rates remained high with
23 percent of resident hunters taking birds,
and 35 percent of those successful hunters
harvested a second bearded bird to fill the
two-bird spring bag limit.
“The 5,349 turkeys represent an estimated
122,000 servings of locally sourced, organic
wild turkey meat as well as countless memories
and an enduring connection to the land,”
added Bernier.
Turkeys were hunted statewide and were
harvested in 240 of Vermont’s 253 towns.
The northern Lake Champlain Valley and
the Connecticut River Valley continued to be
productive regions for turkey hunters with
• • •
Wild turkeys are found throughout most
of Vermont, but their reproductive success is
monitored annually by the Vermont Fish &
Wildlife Department with help from “citizen
scientists” who report the number and size
of turkey families they see during August.
Fish & Wildlife is again asking the public
for help. If you see a group of young turkeys
in Vermont during August, the department
asks you to go to the turkey brood survey on
its website (www.vtfishandwildlife.com) so
you can record where and when you
observed the number of adult and young
turkeys, or poults.
“When combined with annual harvest
data, information gathered from this survey
helps to establish long-term trends in
Vermont’s wild turkey population,” said
Vermont Fish & Wildlife’s wild turkey biologist
Chris Bernier. “It also helps us assess the
impacts of spring and winter weather on the
survival of poults and adult turkeys which is
an important consideration in the management
of turkeys.”
“We monitor and manage wild turkey
numbers annually in order to maintain a
healthy, abundant and sustainable population
of these iconic and ecologically significant
birds throughout the state,” added
Bernier. “Beyond providing Vermonters
with a local source of protein and an enduring
connection to their environment, turkey
hunting is the principal mechanism for managing
Vermont’s turkey population. Please
help us scientifically manage the turkey population
by reporting your Vermont turkey
sightings during August.”
the highest harvests again recorded in these
parts of the state.
Vermont continues to prioritize high quality
spring turkey hunting over fall turkey
hunting opportunities. “This strategy certainly
helped us sustain an abundant turkey
population and realize a successful spring
season despite the shortage of beechnuts and
acorns we experienced last fall and the challenging
winter and spring weather turkeys
faced,” said Bernier.
“Vermont’s long history of careful and
considerate management of wild turkeys has
positioned us to maximize the benefits we all
receive from this remarkable bird. Beyond
the simple enjoyment and sustenance people
get from watching and hunting wild turkeys,
these birds play a critical role in the environment
as an important prey item and influence
the populations of many other species.”
Conservation of wild turkey habitat continues
to play a key role in the health and
vitality of their population. Bernier notes
that a patchwork of fields and forests provide
most of what a turkey needs to survive. He
says the efforts to protect and manage habitat
by private landowners, volunteer-based
conservation groups like the National Wild
Turkey Federation, and state and NGO conservation
organizations will help ensure
Vermont has a sustainable and abundant
wild turkey population for the future.

Governor Phil Scott Joins Nation’s Governors to Launch Outdoor
Recreation Learning Network to Promote Economic Growth
The National Governors Association (NGA) announced
Wednesday the launch of the Outdoor Recreation Learning
Network to help governors and their staffs leverage their
unique natural, cultural and historical resources to advance
economic, workforce, health and environmental benefits.
The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis estimates that the
outdoors industry employed more than 4.5 million people
nationally in 2016, and generated more than $730 billion in
economic impact.
Vermont outdoor recreation accounts for 34,000 direct
jobs and brings $2.5 billion into the economy.
“As my administration thought about how to grow our
economy, it became clear we could do more by leveraging
our natural and recreational assets – those closely aligned
with our outdoor recreation brand,” said Governor Scott. “In
2017 I established the Vermont Outdoor Recreation
Economic Collaborative by executive order to advise me and
my administration on how to enhance outdoor business
opportunities, improve participation, strengthen our recreation
infrastructure, protect our natural resources, and grow
Vermont’s economy,” Governor Scott said.
“While we have made progress, there is so much more we
can do and we’re looking forward to hearing from other
Governors and states here to learn more because it’s so
important to our economy and the overall health of our communities
– and ultimately a part of our identity as
Vermonters,” Governor Scott added.
NGA Solutions: The Center for Best Practices will partner
with state outdoor recreation directors through the network
to convene governors’ office staffs and other state officials.
Through peer-to-peer exchanges, the network will spotlight
strategies states can use to advance outdoor recreation. It
will focus on key issue areas, including conservation, stewardship,
education, workforce training, economic development,
infrastructure, public health, equity and wellness.
Governors launched the network at NGA’s annual Summer
Meeting, where state leaders share best practices and hear
from experts in various fields. This year, the meeting was
held in Salt Lake City, Utah, from July 24-26. Participants
included Utah Governor Gary Herbert, Maine Governor
Janet Mills, Oregon Governor Kate Brown, Vermont
Governor Phil Scott, Montana Governor Steve Bullock,
Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak and outdoor recreation
directors from many states. The launch was held at the
Natural History Museum of Utah’s Rio Tinto Center at the
University of Utah and included a guided walk in nearby Red
Butte Garden featuring a narration by Dr. David Strayer of
the University of Utah, a leading researcher in the cognitive
Forest Service Works to Heighten Awareness,
Offers Bear Safety Tips to Recreation Users
Forest Service officials in Vermont announced today that
they have had several reports of bear sightings, bears
approaching and entering shelters and some reports of bears
aggressively getting into backpacks in an attempt to find
food. This week the agency began posting alert notices at
trail shelters and at developed campsites to notify recreation
users about the recent spike in bear activity on the
Manchester Ranger District of the Green Mountain National
Forest. The Forest Service says it has had numerous reports
of bear sightings throughout the months of June and July.
Reports of human encounters with black bears continue
to increase across the Green Mountain National Forest.
While many visitors and campers never encounter a bear,
the Forest is their home and bears can quickly become
habituated to human food and waste. In recent weeks,
numerous incidents of bears looking for food have been
reported by visitors. It is vital that people recreating on the
Forest keep a clean campsite to ensure that bears and other
animals don’t forage for your food. Be sure to properly store
all food, and odorous items, including toothpaste, condiments
such as ketchup and mustard, food wrappers, and
anything else that may attract bears. Improperly stored food
not only attracts bears to people currently camping at a site,
but lets the bear know that it can find food at that campsite
in the future. The bear may return to the site when other
families are recreating there.
Too many times, visitors believe they have stored their
food safely, but in reality have left it within a bear’s reach.
Bears are meant to be wild and feeding them creates negative
consequences for them. Bears that get too used to people
may eventually have to be killed to ensure your safety.
Peregrine Falcon Nesting Season Complete
Hikers and rock climbers can return to
Vermont cliffs starting August 1 now that
peregrine falcon nesting season has ended.
The Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department
has confirmed that all the young falcons have
learned to fly and will not be disturbed by
human presence on the cliffs.
“The young peregrines have fledged, and
nesting data suggest Vermont falcons had a
successful year. A final report will be issued
later this year,” said Vermont Fish & Wildlife’s
bird biologist Doug Morin. “The falcon’s
nesting success is due in large part to the hikers
and rock climbers who observe a respectful
distance from nesting falcons during this
critical period. The nesting success of
Vermont’s peregrines would not be possible
without the more than 50 volunteers who
monitor the nest sites statewide from March
to the end of July.”
According to Audubon biologist Margaret

benefits of outdoor recreation.
“This effort hearkens back to the founding of the organization,”
observed Nikki Guilford, NGA interim executive
director and chief of staff. “In 1908, President Theodore
Roosevelt hosted the first meeting of the nation’s governors
at the White House to discuss conserving America’s natural
resources.”
Following that inaugural meeting, governors decided to
form an association through which they could come together
to discuss mutual concerns and act collectively.
The founding sponsors of the Outdoor Recreation
Learning Network include REI Co-op, the Outdoor Industry
Association and the Outdoor Recreation Roundtable.
“At REI Co-op, we believe a life outdoors is a life welllived.
So, we applaud NGA’s launch of the Outdoor
Recreation Learning Network. And we’re grateful to the
dozen-plus states that have created offices of outdoor recreation,
as well as to states considering them,” said Eric Artz,
REI’s president and CEO. “There are tremendous opportunities
for maximizing the social and economic benefits of
time outdoors – whether that’s improving stewardship,
access, equity, youth development or health outcomes.”
“We have seen states with offices of outdoor recreation
take great steps forward promoting and bolstering outdoor
recreation – bringing more jobs and revenue to rural and
gateway communities and coordinating amongst government
agencies while helping to get more children and families
outside and into healthier lifestyles,” said David
Weinstein, state and local policy director for Outdoor
Industry Association. “The Outdoor Recreation Learning
Network will be a great resource for existing outdoor recreation
offices and for states looking to develop new offices to
collaborate on and improve outdoor programs and initiatives
– OIA looks forward to helping build it.”
“Outdoor recreation is a crucial part of America’s economy,
contributing 2.2 percent of the gross domestic product
and growing faster than the economy as a whole,” said Jessica
Wahl, president of the Outdoor Recreation Roundtable.
“ORR is proud to partner with the National Governors
Association to launch the game-changing Outdoor
Recreation Learning Network. This partnership will ensure
that the outdoor recreation sector has the support it needs to
continue to grow in states across the country, providing outdoor
access for all, jobs, and health and quality of life benefits
for generations to come.”

Learning Network, see www.nga.org/outdoors.
Following safe food storage practices protects both you and
the bears. It is your responsibility to ensure your safety and
that of future campers by not purposefully or inadvertently
feeding bears. It is illegal in the State of Vermont to feed
bears. So remember:
• Always keep a clean camp.
• Don’t leave any food (including condiments) out when
not in use.
• Store food in bear-resistant units, hard-shelled vehicles or
car trunks.
• Keep sleeping areas, tents, and sleeping bags free of food
and odor (like toothpaste or deodorant).
• Don’t sleep in clothes you cooked or handled fish or game
in.
• Never bury or burn food waste.
• If camping in the backcountry, hang your food bag at least
10 feet off the ground and 5 feet out from a tree limb that
could support a bear, or better yet pack and use bear resistant
containers.
• If possible, in backcountry areas, place sleeping tents at
least 100 yards away from food storage and cooking areas.
• If hiking with a dog keep it on a leash or leave it home.
Persons should report bear sightings or damage caused by
bears to their nearest Vermont Fish & Wildlife office (802)
828-1000 or a local Vermont State Game Warden at (802)
442-5421 prior to taking any control action on their own.
Vermont Fish & Wildlife personnel will recommend appropriate
measures or control strategies that can alleviate bear
related problems.
Fowle, who coordinates the monitoring
effort on behalf of the Fish & Wildlife
Department, biologists and volunteers monitored
peregrine pairs that occupied at least 55
Vermont cliffs in early spring and summer.
“We greatly appreciate the time and effort
volunteers put in to monitoring the population
this year, and we thank landowners and
recreationists for their cooperation in protecting
nesting peregrines from human disturbance,”
said Fowle.
Vermont Fish & Wildlife and Audubon
Vermont partner to monitor and protect
peregrine nesting sites in Vermont. Peregrine
falcons were removed from the state’s
Threatened and Endangered Species List in
2005. Ongoing cooperation from recreationists
and continued monitoring efforts by
Vermont Fish & Wildlife and Audubon
Vermont will help ensure the peregrine’s
remarkable recovery in future years.
