A mother and calf moose roaming a Hailey neighborhood was recently relocated ahead of the July 4, holiday out of concern for the animals and safety of the public.
People are generally kind and quick to retrieve their animals when this happens, but it doesn't change the fact that we don't the tendencies of other people's pets.
This raises an interesting topic. I see dogs running loose every time I go camping. Aside from the fact the animal was shot, do we, as campers, need to do a better job of containing our animals.
Local health officials say several dogs became sick recently after playing in two small lakes west of Hailey prompting a test of the water that came back negative for harmful algae.
