Hi, Every year our block has 1-3 fawns born and the mother deer are protective for about 3 weeks, and especially aggressive towards dogs. At the very end of the birth cycle last spring 2024, the city put a couple signs up to warn the dog walkers off our block. That would be wonderful to have again this year - our first 2025 fawn must’ve been born today in the backyard of mine (808) or my neighbor’s (810) backyard on S Fess. If we could please have 2 signs for the next month or so to post out front at the ends of the block, that would be very helpful. Some folks know the drill and move back quickly and others take less effective approaches that endanger themselves and their dogs. Thanks! MaryAnn

Hello, I do not live in the town of Bloomington Indiana but I have become aware of a man who I think lives in this town named William j. clark now I will not get into specifics because it is absolutely discusting but he has become an infamous "Furry content creator" on the internet for many reasons but one of the reasons that is distressing is that he is raping his animals I'm sure you guys know about this but I am just very concerned with the state of his animals. Thank you

Abundance of stray cats. They are feed outside. All day and night. Upwards of 12 at a time. This is beyond out of control. Is there not a limit on the number of "pets" someone can have in the street before its a nuisance?

Two very assertive/aggressive deer. One initially on the south side of 3rd, saw three humans and three dogs and trotted from 25-50 yards away, crossed the street, and then followed us on the campus side of the street until the 3rd person in our group deterred it with waving their hat, enough for the deer to run parallel with us again on the other side of the street. Second deer looked over rock ledge at the music school, spotted us, and then proceeded to walk towards us as if to meet up right at the 3rd/Eagleson bus stop. Two deer ended up interacting with one another after the first deer crossed back to our side. Humans and dogs entered Soma to plot remainder of walking route. This area is very busy with cars, buses, cyclists, and pedestrians, and the music school constantly has people in/out of it during the summer months. I’m concerned for all parties, but I would like to know what I can do to deter a deer that is actively pursuing me. I’ve now had deer chase me twice in the last two years. Last year near Bryan Park, and now on campus. Signs to avoid the area aren’t going to cut it if the deer will follow and pursue for blocks.

Our neighbor at 3830 S Woods Edge Bnd continues to let their dog get loose and in the last day we have now seen it attack a couple walking Saturday and now an elderly man and his dog. For 6 months we have repeatedly coaxed the dog back towards its fencing and the owner has acknowledged the dog being out but hasn’t addressed issue.

There's a stray cat colony in this area that isn't spay/neutered that's being fed by people. Bloomington animal shelter was informed, but we're just trying to be thorough, because we saw 2 pregnant female cats, various kittens, and an activity nursing mother cat. Its very upsetting knowing there are actively kittens/cats in danger because of predators being attracted to the food & them being right next to that highway. We actively saw a cat chasing out a full grown fox from the area while sitting there. None of them have tipped ears indicating TNR and most are timid of people, but seem to be reliant on food from people and will come out a little (some are completely friendly it seems).
