Dead skunk in middle of road. Quite smelly!
Aggressive deer charging human beings

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).
Family of 5 groundhogs! They're destroying our yards and eating our plants. Help! Thanks!
Dead bunny on old hospital site parking lot across from 611 W Wylie.
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.
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.
