Which Way, L.A.?
The Life and Death of Coyotes in Urban Los Angeles Coyotes have learned to live with people. Can people learn to live with coyotes? That question arises after the killing of eight coyotes in Griffith Park by the State Department of Fish and Game. It all started when a man claimed a coyote nipped at his foot while he was napping near Travel Town. He complained to the City’s Department of Animal Services.

The Griffith Park Fire The Griffith Park fire in the Hollywood Hills burned 817 acres, the largest fire in Los Angeles since 1961. Fire officials say it may have been started by a 23-year old homeless man who fell asleep while smoking a cigarette, and is now is being treated for second and third-degree burns. Fire officials say that the fire is now 50% contained and that full control could take another 24 hours.

Later on today’s show, now that he’s into his second term, comedian turned US Senator Al Franken is telling jokes again.
