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.
Which Way, L.A.?
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.

Heading for the fire exit Thousands of Californians are spending the holidays deciding what to do next after devastating wildfires. The Camp Fire – in northern California – took out nearly an entire town, killing at least 86 people. And the Woolsey Fire, closer to home, left 3 people dead, chewing through nearly 100,000 acres in L.A. and Ventura Counties. Ken Pimlott knows those names all too well. He heads up the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, and today is his last day on the job.
