By  JOHN  FLOWERS ADDISON  —  Vermont  State  Po-­ lice  have  collared  a  man  they  believe  might  be  responsible  for  dozens  of  burglaries  that  have  occurred  in  Ad-­ dison  County  since  the  beginning  of  this  year.

Raymond  Ritchie,  37,  of  Addi-­

son  pleaded  not  guilty  in  Addison  County  Superior  Court  on  Aug.  1  to  three  counts  each  of  unlawful  tres-­ pass  into  an  occupied  residence  and  possession  of  stolen  property.  But  based  on  what  state  police  said  were  “thousandsâ€?  of  suspected  stolen  items  recovered  during  a  search  of Â

Ritchie’s  property  at  151  Algonquin  Drive,  authorities  believe  Ritchie  could  be  linked  to  many  more  of  the  103  burglaries  that  have  been  reported  in  Addison  County  so  far  this  year.

If  convicted  of  the  crimes  for  which  he  has  been  charged,  Ritchie Â

could  spend  the  rest  of  his  life  in  jail,  according  to  Addison  County  Dep-­ uty  State’s  Attorney  Chris  Perkett.  That’s  because  Ritchie  already  has  a  lengthy  rap  sheet  featuring  10  past  felony  convictions  for  such  offenses  as  burglary,  aggravated  assault  on  a  (See  Suspects,  Page  19)

Into the Woods

A GROUP OF 10 preschoolers had grand adventures in the woods last week during Jumping Mouse Camp spon-­ sored by the Middlebury Area Land Trust. On Tuesday the kids met with teachers Katie McEachen, Joe Schine and Emily Robinson at a Trail Around Middlebury entry point in Weybridge and hiked into the woods for a morning of fun.

Thompson Bowl part of Field Days tradition By  DEVON  J.  VILA ADDISON  COUNTY  —  There  are  those  in  Addison  County  that  live  off  of  tradition  and  excellence.  The  Leona  Thompson  Bowl  offers  both.  Since  1974  the  Leona  Thompson  Bowl  has  been  presented  annually  to  the  best  all-­around  participant  in  the  Home  and  Garden  Depart-­ ment  competitions  at  the  Addison  County  Fair  and  Field  Days.  Every  summer  at  the  fair,  which  this  year  runs  this  Tuesday  through  Saturday  at  the  fairgrounds  in  New  Haven,  the  public  is  invited  to  compete  in  Home  and  Garden  categories  that  range  through  various  handicrafts  and  foods,  which  include  knitting,  Christmas  crafts,  doughnuts,  canned  vegetables  and  many  more  .

Points  are  awarded  in  each  cat-­ egory  and  class  —  10  points  for  a  *UDQG 5RVHWWH ¿YH SRLQWV IRU D EOXH ribbon,  etc.  In  the  event  of  a  tie,  of-­ ¿FLDOV IURP WKH +RPH DQG *DUGHQ Department  determine  the  winner.  The  pewter  bowl  trophy  is  etched  with  the  names  of  proud  winners  of  this  coveted  trophy  honoring  Leona  Thompson,  a  former  Addison  Coun-­ ty  Extension  Service  Agent.  Except  during  the  week  of  Field  Days,  the  Leona  Thompson  Bowl  is  displayed  at  Middlebury  Sew-­N-­Vac  in  Mid-­ dlebury.

Cheryl  Morrison,  the  director  of  the  Field  Days  Home  and  Garden  Department,  said  Addison  County  residents  who  take  part  in  the  com-­ petition  take  it  seriously  —  they  have  to  if  they  want  to  win. “It’s  a  lot  of  work,â€?  she  said.  ³6RPH WKLQJV \RX FDQ ÂżQLVK XS WKH night  before,  but  some  you  have  WR SXW WKH ÂżQLVKLQJ WRXFKHV RQ WKH morning  of  the  competition.  We  al-­ ways  have  people  rushing  in  at  the  last  minute.â€?

Morrison  explained  the  type  of  baked  good  exhibits  that  vie  for  the  Leona  Thompson  Bowl. “Because  of  the  way  the  fair  is,  people  bring  cookies,  cakes,  pies,�  she  said.  “Stuff  that  has  to  last  for  a  little  while.�

The  Bowl  has  a  long  history  of  competitors  that  enter  yearly,  as  well  as  some  new  ones  each  year.  Contes-­ tants  can  range  from  four  years  old Â

to  into  their  nineties. “We  get  about  400  competitors  each  year,�  Morrison  said.  “With  around  700  exhibits.  Most  people  submit  more  than  one  entry  in  each  category.�

Everybody  who  helps  set  up  the  exhibits  and  all  of  the  judges  are  volunteers.  The  entire  exhibit  hall  is  set  up  the  day  before  with  competi-­ tors  bringing  their  goods  that  day.  Around  700  exhibits  are  set  up  the  day  before,  a  major  operation  that  takes  the  entire  day,  and  the  exhibit  hall  is  ready  for  the  around  400  oc-­ cupants  that  come  and  go  the  day  of  the  competition.

Leona  Thompson  was  a  member  of  the  Addison  County  Extension  Homemakers  Council  in  the  1960s  and  early  ’70s,  She  was  a  woman  who  believed  in  passing  down  skills.  “She  taught  a  lot  of  people  quilt-­ ing,�  Morrison  said.  “She  organized  the  Home  Demonstration  group.  People  would  get  together  and  learn  upholstering  or  quilting,  or  some  of  the  other  craft  activities  that  maybe  they  hadn’t  learned  from  their  moth-­ ers  or  grandmothers.�

Lucien  Paquette,  who  founded  Field  Days  in  1948,  knew  Leona  Thompson  and  worked  with  her. “She  was  an  excellent  educational  person,â€?  Paquette  said.  “She  was  a  diligent  worker  and  very  conscien-­ tious.  She  worked  with  women  and  entire  families.  She  was  well-­quali-­ ÂżHG DQG D KDUG ZRUNHU ´ The  competition  to  have  one’s Â

German students sing Strauss auf Deutsch Middlebury  College  is  famous  for  its  â&#x20AC;&#x153;total  immersionâ&#x20AC;?  summer  lan-­ guage  program,  in  which  students  are  required  to  speak,  read  and  even  think  in  the  language  theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  study-­ ing  for  the  length  of  their  stay.

The  German  for  Singers  program  takes  this  a  step  further,  combining  music  and  vocal  instruction  with  the  traditional  language  curriculum.  This  year  the  school  will  feature  its  talented  young  singers  in  Johann  Straussâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  fa-­ mous  operetta,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Die  Fledermaus,â&#x20AC;?  which  will  play  two  performances  at  Middleburyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Town  Hall  Theater  on  Thursday  and  Friday,  at  8  p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Die  Fledermausâ&#x20AC;?  (â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  Batâ&#x20AC;?)  is  a  mischievous  delight,  a  tale  of  re-­ venge  and  mistaken  identity  with  in-­ spired  silliness  and  a  luscious  score  by  Strauss.  This  very  Viennese  plot  is  bathed  in  some  of  Straussâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  most  famous  music,  a  whole  bouquet  of  musical  idioms  that  perfectly  cap-­ ture  the  Austro-­Hungarian  Empire  in  late  19th  century.

The  production  is  directed  by  Bet-­ tina  Matthias  with  Stephan  Boving.  The  musical  director  is  Stefan  Rut-­ ter.  The  production  is  in  German  with  no  supertitles,  but  there  will  be  a  pre-­performance  talk  in  English  at  7:30  p.m.

The  main  section  of  the  theater  is  reserved  for  language  school  stu-­ dents,  but  seats  in  the  balcony  will  be  made  available  to  anyone  in  the  community  for  $15.  Tickets  may  be  purchased  at  townhalltheater.org,  DW WKH 7+7 %R[ 2I¿FH (daily  except  Sunday,  noon-­5  p.m.)  and  at  the  door,  if  available.

HOT  JAZZ  IN  BRANDON The  swinging  beats  of  the  Jeremy  Mohney  Quartet  bring  their  hot  jazz  sound  to  Brandon  Music  on  Sunday  at  7:30  p.m.

Hot  jazz  started  in  New  Orleans  in  the  early  20th  century  with  a  blend  of  ragtime,  blues,  and  brass  band  marches  and  was  the  precursor  to Â

JOHANN Â STRAUSS

swing  music.  Louis  Armstrong  once  said,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  two  kinds  of  music,  the  good  and  the  bad.  I  play  the  good  kind.â&#x20AC;?  Mohney  and  his  quartet  do,  too,  following  in  the  footsteps  of  such  artists  as  Armstrong,  Count  Basie,  Benny  Goodman,  Django  Re-­ inhardt  and  Glenn  Miller.  However,  Mohney  adds  his  original  composi-­

Vermont  Community  Foundation  hires  two  for  2-­year  fellowships MIDDLEBURY  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  The  Vermont  Community  Foundation,  the  High  Meadows  Fund  and  Middlebury  College  announce  that  two  recent  Middlebury  College  graduates  have  been  hired  for  two-­year  fellowships  with  the  Vermont  Community  Foundation  and  the  High  Meadows  Fund.  The  fellowship  program  was  estab-­ lished  in  2007  with  the  support  of  Community  Foundation  fund-­ holders  Carl  and  Judy  Ferenbach.  For  the  current  fellowships,  the  J.  Warren  and  Lois  McClure  Foundation  is  also  providing  support.

Community  Foundation  President  Stuart  Comstock-­Gay  says,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our  hope  is  that  these  fellowships  will  instill  a  belief  in  the  value  of  philanthropy  to  build  community  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  a  belief  the  fellows  can  take  with  them  wherever  they  go  in  life.  Each  fellow  brings  their  own  interests,  skills,  and  fresh  perspective  to  the  role,  some-­ thing  that  has  proven  invaluable  over  the  past  six  years  in  helping  us  achieve  our  mission  of  build-­ ing  healthy  and  vital  Vermont  communities.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  are  delighted  that  the  Vermont  Community  Foundation  values  the  talents  and  commit-­ ment  of  our  graduates.  In  return,  our  alumni  have  a  wonderful  opportunity  to  learn  a  number  of  skills  and  bring  that  experi-­ ence  to  whatever  challenge  they  pursue  next,â&#x20AC;?  said  Tracy  Himmel  Isham,  assistant  director  of  career  services  at  Middlebury  College.  Emily  Jacke  (â&#x20AC;&#x2122;12.5)  is Â

the  2013-­2015  Community  Philanthropy  Fellow  and  will  work  with  the  communications,  grant-­making  and  philanthropy  teams  to  build  the  public  profile  of  philanthropy  in  Vermont.  She  will  be  introduced  to  the  fields  of  community  development,  communications,  public  rela-­ tions,  community  research,  and  marketing.

On  a  beautiful  Vermont  summer  day,  Jeanne  Lamoureaux  Wood  ZDV VWDQGLQJ RXWVLGH WKH HLJKW IRRW KLJK HOHFWUL¿HG fence  with  her  husband,  Bob,  on  their  Whiting  farm  ad-­ miring  their  bull  buffalo,  Sparky.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  nothing  like  standing  next  to  a  buffalo  to  make  you  feel  American.  And  very  small.  Having  a  buf-­ falo  on  your  farm  is  like  keeping  a  bald  eagle.  They  are,  by  their  nature,  symbolic  of  America.  They  are  majestic,  stoic  and  quixotic,  and  they  harken  back  the  Old  West,  Na-­ tive  Americans,  sandstone,  cowboys  and  wagon  trains.  They  elicit  patriotism.  They  are  American.

And  like  so  many  things  American,  buffalo,  or  bison  as  they  are  more  properly  known,  are  valuable  commodities.  The  Native  Americans  used  every  bit  of  the  buffalo,  from  eat-­ ing  the  meat  and  organs  to  using  the  hides  for  blankets  and  clothing,  the  bones  for  weapons,  the  horns  for  medication,  and  the  manure  for  fuel.  If  youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  willing  to  take  on  the  re-­ sponsibility  and  the  risk  involved  with  raising  buffalo,  there  is  D PDUNHW IRU WKH PHDW DQG WKH ÂżEHU IURP WKHLU WKLFN FRDWV $QG it  makes  sense  that,  much  like  the  Native  Americans,  pragmatic  Vermonters  see  the  value  and  multiple  uses  for  buffalo,  which  may  be  a  burgeoning  market  on  a  smaller  scale,  right  here  in  the  Green  Mountain  State.

Sparky  does  attract  attention,  and  the  three  female  buffalo  on  the  farm  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Freona,  Veona  and  Lucky  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  do  as  well.  Their  pas-­ ture  at  Wood  Roan  Ranch  sits  along  Route  30  adjacent  to  Bob  and  Jeanneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  farmhouse  and  barnyard.  Across  the  road  is  a  mil-­ lion  dollar  view  of  the  Green  Mountains  and  Brandon  Gap.  And  you  just  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  expect  to  see  buffalo  driving  through  Ver-­ mont. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People  stop  all  the  time,â&#x20AC;?  Jeanne  said.

People  from  New  Jersey  to  Iowa,  and  California  to  Switzerland  pull  over  to  get  a  closer  look.

Bob  and  Jeanne  live  on  the  farm  with  their  son,  Shane,  14.  The  farmhouse,  barnyard  and  pasture  sit  on  nine  acres  on  the  east  side  of  Route  30,  with  another  25  acres  across  the  road.

In  addition  to  the  buffalo,  Bob  and  Jeanne  keep  two  Jersey  cows  DQG D FDOI HLJKW KRUVHV D Ă&#x20AC;RFN RI OD\LQJ KHQV WZR UHG $XVWUDOLDQ

State asks for assistance in counting young turkeys VERMONT — How many broods of wild turkeys are you seeing in Ver-­ mont, and how many young turkeys, or poults, are roaming with their mothers?

The Vermont Fish & Wildlife De-­ partment is asking people who see turkeys during August to report their sightings in the state’s seventh annual on-­ line turkey brood survey.

The turkey brood survey can be found on

WKH GHSDUWPHQW¶V ZHEVLWH ZZZ YW¿V-­ handwildlife.com). The survey allows entry of the numbers of adult males, adult females and poults as well as the date, time and location of the obser-­ vations.

The data you report will help estab-­ lish long-­term trends in turkey repro-­ duction and recruitment. This information will be extremely useful in the management of the wild turkey population. It will help answer

questions concerning the impacts of spring and winter weather on the survival of poults and adult turkeys. It will help with the set-­ ting of turkey seasons and harvest limits that are designed to manage the Vermont’s turkey population.

Vermont has excellent turkey hunting across PRVW RI WKH VWDWH WKDW EHQH¿WV WKH SHRSOH RI Vermont by providing hunting opportunity, economic activity and carefully regulated con-­ trol of turkey numbers. Overabundant turkey

populations can result in nuisance situations when crops or properties are damaged by tur-­ keys.

More than 6,200 wild turkeys were harvested in Vermont this past spring — the highest harvest to date by Ver-­ mont hunters in both the May spring season and the youth turkey hunting weekend during (See Turkey, Page 17)

0LGGOHEXU\ KLUHV QHZ SROLFH RIÂżFHUV FKLHI WDNHV OHDYH By  JOHN  FLOWERS MIDDLEBURY  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  The  Middlebury  Police  Department  in  the  coming  months  will  phase  in  two  newly  hired  police  offi-­ cers  to  replace  two  members  who  have  left  the  force.  It  is  a  transi-­ tion  that  will,  in  the  meantime,  require  some  creative  scheduling  to  ensure  shift  coverage  during  the  coming  months  while  the  new  recruits  are  in  training.

Meanwhile,  longtime  Middlebury  police  Chief  Tom  Hanley  on  July  31  began  what  he  suspected  would  be  an  eight-­week  medical  sabbatical  to  undergo  a  heart  bypass  procedure.  Veteran  Sgt.  Michael  Christopher  will  direct  the  department  during  the Â

chiefâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  absence. basis.  Mogerly  had  previously  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll  be  rough  for  the  next  five  worked  for  the  Vergennes  force  months,  but  weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll  get  through  it,â&#x20AC;?  before  joining  the  Middlebury  Hanley  said.

five  years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Suddenly,  this  past  winter,  we  started  seeing  this  boom  in  people  wanting  to  become  police  offi-­ cers,â&#x20AC;?  he  added.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  quality  of  applicants  are  folks  who  are  able  to  get  through  all  the  screenings.  Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  encouraging.â&#x20AC;?

Two  names  floated  to  the  top  of  the  applicant  pool:  Bruce  Meacham,  a  former  Middlebury  Water  Department  worker,  and  Connor  Sousa  of  Rutland.  Both  will  be  attending  Vermont  Police  Academy  training  during  the  coming  months  to  become  fully  certified  and  road-­ready  by  the  end  of  this  year  or  early  2014,  according  to  Hanley.  The  depart-­ ment  will  make  sure  first-­response Â

patrol  shifts  are  filled  by  using  part-­time  officers  and  redeploying  personnel  from  other  functions.  For  example,  School  Resource  Officer  Chris  Mason  has  been  rotated  into  patrol  duties  since  school  is  not  in  session  right  now.

Hanley  said  the  department  has  also  been  recruiting  some  part-­ time  officers  and  dispatchers  to  fill  current  vacancies.

When  fully  staffed,  the  Middlebury  Police  Department  consists  of  14  uniformed  person-­ nel  and  four  part-­time  officers.

Hanley  plans  to  begin  working  from  home  a  few  weeks  after  his  medical  procedure.

2013 Garden Game

7KH *DUGHQ *DPH LV Ă&#x20AC;QDOO\ WDNLQJ RII Chris Gariepy is a new player to our garden game!

She brought in a big summer squash from her garden in Whiting. We were very impressed since our squash at home is still very, very small. This summer squash was 17â&#x20AC;? long by 14.5â&#x20AC;? around! She says â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is for you, Sid!â&#x20AC;?

Gary Miller has been a regular winner in our garden game for the longest string bean. This year he had special help from some little garden gnomes named Bridget and Charlotte Graham, Autumn and Maggie Miller and Daisy Madden. They must have had the magic touch because this bean is a whopping 31 inches long!

he  said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Part  of  establishing  the  action  plan  is  engaging  that  digital  land-­ scape  and  really  thinking  about  ways  to  take  the  traditional  struc-­ ture  of  the  classroom  and  bring  in  media  and  technology  in  a  way  that  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  just  writing  a  report  on  a  computer,  but  actually  changing  the  way  students  learn  to  incorpo-­ rate  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  what  for  them  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  is  second  nature,â&#x20AC;?  Burrows  said.

The  ACSU  has  been  working  to  shore  up  its  computer  network.  Burrows  hopes  the  district  will  soon  have  the  ability  to  ensure  each  student  has  access  to  a  computer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Establishing  technology  as  the  medium  through  which  learning  happens  is  essential,â&#x20AC;?  Burrows  said.

The  new  superintendent  would  also  like  to  see  more  partnering  be-­ tween  the  ACSU  and  Middlebury  College  and  the  Community  Col-­ lege  of  Vermont.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Middlebury  College  is  a  huge  resource,â&#x20AC;?  Burrows  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  can  see  great  potential  for  partnership.â&#x20AC;?

Burrows  realizes  that  he  has  also  inherited  some  weighty  issues  that  should  garner  a  lot  of  discussion  during  the  coming  months.  They  include  the  prospect  of  governance  consolidation  within  the  ACSU,  which  currently  has  nine  boards  to  which  the  superintendent  must  an-­ swer;Íž  and  the  concept  of  introduc-­ ing  foreign  language  instruction  throughout  the  districtsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  schools  so  younger  students  are  better  pre-­ pared  for  such  offerings  at  the  mid-­

dle-­  and  high  school  levels.

The  ACSU  Study  Committee  is  working  with  a  consultant  on  a  re-­ port  that  could  eventually  lead  to  a  district-­wide  vote  to  change  the  governance  structure.  A  panel  is  also  looking  at  the  feasibility  and  costs  of  a  district-­wide  world  lan-­ guages  program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  think  there  are  a  lot  of  posi-­ tives  ahead,â&#x20AC;?  Burrows  said  of  his  early  appraisal  of  the  ACSU.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  feel  good  about  where  we  are  and  where  we  are  headed.â&#x20AC;?

Local  snake  populations  threatened  by  Snake  Fungal  Disease By  MICHAEL  J.  CADUTO In  the  case  of  snake  fungal  disease,  if  the  Jedi  Knight  from  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Star  Wars,â&#x20AC;?  Obi-­Wan  Kenobi,  summoned  the  power  of  nature  by  utter-­ ing,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  spores  be  with  you,â&#x20AC;?  he  would  be  spot  on.  This  infectious  organ-­ ism  features  minute  spores  that  produce  a  fungus  capable  of  defeating  powerful  venomous  snakes.  Virtually  unheard  of  in  the  wild  prior  to  2006,  Ophidiomyces  ophiodiicola  has  been  found  on  wild  snakes  in  nearly  a  dozen  states,  including  New  Hampshire  and  Vermont.  It  is  suspected  of  wiping  out  half  the  population  of  timber  rattle-­ snakes  in  New  Hampshire  between  2006  and  2007.  Snake  fungal  disease,  or  SFD,  causes  snakes  to  develop  opaque  eyes,  scabby  scales  and  misshapen  nodules  on  their  heads  and  bodies.  Their  skin  swells  and  thickens,  devel-­ ops  ulcers,  and  sheds  prematurely.  Because  SFD  occurs  on  animals  in  captivity,  where  it  thrives  in  warm,  moist  conditions,  some  scientists  suspect  that  the  fungus  may  have  migrated  into  the  wild  as  tempera-­ tures  and  humidity  have  increased.  Climate  change  may  also  make  it  easier  for  diseases  to  spread  during  the  winter,  when  many  snakes  hiber-­ nate  en  masse  underground.

Dr.  Jeffrey  Lorch  of  the  University  of  Wisconsin  Madison  has  conducted  most  of  the  recent  fungus  cultures  on  snakeskins  for  the  U.S.  Geological  Surveyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  National  Wildlife  Health  &HQWHU +H VD\V WKDW DQHFGRWDO ÂżHOG reports  suggest  that  SFD  has  been  in  North  America  â&#x20AC;&#x153;for  quite  some  time,â&#x20AC;?  and  may  even  be  a  native  species.  (Lorchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  previous  research  was  instru-­ mental  in  identifying  the  fungus  that Â

The

causes  white-­nose  syndrome,  which  has  killed  millions  of  bats  throughout  the  Northeast.)

SFD  infects  all  kinds  of  snakes  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  from  rat  snakes  to  rattlers.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  is  likely  that  most  snake  species  in  east-­ ern  North  America  can  contract  SFD,â&#x20AC;?  says  Lorch,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;but  we  really  do  not  know  the  population-­ level  impacts  at  this  time  or  how  the  infec-­ tion  varies  b e t w e e n  s p e c i e s . â&#x20AC;?  The  great-­ est  concern  has  arisen  with  snake  species  that  occur  in  small,  isolated  populations,  for  which  losses  of  even  a  few  animals  could  severely  limit  the  ability  of  those  populations  to  persist  or  recover.  These  vulnerable  species  include  timber  rattlesnakes.  Endangered  in  Vermont  and  New  Hampshire,  rattle-­ snakes  survive  as  relict  populations  that  harbor  little  genetic  diversity,  so  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  less  likely  that  an  individual  will  emerge  that  is  resistant  to  SFD.  Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Rutland  County  is  home  to  two  populations  that  contain  the  last  few  hundred  individuals.  In  New  Hampshire,  rattlesnakes  have  been  reduced  to  a  single  population.  The  best  way  to  minimize  SFD  is  to  report  sightings  of  infected  snakes  to  the  appropriate  state  or  federal  agency.  Take  photographs,  if  you  can  do  it  safely.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Citizen  reporting,â&#x20AC;?

says  Lorch,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;can  help  determine  how  widespread  SFD  is,  which  species  are  affected,  and  whether  the  disease  SRVHV D VLJQLÂżFDQW ULVN WR VQDNHV across  the  Eastern  U.S.â&#x20AC;?

Lorch  urges  precautions  to  avoid  spreading  the  disease,  such  as  disin-­ fecting  equipment,  clothing  and Â

hands  after  handling  captive  and  wild  snakes.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  is  a  good  idea  to  prevent  wild  and  captive  (particularly  exotic)  snakes  from  having  any  sort  of  contact  with  one  another  if  one  of  the  animals  may  be  released  back  into  the  wild.â&#x20AC;?

But  why  care  if  snakes  disappear? Â

As  predators  that  slither  along  the  middle  links  of  the  food-­chain,  snakes  keep  populations  of  prey  in  check,  including  grasshoppers,  mice,  voles,  rats  and  other  critters  that  frequently  damage  and  destroy  crops  and  gardens.  Snakes  provide  food  for  larger  animals,  such  as  hawks,  owls,  coyotes,  raccoons  and  foxes.  As  part  of  the  natural  diversity  of  life,  they  help  ecosys-­ tems  to  be  more  resilient.

S n a k e s  also  have  medical  u s e s .  Several  d r u g s ,  includ-­ i n g  HSWLÂżED-­ tide  and  tirofiban  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  used  to  prevent  blood  clots  in  patients  with  symptoms  of  chest  pains  and  minor  heart  attacks  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  are  based  on  snake  venom  proteins.  When  administered  in  time,  these  drugs  help  prevent  a  full-­blown  infarction.
