3LSHOLQH SURWHVWRUV PLVÂżUH Environmental  protestors  of  the  proposed  extension  of  Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Gasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  pipeline  from  Burlington  to  Middlebury  gathered  in  front  of  Champlain  Valley  Union  high  school  last  week  to  rail  against  the  project  and  the  controversial  process  of  hydraulic  fracturing  to  ex-­ tract  the  gas.  While  acknowledging  that  natural  gas  would  reduce  the  cost  of  fuel  for  Vermont  residents  and  businesses  by  40  percent  or  more,  and  reduce  the  carbon  footprint  by  roughly  half  compared  to  the  use  of  fuel  oil,  the  protestors  were  adamant  that  the  money  used  to  build  the  pipeline  could  be  better  spent  on  renewable  energy  projects  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  with  even  less  damage  done  to  the  environment.

They  are  right,  of  course.  Except  they  confuse  the  source  of  funding.  Vermont  Gas  is  a  pri-­ vate  company  that  is  building  the  pipeline  to  Middlebury  in  phase  one,  with  a  possible  extension  in  phase  two  to  the  International  Pa-­ per  plant  in  Ticonderoga,  N.Y..  Phrase  three  takes  it  to  Rutland.  The  project  will  be  built  without  any  cost  to  the  taxpayer.  When  protes-­ tors  suggest  that  money  (roughly  $70  million  to  get  the  pipeline  to  Ticonderoga)  could  be  better  used  in  other  ways,  the  implication  is  that  government  could  spend  that  money  more  wisely  by  putting  it  into  weatherization  projects  or  renewable  energy.  Ah,  but  to  do  that,  the  taxpayer  pays  that  $70  million.  Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  a  big  difference. :HÂśUH VXSSRUWHUV RI WKH ÂżJKW WR UHGXFH WKH QDWLRQÂśV FDUERQ IRRW-­ print.  We  support  spending  on  renewable  energy  as  a  way  to  jump-­ start  that  industry  and  keep  it  in  business.  We  do  that  in  hope  that  new  technologies  will  drive  down  the  cost  of  renewable  energy  and  someday  make  it  competitive  with  fossil  fuels  so  it  can  compete  in  the  marketplace  without  federal  handouts.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  not  there  today,  nor  will  we  be  in  the  near  future.  The  challenge  today  is  to  make  as  much  progress  toward  the  goal  of  reducing  our  carbon  footprint  as  quickly  as  we  can  without  bankrupt-­ ing  our  governments,  residents  or  businesses.  The  proposed  Vermont  Gas  pipeline  to  Middlebury,  Ticonderoga  and  eventually  on  down  to  Rutland,  helps  that  cause.  Indeed,  a  case  can  be  made  that  by  mov-­ ing  all  those  potential  customers  off  of  fuel  oil  and  onto  natural  gas,  weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll  do  more  to  reduce  the  carbon  footprint  of  the  area  almost  im-­ mediately  (as  soon  as  it  comes  online  in  the  next  few  years)  than  we  could  hope  to  do  by  lining  Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  ridgelines  in  this  area  with  wind  WXUELQHV RU ÂżOOLQJ RXU ÂżHOGV ZLWK VRODU SDQHOV ,W LV QRW D SHUIHFW RS-­ tion,  but  it  is  a  realistic  one.

7KH ÂżJKW WR UHGXFH FDUERQ GLR[LGH LQ WKH DWPRVSKHUH LV D ORQJ WHUP game  that  has  to  be  met  with  economic  realities  in  mind.  The  pipeline  would  not  only  immediately  reduce  the  areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  carbon  footprint,  but  it  also  doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  add  to  our  tax  burden,  and  it  strengthens  the  local  econ-­ RP\ E\ FXWWLQJ IXHO FRVWV 0RUH SURÂżWDEOH EXVLQHVVHV PHDQ PRUH WD[ revenues  to  do  the  good  things  government  can  do.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  a  win-­win-­tie,  but  two  out  of  three  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  bad.

Letters to the Editor Society  must  start  weening  itself  off  of  fossil  fuels It  is  rare  for  a  day  to  go  by  without  reading  an  article  in  either  a  newspaper  or  magazine  opposing  wind  power  in  Vermont,  or  at  least  suggesting  a  three-­year  (or  even  a  10-­year)  moratorium  on  its  develop-­ ment.  Also,  there  are  a  large  number  of  individuals  who  support  the  Keystone  XL  pipeline,  suggesting,  as  did  Fareed  Zakaria  in  his  recent  Time  magazine  article  (March  18),  that  where  there  is  a  demand  for  oil,  there  will  be  supply.  I  feel  that  it  is  time  to  offer  a  different  perspective.

First,  some  disclaimers.  Although  a  member  of  350.org,  I  am  not  an  environmentalist  nor  a  climatologist  by  training;Íž  rather,  I  am  a  retired Â

family  physician  who  remains  con-­ cerned  about  the  future  well-­being  of  humanity  and  of  our  planet.  /LNHZLVH , KDYH QR DI¿OLDWLRQ ZKDW-­ soever  with  any  wind,  solar  or  any  other  energy  provider.

By  now,  most  climate  change  deniers  have  lost  all  credibility  and  have  fallen  silent,  because  the  evi-­ dence  is  overwhelming  that  climate  change  has  begun,  with  increasingly  IUHTXHQW VWRUPV GURXJKW ZLOG¿UHV and  hurricanes.

I  remain  sympathetic  toward  families  who  have  been  negatively  impacted  by  projects  like  Lowell  Mountain  and,  being  supportive  of  the  environment,  can  clearly  under-­

stand  why  they  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  want  large,  noisy  wind  turbines  towering  over  their  property.  I  also  appreciate  their  concerns  about  the  damage  done  to  the  land,  streams  and  habitats  adjacent  to  those  towers.  But  I  fear  that  some  people  are  failing  to  see  the  forest  for  the  trees.

A  decade  or  so  ago,  it  was  felt  by  most  experts  that  a  â&#x20AC;&#x153;business  as  usualâ&#x20AC;?  approach  (continued  burn-­ ing  of  fossil  fuels)  would  lead  to  runaway,  self-­perpetuating  climate  change  by  perhaps  2040  or  2050.  Today,  because  global  warming  is  proceeding  at  a  rate  faster  than  anyone  had  imagined,  it  is  now  felt  (See  Letter,  Page  5)

The  carrying  capacity  of  our  little  blue  planet  is  between  1  and  2  bil-­ lion  people  and  when  we  continue  to  exceed  our  carrying  capacity  at  an  accelerating  pace  (as  we  are  do-­ ing  now)  we  face  two  choices.  The  ¿UVW LV PDQDJHG GHFOLQH LQ ZKLFK we  all  agree  to  simplify  our  life-­ styles  and  agree  to  transition  rapidly  to  alternative  sources  of  energy  (wind,  solar,  geothermal,  etc.)  and  temporarily  continue  using  nuclear  energy  over  the  short  term;͞  em-­ phasizing  conservation,  increased  HI¿FLHQF\ UDWLRQLQJ RI WKH VPDOO amounts  of  fossil  fuels  we  continue  to  use  with  increasing  use  of  mass  transportation.

Would  this  be  easy  or  popular?  Absolutely  not.  It  would  seem  unac-­ ceptable  to  many  and  draconian  to  all  but  is  much  better  over  the  long Â

haul  than  the  other  alternative.  That  is,  if  we  continue  our  practice  of  burning  fossil  fuels,  we  will  eventu-­ ally  experience  the  sudden  and  total  collapse  of  civilization,  and  by  the  end  of  the  century  billions  (with  a  â&#x20AC;&#x153;bâ&#x20AC;?)  could  die.

This  sort  of  thing  has  happened  in  the  past  for  the  same  reason:  greed.  Exxon  Mobil  was  the  richest  com-­ pany  in  the  world  until  it  was  very  recently  surpassed  by  Apple.

Some  will  accuse  me  of  fear-­ mongering,  but  I  have  absolutely  no  reason  for  doing  this.  This  is  an  emergency  and  to  avert  disaster,  we  MUST  leave  the  remaining  fos-­ sil  fuels  in  the  ground.  Since  the  vast  majority  of  people  have  no  clue  about  the  situation  described  above,  I  urge  the  public  to  consider  this  when  reading  about  and  when  making  choices  regarding  the  devel-­ opment  of  wind  power  and  other  renewable  energy  sources. :LOOLDP . )L¿HOG 0LGGOHEXU\

Students of the Week from area High Schools Otter Valley Union High School Mount Abe Union High School Otter Valley Union High School proudly names Hannah Lones its Student of the Week. Hannah lives in Sudbury with her parents, John and Lisa Lones. Her younger brother is a sophomore at Otter Valley.

Hannah currently ranks ninth in her class and is a member of the National Honor Society. She is taking Advanced Placement Biology, Advanced Placement Literature, Advanced Placement European History and Advanced Placement Calculus. She was awarded the St. Michaelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Book Award for Academic Achievement with a Social Conscience during her junior year.

Hannah has played soccer all four years of high school. She was on the basketball team in grades 9 and 10 and on the crosscountry ski team in grade 11. She has also played on the tennis team since her sophomore year.

In grade 11, she was a member of the Prom Committee and Hannah  Lones the Foreign Language Club. She has been on the Fundraising O.V.U.H.S. Committee and in the Environmental Club since her junior year.

Hannah has spent the last two summers working at Branbury State Park as a park attendant. She will return this summer.

Outside of school Hannah enjoys Nordic skiing.

After high school, Hannah plans to go to college to become a physical therapist.

Director of Guidance Lori Robear says of Hannah, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have been impressed with her organizational abilities and her quiet self-advocacy. â&#x20AC;Ś She is a prepared and diligent student and a responsible and dedicated member of our VFKRRO FRPPXQLW\ ÂŤ ZKR ZLOO Ă&#x20AC;QG VXFFHVV LQ DQ\ FKDOOHQJLQJ DFDGHPLF DUHQD Âľ And Chris Fusco, English teacher, says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hannah is a responsible, thorough, organized, and hardworking student and a respectful young woman.â&#x20AC;?

The Otter Valley community congratulates Hannah on her success and wishes her the best in her future.

Mount Abraham Union High School is proud to name Seth Rael Jewett as its Student of the Week. Seth lives in New Haven with his family. He has a brother, Tyler Jewett, who is also a senior at Mount Abe; another brother, Brian Cook; and a sister, Megan Cook, who graduated from UVM. Seth has earned high or highest honors every semester. He earned Academic Excellence the past three years. He currently takes AP English, AP calculus, second-year physics and second-year chemistry.

Seth played football in grade 9 and basketball in grades 9 and 10.

He participated in the Math League his sophomore year.

Most of Sethâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work experience comes from growing up on the family farm, where there is always work to do: splitting and stacking ZRRG GRLQJ EDUQ FKRUHV XQORDGLQJ KD\ DQG ZRUNLQJ LQ WKH Ă&#x20AC;HOGV Outside of school Seth likes hanging out with friends, having ERQĂ&#x20AC;UHV DQG JRLQJ RXW WR HDW +H LV DOVR D KXJH IDQ RI 0RXQW Abraham athletics. At home, he just likes to relax, play video games Seth  Rael  Jewett or watch TV. M.A.U.H.S. About his high school experience, Seth says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have learned a lot, and a good deal of it is not due to my coursework. I have learned that being able to communicate in a social world is just as important as knowing tons of information. High school really helps develop your emotional intelligence, not just your intellect.

So my word of advice is not to focus 100 percent of yourself on either your friends or your schoolwork. It takes a healthy balance.

So far, Seth has been accepted to UVM, UNH, and the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. He is still waiting to hear from Merrimack College.

School counselor Alan Kamman says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seth has a quick wit, a dry sense of humor, and gets along with many different kinds of people. He has challenged himself to take rigorous classes in preparation for college, always earning excellent grades. He has taken two lab sciences for the past two years in addition to the highest-level math classes that we offer. I cannot think of another student who has done this in my tenure at Mt. Abe. Seth is a quality young man with much to offer the world.â&#x20AC;?

Everyone at Mount Abe wishes Seth the best in college and beyond.

Well Done, Students!

Monkey is 12 years old.

Pet of the W

He is an Abyssinian mix domestic shorthair with a moth on his head (he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always have a moth on his head). He is my FAVORITE kitty!

He meows until we meow back and sometimes continues his conversation for minutes on end. He used to be able to go outside, but now we live in an urban neighborhood where he could get hit by a car or get lost. We (my family and I) live in Burlington but my grandma (Catherine Nichols) lives in Middlebury and we visit her a lot!

Outdoor cats endanger wildlife VERMONT  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  A  new  study  from  scientists  at  the  Smithsonian  Conservation  Biology  Institute  and  the  U.S.  Fish  and  Wildlife  Service  raises  concerns  about  the  welfare  of  Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  wildlife  populations.  The  study  found  that  cats  are  the  single  greatest  cause  of  human-­caused  mortality  to  birds  and  mammals,  killing  an  estimated  aver-­ age  of  2.4  billion  birds  and  12.3  billion  mammals  each  year  in  the  United  States. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cats  pose  a  threat  to  Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  songbirds,  such  as  robins,  bluebirds  and  cardinals,â&#x20AC;?  said  Vermont  Fish  &  Wildlife  bird  biologist  John  Buck.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cats  may  even  restrict  the  statewide  recovery  of  some  rare  birds.  The  whip-­poor-­will,  which  is  a  state  threatened  species,  can  easily  fall  prey  to  roaming  cats  during  their  nesting  season.â&#x20AC;?

Cats  can  also  depress  populations  of  other  species  that  Vermonters  value  such  as  ducks,  rabbits  and  hares.  Biologists  in  the  prairie  pothole  region  of  the  north  central  United  States  post  fences  around  duck  nesting  areas  to  exclude  cats  and  other  predators  from  killing  the  ducklings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This  is  more  of  a  pervasive  problem  for  wildlife  than  many  people  realize,â&#x20AC;?  said  Fish  &  Wildlife  biologist  Steve  Parren.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  was  a  wakeup  call  for  my  family  when  our  friendly  tabby  deliv-­ ered  a  still  struggling  baby  bunny  to  our  doorstep.  We  realized  the  potential  consequences  of  allowing  our  cat  to  roam  outdoors.â&#x20AC;?

According  to  the  study,  feral  cats  DFFRXQW IRU D VLJQLÂżFDQW SRUWLRQ RI WKH deaths.  To  prevent  contributing  to  feral  cat  populations,  the  Fish  &  Wildlife  Department  recommends  that  pet  owners  spay  or  neuter  their  cats  to  prevent  unwanted  litters.  The  department  also  recommends  pet  owners  consider  keep-­ ing  indoor  cats,  both  for  the  protection  of  wildlife  and  for  the  health  of  their  pet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  lifespan  of  an  indoor  cat  is  roughly  double  that  of  an  outdoor  cat,â&#x20AC;?  said  Stowe  veterinarian  Dr.  Richard  Levine.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Infectious  disease  is  almost  nonexistent  in  indoor  cats,  whereas  outdoor  cats  are  at  risk  for  things  like  intestinal  parasites,  trauma  from  cars,  and  bites  and  scratches  from  other  cats.  Keeping  an  outdoor  cat  can  increase  the  veterinary  costs  for  pet-­ owners  by  hundreds  or  even  thousands  of  dollars  over  the  lifetime  of  the  animal.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;When  you  allow  your  cat  to  wander  freely  in  nature,  your  cat  becomes  a  part  of  the  food  chain,â&#x20AC;?  added  Parren.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sadly,  many  peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  pets  fall  prey  themselves  to  larger  predators  such  as  FR\RWHV ÂżVKHUV DQG IR[HV ´

PETS IN NEED HOMEWARD BOUND ANIMAL WELFARE CENTER Hi! Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m James, a handsome lovebird here with my mate Carley. We are quite the pair. We are gorgeous in color, make beautiful music, are very inquisitive and love to watch the activity around us.

We think people are fun to watch and we are curious about their activity. We especially like getting treats from them. We are young and would benefit from going to a home who is familiar with our species and who enjoys interacting with us. We are very social birds.

We enjoy our fun-filled cage with lots of perches and toys and a cool, cozy hut. Enrichment activities keep us engaged, active and happy.

If you are looking for a furry-less friend, please come meet us today.

What a handsome boy, right? Look at me â&#x20AC;&#x201C; just chilling out, enjoying my nice, cozy cat bed. My name is Ryder, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a super sweet and handsome fellow who would love to just warm your lap and your heart. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m friendly and mellow and I absolutely love being petted.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m one of those gentlemanly cats who does well with all other felines, canines and people of all ages. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really into people and being around them and receiving lots of love. I adore being snuggled!

If you are looking for a handsome companion with a sweet and charming personality, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m your boy!

Come meet me today â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a real sweetie!

ACSU (Continued  from  Page  1) perintendency  on  Wednesday  evening  after  a  day-­long  introduction  to  the  ACSU  community  and  a  50-­minute  interview  with  the  district  board.  That  panel,  chaired  by  Mark  Perrin  of  Middle-­ bury,  unanimously  endorsed  Burrows,  who  ac-­ cepted  the  job  that  evening.  The  ACSU  board  VHOHFWHG %XUURZV RYHU IHOORZ ¿QDOLVW :LQWRQ I.  Goodrich,  the  assistant  superintendent  of  the  South  Burlington  School  District.

Perrin  said  Burrows  has  tentatively  agreed  to  a  three-­year  contract,  although  the  salary  was  still  being  negotiated  late  last  week.  The  ACSU  had  previously  set  a  compensation  range  of  $112,000-­$117,000  for  a  job  in  which  Burrows  will  answer  to  nine  boards.  The  ACSU  includes  Middlebury  Union  high  and  middle  schools,  along  with  elementary  schools  in  Bridport,  Corn-­ wall,  Shoreham,  Salisbury,  Ripton,  Middlebury  and  Weybridge.

izing  in  language  arts  and  English.

Burrows  also  worked  as  a  language  arts  teach-­ er  at  Sisters  High  School  and  Middle  School  (2003-­2004),  and  as  a  teacher  and  designer  of  English  and  other  courses  at  universities  in  South  Korea,  Mexico,  Japan  and  India.

The  Connecticut  native  also  has  previous  work  experience  in  Vermont,  having  served  as  an  English  teacher  at  the  Intensive  English  Insti-­ tute  in  Brattleboro  from  January  through  August  of  1999.

During  his  interview  with  the  ACSU  board  on  Wednesday  evening,  Burrows  described  how  he  had  placed  his  own  imprint  on  Willamette  High  School  after  the  previous  principal  had  been  there  more  than  two  decades.  His  strategy  included  encouraging  business,  community  and  student  participation  in  programming  and  facil-­ ity  improvements  at  the  school.  Burrows  authors  a  blog  for  the  school  community  to  share  news  and  his  education  philosophies.

Burrows  acknowledged  the  issue  of  declin-­ ing  enrollments  and  increasing  school  budgets  within  ACSU  and  Vermont  in  general.  He  said  he  would  participate  actively  in  the  current  study  of  potential  consolidation  of  ACSU  governance  VWUXFWXUH WR UHGXFH ERDUG PHHWLQJV DQG ¿QG PRUH ways  for  district  schools  to  share  resources.

He  also  pledged  to  embrace  technology  to  help  students  learn  more  effectively.

Burrows  touted  a  philosophy  of  keeping  spe-­ cial  needs  students  within  mainstream  class-­ rooms  to  the  greatest  extent  possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  believe  in  inclusion,â&#x20AC;?  he  told  the  approxi-­ mately  20  ACSU  board  members  who  partici-­ pated  in  the  interviews.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Special  education  stu-­ dents  â&#x20AC;Ś  can  often  be  successful  in  class  with  the  supports  they  need.â&#x20AC;?

Leadership,  Burrows  said,  is  best  when  it Â

comes  from  the  ground  up,  rather  from  the  top  down,  stating  that  new  initiatives  are  best  imple-­ mented  when  affected  groups  are  invited  to  be  part  of  the  process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Leadership)  needs  to  be  bred,  I  think,  at  the  teacher  level,â&#x20AC;?  he  said,  adding,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  ownership  part  is  vital  â&#x20AC;Ś  Change  comes  very  slowly  if  you  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  have  that  ownership.â&#x20AC;?

Burrows  emphasized  how  impressed  he  was  with  the  district  and  its  schools.  He  said  he  spent  March  19  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  a  snow  day  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  driving  around  to  look  at  ACSU  schools. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  see,  in  this  supervisory  union,  the  makeup  of  a  community  that  puts  students  at  the  front  of  every  conversation  that  is  happening,â&#x20AC;?  he  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;People  are  really  connected,  committed  and  will  do  what  it  takes  to  make  sure  that  students  do  their  best.â&#x20AC;?

It  was  Burrowsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  stated  philosophy  of  put-­ WLQJ VWXGHQWV ÂżUVW WKDW KHOSHG HDUQ KLP WKH MRE according  to  Perrin.  Board  members  were  also  impressed  with  his  track  record  of  developing  relationships  with  school  associates  to  get  them  on  board  with  his  initiatives. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He  truly  wants  to  get  the  community  into  the  schools  and  foster  relationships,â&#x20AC;?  Perrin  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  think  it  is  a  really  exciting  time  for  (the  ACSU).â&#x20AC;?

The  next  few  months  will  be  busy  for  Bur-­ rows.  He  will  phase  out  his  career  at  Willamette  while  looking  for  a  Middlebury-­area  home  in  which  to  relocate  his  family,  which  includes  wife  Sonja  and  their  three  young  children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  would  like  to  stay  in  this  service  a  long  time  and  want  to  live  in  this  community,  too,â&#x20AC;?  Burrows  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  really  important  to  be  out  in  the  community,  especially  in  this  role.  I  want  to  go  to  as  many  functions  as  I  can  and  be  a  presence.â&#x20AC;?

Skunks  survive  winter  in  an  intermittent  torpor By  MEGH  ROUNDS In  summer,  you  always  know  when  a  striped  skunk  has  been  around.  But  in  winter,  these  animals  make  themselves  scarce,  hunkering  down  to  wait  out  the  onslaught  of  ice  and  snow.  Unlike  most  rodents  and  birds,  which  hoard  food  for  the  cold  months,  the  striped  skunk  will  have  spent  the  fall  eating  as  much  as  possible  so  it  can  stay  warm  during  mid-­winter  dormancy.  This  binge  eating  creates  thick  layers  of  fat  underneath  the  skin  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  a  winter  jacket,  of  sorts.  The  skunk  metabolizes  this  fat  during  its  dormant  rests,  though  at  a  much  slower  rate  than  in  summer.  Striped  skunks  use  different  den  sites  at  different  times  of  year,  so  their  winter  burrow  will  usually  not  be  the  same  place  where  they  raised  their  young.  While  capable  of  digging  their  own  winter  burrows,  skunks  are  more  inclined  to  seek  residency  in  spaces  that  belong  WR VRPHRQH HOVH )RU H[DPSOH WKH\ ÂżQG comfort  underneath  human-­built  porches  or  decks,  a  fact  that  some  of  us  (and  our  noses)  may  be  all-­too-­familiar  with.  Those  skunks  that  live  away  from  residential  areas  will  often  commandeer  burrows  dug  and  deserted  by  other  outdoor  dwellers,  such  as  woodchucks  or  foxes.

Once  colder  temperatures  set  in,  a  skunk  will  prepare  its  den  by  blocking  off  the  entrance  to  its  burrow  with  leaves  and  grass  to  keep  the  cold  air  out.  It  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  uncommon  for  striped  skunks  to  burrow  with  each  other  for  extra  warmth  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  these  cohabitating  skunks  have  the  advantage  of  social  thermoregulation,  where  they  use  each  other  to  stay  warm.  Males  sometimes  den  communally  during  winter,  but  are  not  tolerant  of  each  other  during  other  seasons.

Winter  denning  season  in  Vermont  and  New  Hampshire  typically  runs  from  November  through  March,  but  this  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  to Â

The

say  that  skunks  arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  active  during  winter.  Settled  into  its  winter  home,  the  striped  skunk  becomes  dormant,  but  does  not  enter  a  full  state  of  hibernation.  Instead,  skunks  enter  a  state  of  torpor  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  a  sort  of  deep  sleep  from  which  they  awaken  from  time  WR WLPH 'XULQJ WRUSRU ZKLFK LV LQĂ&#x20AC;XHQFHG by  the  temperature  and  food  availability,  their  body  temperatures  can  drop  20  degrees  and  their  metabolism  slows.

As  the  season  changes  from  winter  to  spring,  skunks  will  emerge  and  seek  a  mate.  Striped  skunks  are  a  polygamous  species  and  a  male  will  take  multiple  mates  over  the  course  of  late  February  through  April;͞  a  female  will  only  mate  once.  After  breeding,  both  males  and  females  seek  to  rebuild  fat  reserves,  having  lost,  on  average,  about  30  percent  of  their  body  weight  during  winter.  Females  will  establish  maternity  dens,  sometimes  communally.  Males  spend  the  warm  months  alone.

The  arrival  of  spring  brings  not  only  warmer  weather,  but  new  food  sources.  The  omnivorous  skunk  goes  from  a  lean  winter  diet  of  carrion,  fruit  and  seeds  to  a  summer  diet  rich  in  insects,  small  mammals  and  sometimes  our  trash.  As  bee  keepers  are  well  aware,  skunks  have  a  fondness  for  bees  and  will  consume  honey,  larvae  and  adults.
