I watched the videos on facebook about the encampment from Last Fall and Winter. I saw a great Pry dog watching the drone as it flew over in the Drone footage. There were 3 Pry dogs, 2 males and one female in one tent. Both a male and female were adopted. One male remained at the Yreka Animal Control in April 2024 and we adopted Kasper Wyoming. He is doing well. Two people died when they did not seek shelter last December 2023/January 2024. Are we about to repeat all the tragedy from last Fall and Winter again?
