But the ones who are good at it use sophisticated communications equipment, night-vision sights on their guns, and small, strong flashlights to stun wild pigs or deer into standing still. This is called \"spotlighting.\" Some poachers will black out their brake lights, run on roads without headlights, and use other ingenious ways to keep a low profile while they illegally hunt wild animals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Game warden is one of the most dangerous law enforcement jobs around-- after all, you're going into a remote area, with no backup, to confront people who are carrying guns and knives.

Last thing I found: The newest high-tech method of tracking down poachers is actually pretty low-tech. Dogs. \u003ca href=\"http://www.dfg.ca.gov/enforcement/K9/\">A new canine program helps game wardens find illegal animal kills\u003c/a>. Not surprisingly, poachers hide their contraband, and it's not easy for game wardens to find it. Lieutenant Kristie Wurster is stationed in Alpine County, near Placerville.

But the ones who are good at it use sophisticated communications equipment, night-vision sights on their guns, and small, strong flashlights to stun wild pigs or deer into standing still. This is called \"spotlighting.\" Some poachers will black out their brake lights, run on roads without headlights, and use other ingenious ways to keep a low profile while they illegally hunt wild animals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Would any urban police officer do that? There is a dearth of game wardens in California, partly due to decades of budget cuts. Last thing I found: The newest high-tech method of tracking down poachers is actually pretty low-tech. Dogs. \u003ca href=\"http://www.dfg.ca.gov/enforcement/K9/\">A new canine program helps game wardens find illegal animal kills\u003c/a>. Not surprisingly, poachers hide their contraband, and it's not easy for game wardens to find it. Lieutenant Kristie Wurster is stationed in Alpine County, near Placerville. She’s one of 18 wardens in the canine-training program, and she uses her dog Wrigley to sniff out illegal fishing and hunting. \u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2008/06/inspection1.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/span>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wurster estimates the dog saves about 800 man-hours of work a year. \"We are so small in numbers and we just tip the iceberg of how much poaching is going on,\" she says. \"That’s why I’m so excited about the program, to have another set of eyes and ears – and nose – to be able to detect the issues.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"left\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/audio/wildlife-csi\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/images/radio_icon_light.gif\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/audio/wildlife-csi\">Listen to the \"Wildlife CSI\" Radio report\u003c/a> online, and check out our \u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/kqedquest/sets/72157605848722214/\">photo set on Flickr\u003c/a> which includes: photos of a game warden at work tracking poachers in the foothills of southern Monterey County, as well as deer, boar, abalone and other illegally killed animals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> 38.570226 -121.327390\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The risk of an adverse side effect is incredibly small. For example, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/00046738.htm\">risk for anaphylaxis\u003c/a> from the Hepatitis B Virus vaccination is around 1 in 600,000. This is about the same risk as being struck by lightning (1 in 700,000).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, the article wasn't talking about known risks.

Of course, just because two things happen to occur at the same time, this does not mean they are causally linked. For example, the increase in global temperature is not related to the decrease in the world's populations of pirates (despite what the \u003ca href=\"http://www.venganza.org/about/open-letter/\">Pastafarians\u003c/a> say).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So how could an increased number of vaccinations cause an increase in the number of cases of autism? I have seen two ideas put forth. The first is that thimerosal is to blame. The second is that there are so many vaccinations now that we are stressing out the body's immune system. Most likely neither idea is valid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thimerosal is a mercury-based preservative that used to be used in vaccines. Even though there haven't been any good studies on the effects of thimerosal on brain development, everyone knows mercury is bad for the brain. So the idea behind thimerosal makes some sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in 2001, vaccine manufacturers decided to eliminate thimerosal from their vaccines. We would predict, then, that cases of autism should go down significantly if thimerosal was linked to autism. They haven't. In fact, in one \u003ca href=\"http://www.webmd.com/brain/autism/news/20080107/thimerosal-down-but-autism-rising\">California study\u003c/a>, cases have continued to climb. So thimerosal is most likely not to blame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another point that has been made is that there are so many vaccines now that we are stressing out our bodies' immune systems. Again, this concern is unfounded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vaccines are injections of viral proteins. Our bodies see the proteins and raise antibodies to them. Then when a virus invades, we have antibodies that recognize the virus and target it for destruction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is the number of viral proteins that matter in terms of taxing the body's immune system and not the number of vaccinations. All of the current vaccines put together do not have as many viral proteins as the old smallpox vaccine (150 vs. 200). So the number of vaccines is unlikely to be the issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What all of this means is that vaccines are probably not responsible for the significant increase in the number of cases of autism. What is responsible? No one knows for sure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It may be that the rise just comes from all of us recognizing the symptoms more. Or it could be due to some cause we don't know about or understand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What we do know is that vaccines save many lives. I assume no one wants to go back to the early 20th century when polio epidemics swept the country. For example, 2,500 cases of \u003ca title=\"polio\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polio\" target=\"_blank\">polio\u003c/a> ended up at one Los Angeles hospital between May and November of 1934. And in 1952, the U.S. had 21,000 cases of paralytic polio.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We can prevent this sort of thing from happening by making sure everyone is vaccinated. And yet there are people who choose to hide behind the people who take the miniscule risk of getting vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Is this a matter of free choice? Should parents be allowed to opt out of vaccinating their children even if it risks society at large?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One idea, I suppose, is to have people who choose not to be vaccinated to sign a waiver saying they accept full responsibility for their actions. In practice this would mean that health insurance and the government would not be responsible for their children's health care bills if they become ill with one of the diseases they refused to be vaccinated against.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if your infant, grandma, or immuno-suppressed cousin came down with a disease these folks refused to be vaccinated against, then you could sue the un-vaccinated for damages.

This park is a favorite spot for locals, but is also home to some amazing wildlife. With the help of East Bay Regional Parks naturalist Meg Platt, we put together a science hike where you can see some of the amazing things the park has to offer.

But it's important for hikers and park users to give this species plenty of space, especially during mating season. Make sure to keep dogs out of the park's ponds. Luckily, the East Bay Regional Parks district puts together programs for the public so everyone can safely discover this amazing species.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Check out the \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/quest/exploration/view/944\">interactive map of the Briones exploration\u003c/a> online, and watch our \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/quest/television/view/951\">audio slide show\u003c/a> about California Newts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"left\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/icon_lsommer.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Lauren Sommer\u003c/strong> is an Associate Media Producer for QUEST.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n\u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

California Newt\">\u003c/a>\u003c/span>One of the most unique species found in Briones Regional Park is the California Newt (\u003cem>Taricha torosa\u003c/em>). With a brown dorsal and bright orange belly, they look almost exactly the same as another amphibian found in the park, the rough-skinned newt (\u003cem>Taricha granulosa\u003c/em>). Their coloring isn't just for decoration. California newts are actually poisonous. They contain tetrodotoxin, or TTX, the same neurotoxin found in pufferfish. The toxin acts as a deterrent against predators, but recently, scientists discovered that one predator, the garter snake, had found an advantage. Charles T. Hanifin, an evolutionary biologist at Stanford, and colleagues studied 20,000 garter snakes and 500 newts in habitats along the Pacific Coast. They discovered in four areas, garter snakes had developed a resistance to the newts' poison. One of the areas is Briones Reservoir, directly next to Briones Regional Park. This toxic arms race between species is known as \"co-evolution.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Newt Migration\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/kqedquest/2435084928/\" title=\"2a.

Oaks\">\u003c/a>\u003c/span>As amphibians, California newts spend their lives both on land and in the water. Every year, beginning in December or January, the newts leave their dwellings on land and make a migration to ponds or bodies of water for mating season. During this time of year, newts can be seen on trails and roads in many parks throughout the East Bay. In fact, South Park drive in Tilden Regional Park is closed each year during newt mating season. Local rangers found that so many newts were being crushed by cars while migrating, they recommended closing the road between November and April.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Newt Love\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/kqedquest/2435012390/\" title=\"8e.

Newt Egg Cluster\">\u003c/a>\u003c/span>Once they arrive in the ponds, the newts mate and females lay their eggs in a tight ball. It may seems surprising that newts spend this part of their lives in stock ponds - ponds that were created for and are used by cattle. In a recent study though, biologists found that stock ponds are actually more ideal habitats for some amphibians like tiger salamanders, also found in East Bay parks. The cattle keep dense brush from forming on the edges of the ponds, which can be difficult for the small salamanders to get through. Cattle also stir up the pond waters, making them murkier. This can actually protect young salamanders and newts, often preyed upon by giant water bugs (also known as toe-biters). The muddy water provides useful cover for the larval amphibians.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Park's History\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the 1800's, most of Briones was working ranchland. In 1829, Felipe Briones built a homestead in Briones on the cattle ranch known as Rancho Boca de la Canada del Pinole. When Briones was killed in 1840, and his widow, Maria Manuela Valencia Briones, petitioned California Governor Alvarado for a land grant in her name. California was then part of Mexico, and when it became a state, Maria Briones' grant was called into question. The US Supreme Court finally upheld her grant in 1860.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the subsequent decades, Briones continued as a ranch under several owners who developed orchards and cultivated fruit, as much of Contra Costa County was used in that time. Around the turn of the century, the People's Water Company (later acquired by the East Bay Municipal Utility District) purchased Briones. The nearby San Pablo Dam was constructed in 1923. The East Bay Regional Parks District later acquired Briones and opened the park in 1967. Even today, parts of Briones are still used by cattle herds for grazing. With summer heat and dry grasses, fire danger is a major concern for the park district. Through managed grazing with both cattle and goats, park managers are able to keep this fuel load down.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Hiking Tips\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>With its rolling hills and narrow creeks, Briones Regional Park is nestled in the East Bay Hills. The park is home to a broad range of wildlife, from squirrels and dear, to turkey vultures, red-tailed hawks and California Newts. Hikes should also be aware of rattlesnakes and the occasional mountain lion. There are six species of native oak trees in the park, from Valley Oaks to the more rare Blue Oaks. As a transitional area, Briones is home to species from both the California coastal habitats and the interior habitats of the Central Valley and Sierra foothills.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Events in Briones Regional Park\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The East Bay Regional Park District offers a number of activities in Briones Regional Park and many other nearby parks. \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/briones\">Check out their website for guided hikes, events, and classes\u003c/a> to sharpen your outdoor skills.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Learn More About Wildlife\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If you're interested in learning more about the wildlife of the East Bay, the Tilden Nature Area programs offers many options in Berkeley's \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/tilden\" target=\"_blank\">Tilden Regional Park\u003c/a>.

Their coloring isn't just for decoration. California newts are actually poisonous. They contain tetrodotoxin, or TTX, the same neurotoxin found in pufferfish. The toxin acts as a deterrent against predators, but recently, scientists discovered that one predator, the garter snake, had found an advantage. Charles T. Hanifin, an evolutionary biologist at Stanford, and colleagues studied 20,000 garter snakes and 500 newts in habitats along the Pacific Coast. They discovered in four areas, garter snakes had developed a resistance to the newts' poison. One of the areas is Briones Reservoir, directly next to Briones Regional Park. This toxic arms race between species is known as \"co-evolution.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Newt Migration\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/kqedquest/2435084928/\" title=\"2a.

Oaks\">\u003c/a>\u003c/span>As amphibians, California newts spend their lives both on land and in the water. Every year, beginning in December or January, the newts leave their dwellings on land and make a migration to ponds or bodies of water for mating season. During this time of year, newts can be seen on trails and roads in many parks throughout the East Bay. In fact, South Park drive in Tilden Regional Park is closed each year during newt mating season. Local rangers found that so many newts were being crushed by cars while migrating, they recommended closing the road between November and April.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Newt Love\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/kqedquest/2435012390/\" title=\"8e.

Newt Egg Cluster\">\u003c/a>\u003c/span>Once they arrive in the ponds, the newts mate and females lay their eggs in a tight ball. It may seems surprising that newts spend this part of their lives in stock ponds - ponds that were created for and are used by cattle. In a recent study though, biologists found that stock ponds are actually more ideal habitats for some amphibians like tiger salamanders, also found in East Bay parks. The cattle keep dense brush from forming on the edges of the ponds, which can be difficult for the small salamanders to get through. Cattle also stir up the pond waters, making them murkier. This can actually protect young salamanders and newts, often preyed upon by giant water bugs (also known as toe-biters). The muddy water provides useful cover for the larval amphibians.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Park's History\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the 1800's, most of Briones was working ranchland. In 1829, Felipe Briones built a homestead in Briones on the cattle ranch known as Rancho Boca de la Canada del Pinole. When Briones was killed in 1840, and his widow, Maria Manuela Valencia Briones, petitioned California Governor Alvarado for a land grant in her name. California was then part of Mexico, and when it became a state, Maria Briones' grant was called into question. The US Supreme Court finally upheld her grant in 1860.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the subsequent decades, Briones continued as a ranch under several owners who developed orchards and cultivated fruit, as much of Contra Costa County was used in that time. Around the turn of the century, the People's Water Company (later acquired by the East Bay Municipal Utility District) purchased Briones. The nearby San Pablo Dam was constructed in 1923. The East Bay Regional Parks District later acquired Briones and opened the park in 1967. Even today, parts of Briones are still used by cattle herds for grazing. With summer heat and dry grasses, fire danger is a major concern for the park district. Through managed grazing with both cattle and goats, park managers are able to keep this fuel load down.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Hiking Tips\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>With its rolling hills and narrow creeks, Briones Regional Park is nestled in the East Bay Hills. The park is home to a broad range of wildlife, from squirrels and dear, to turkey vultures, red-tailed hawks and California Newts. Hikes should also be aware of rattlesnakes and the occasional mountain lion. There are six species of native oak trees in the park, from Valley Oaks to the more rare Blue Oaks. As a transitional area, Briones is home to species from both the California coastal habitats and the interior habitats of the Central Valley and Sierra foothills.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Events in Briones Regional Park\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The East Bay Regional Park District offers a number of activities in Briones Regional Park and many other nearby parks. \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/briones\">Check out their website for guided hikes, events, and classes\u003c/a> to sharpen your outdoor skills.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Learn More About Wildlife\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If you're interested in learning more about the wildlife of the East Bay, the Tilden Nature Area programs offers many options in Berkeley's \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/tilden\" target=\"_blank\">Tilden Regional Park\u003c/a>.

They are the perfect breakfast or power-ball snack. I also love the idea of purchasing eggs from farms that raise them with kindness and humanity, and that has proven a bit challenging. There are many terms to decipher, but armed with correct information, we can all help chickens and still enjoy those eggs. The following chart gives information about a few local farms and is thanks to my favorite place to grocery shop, \u003ca href=\"http://www.rainbow.coop/\">Rainbow Grocery\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>

Battery caged hens are crammed as many as six chickens into a cage at a time, leaving each bird with less personal space than a sheet of ordinary notebook paper. Critics say the battery system causes the spread of disease, requires the painful de-beaking of birds, and restricts natural bird behaviors, such as dusting or nesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Have Access to Outside\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Free Range\" and \"Free Roaming\" are terms that bring to mind idyllic barnyard scenes. These labels, which are regulated by the USDA, may be used by a producer if their hens are allowed some access to the outdoors. This does not guarantee constant access, nor is there any specification of the size of the outdoor area (which is, of course, a penned area, not a range).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Beaks Clipped\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also known as debeaking, or beak trimming, is a process by which parts of the \u003ca title=\"Beak\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beak\">beak\u003c/a> of a \u003ca title=\"Chicken\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken\">chicken\u003c/a> or \u003ca title=\"Turkey (bird)\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkey_%28bird%29\">turkey\u003c/a> are trimmed. Many variations of debeaking are used. Most commonly, the beak is shortened permanently, with the lower beak somewhat longer than the upper beak. The goal of this is to reduce cannibalism in stressed-out bird populations, such as in crowded egg-laying hen houses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Forced Molted\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When light and temperature are manipulated so hens lay eggs more than normal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Omega-3 enriched\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omega-3 is a polyunsaturated fatty acid considered crucial by some for developing brains and preventing heart disease and depression.
