Here Kitty, Kitty... (Bobcat trapping endangers desert wildlife)

Categories:  News Culture

Thumb_bobcat_trap_b It’s not widely known among desert wildlife lovers that they themselves may sometimes be one of the biggest threats to the wildlife they love.

Thumb_jacklyonsblogweb 
I caught up with a busy Gary Daigneault (via telephone), longtime past president of Theatre 29’s board of directors and the driving creative force behind the success of the Twentynine Palms community theatre from its inception in 1999. Original founders John (deceased) and Carol Calveri (now living in Colorado) have handed over the reins of operation to Brian and Patti Tabeling, and Daigneault, all of whom are still very much connected with the theatre.
