The deer population is as bad as the homeless population. They are a danger to humans and we endanger the deer. They hiss at me when I talk my dog for a walk to the point that I fear the deer will attack me. I am constantly having to watch for deer and they have literally ran right into my car. Deer are not supposed to live in a city so why are they in ours. They are not friendly nor are they safe for the residents. Just like the homeless people. This city has become more dangerous than I could have ever imagined and I have lived here for 30 years. I am very disappointed in the city and the way its progressing. Columbus has more job opportunities than Bloomington which is sad.

It appears that a bird has dropped a dead squirrel in our lawn next to our steps at 508 N. Lincoln Street and is causing a very foul smell in the area. We were wondering if the town could help in removal of the dead animal.

To City of Bloomington, I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out on behalf of myself, my roommates, and our neighbors regarding a growing concern in our neighborhood. Every evening, around 4:00 p.m. and continuing through the night, we experience an influx of hundreds of crows flocking to our street and surrounding area. This results in a significant accumulation of bird droppings on our cars, as well as on nearby properties. The volume of droppings has become so excessive that it poses a risk to residents walking or entering their vehicles, as the droppings frequently land on people and properties. While I understand this may sound unusual, the situation has persisted for over two weeks, and we are becoming increasingly concerned about the potential health implications. The sheer volume of droppings is difficult to understate, and we believe it could lead to further issues if left unaddressed. The attached PDF includes proof of others cars as well as a photo of just one area of trees where the crows sit for hours. We would greatly appreciate any assistance or guidance on how this matter can be resolved, as we feel it is beginning to impact our quality of life. Thank you for your time and attention to this issue. We look forward to your response.

There is a dead possum on High Street between Arden and Queens Way. Last time I called Animal Control concerning a similar issue no one came to assist, so I am hopeful that this is a better way to get this addressed.

In Hoosier Acres (E Adair Ln, S Meadowbrook Dr, etc.) there have been several sightings of Coyotes. There is at least one pair with one of the animals appearing to have an injured hind leg. The animals walk by homes and people during daylight without too much fear.

There are multiple birds nests on the stairs on either side of the building. There’s one on the side facing the apartment complex and two on the side facing LaserLite. One of the birds nests has eggs in it. I’m worried because there are residents with animals and the birds nests aren’t safe sitting out on the steps.

Several coyotes that have started to make a home in the wooded area and field behind where I live. They have been starting to coming into the neighborhood Arbor Ridge at all different times. My neighbor had an encounter with one while walking her dog. It wasn’t scared of her and became very territorial. Usually coyotes in this area move on but never have seen them so consistently in the area I live especially leaving the field and coming into our neighborhood. There a lot of elderly folks with dogs and this could become dangerous if no one intervenes.
