All about animals
This issue pays tribute to some awesome animals. It also reminds us to proceed with caution around our furry friends.
April 13-19 marks National Dog Bite Prevention Week. Scouts and Scouters should use this week as a reminder that even friendly dogs can pose risks. Fortunately, we’ve got tips for your Scouts to help keep the dogs in your life at best-friend status.
Bugs, bug off!
Check out advice from the Gear Guy and the feature “DON’T BUG ME”! They break down the risks posed by ticks, chiggers and mosquitoes, explaining how to avoid them and how to treat their bites and stings. Learn why repellents are crucial, how to remove a tick properly and why getting rid of standing water can help prevent mosquito infestations. It’s all there and more in the latest issue.
