In an effort to better track the growing wolf population in Washington, you can now report a wolf sighting on-line.This week, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife launched its new online reporting system. 

WDFW managers will use the information generated from the new site to better track new packs and pups in the region. Once that information is compiled, managers will try to radio collar the animals to better track their movements.

According to the WDFW, there are five documented wolf packs in Washington, three of those packs have been spotted and tracked in Stevens and Pend Oreille counties.

The gray wolf is an endangered species, but the animal can be removed off the list once there are at least 18 breeding pairs for three consecutive years in a wolf recovery region.

“Our state’s wolf-management efforts depend on knowing how many wolves are here, where they are, and where they’re going,”  said Donny Martorello, WDFW.  “By filing reports on wolf activities, the public can help us direct our monitoring efforts."

We were browsing the internet this morning and by that we mean reading Twitter and that's when we found a cool blog.

Spokane County Fire District 9 writes about fire prevention. The blog itself is called "Fire 9 Prevention". It's not quite the style you're thinking like the typical consumer report of replacing smoke detector batteries and electrical plugs.

The district's deputy fire chief, Doug Bleeker, is putting a creative spin on fire prevention and not going to lie, he's making it really fun to read out. In one blog post from late February, he explores the history of the toaster. Why? Because in the final paragraph he says to unplug it while you're not toasting anything.

Bleeker also talks about "a tale of two fires" and how the outcomes were dictated by their fire sprinklers, or not having one.

Anyway, we've added this to our daily reading material. Judging from the most recent articles, it's updated at least once a week. 

Today till 6pm you can get your car or truck ready for Spring.

Chris Clark is donating all the monies from these oil changes and vehicle inspections to the Greater Spokane County Meals on Wheels.

Currently about 15 new seniors each week are requesting help from the Meals on Wheels program and that means another volunteer has to be found.

SO these fundraisers are huge,  not only raise money but to spread the word and raise awarness.

If your car is close to needing that oil change get it done today at Clark's Automotive at 16010 E. Sprague. Your donation goes along way in the fight to end hunger and assist those who are homebound.
