Spelled my name wrong twice on my fishing licenses. Had my driver's license and still spelled it wrong.

Inland fisheries and wildlife need to know who they work for .I'm sick and tired of how rude they have become. I truly feel I can not even call them without them acting put out its redicoulous. They have literally hung up on me and refused to answer there phones when I've called back. This place need a cleaning..

I live in southern Maine in Wells, near the beaches and I have been hearing reports about stop feeding the birds because of an outbreak of sallminalla poisioning... how true is this ? And also what to do after taking down bird feeders , to the area

laurie danforth | Aug 24, 2021
Steve Tuttle | Aug 24, 2021

The outbreak is linked to free range "Backyard" chickens, and not to wild birds. As long as your feeders are off the ground, it's all good.
