The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission will consider recommendations for a 2025 mountain lion hunting season at its June 21 meeting in Ogallala.

The meeting begins at 8 a.m. Mountain time at the Petrified Wood Gallery, 418 E. 1st&nbsp;St.

For the first time, a hunting season will be proposed for mountain lions in the Wildcat Hills. If approved, a Wildcat Hills Unit will be created, joining the existing Pine Ridge Unit and Niobrara Unit as areas that would allow mountain lion harvest.

The Wildcat Hills Unit would encompass parts of Scotts Bluff, Morrill, Cheyenne, Garden, Kimball, and Banner counties. The objective for the unit is to provide a harvest opportunity for hunters that will keep the lion population resilient while slightly reducing their numbers.

Game and Parks’ genetic surveys in 2023 estimate there are 70 mountain lions in the Pine Ridge, up from the last estimate of 33 in 2021. Surveys that will allow population estimates for the Niobrara and Wildcat Hills are presently being conducted. Twenty-seven mountain lions were documented in the Niobrara Valley during 2023, and 24 were documented in the Wildcat Hills.

Season 1 in all three units would take place Jan. 2, 2025, through the end of February. The season would end immediately in a unit if the annual harvest limit or female sub-limit were reached. The Pine Ridge limit would be 12 mountain lions with a sub-limit of six females, the Niobrara limit would be four mountain lions with a two female sub-limit, and the Wildcat Hills limit would be three mountain lions with a two female sub-limit.

Up to 960 permits could be issued by lottery in the Pine Ridge Unit, up to 320 permits in the Niobrara Unit, and up to 240 permits in the Wildcat Hills Unit. Permits are available to residents only. An auxiliary season that allows the use of dogs would be March 15 through the end of March if the annual harvest limit or female sub-limit were not reached during Season 1 in any unit. A number of permits equal to the number of lions remaining in the limit would be issued by lottery to unsuccessful permit holders from that unit who apply for the auxiliary season.

In other business, commissioners will consider changes to park regulations that would:

Commissioners also will consider these fishing regulation changes:

In addition, there will be staff recommendations to:

Staff also will present the results of a survey on Lake McConaughy and Lake Ogallala, a report on Lake McConaughy, and an update on outreach efforts in west-central Nebraska.

 <li>Create a $5 Active-Duty Military vehicle park entry permit for active-duty military personnel stationed in Nebraska. The permit would be for vehicles registered in or out of the state and would be available only as an annual permit.</li><li>Allow the director of Game and Parks to authorize the replacement of any Nebraska Resident Disabled American Veteran lifetime permit.</li><li>Update language for state recreation trails, including encroachments on right-of ways.</li><li>Allow the use of Class I electronic bikes in state parks, state historical parks, state recreation areas and state recreation trails on designated trails unless otherwise posted. Class II and Class III e-bikes would be permitted as posted.</li>
 </ul>Commissioners also will consider these fishing regulation changes:<ul>
 <li>The removal of the no-live-baitfish restriction will be recommended for Lake Wanahoo.</li><li>At Two Rivers State Recreation Area Lake No. 5, also known as the trout lake, a recommendation would shorten the time a trout tag is required to fish the lake by one month. It also would remove the tag display requirement and allow anglers to release any caught trout.</li>
 </ul>In addition, there will be staff recommendations to:<ul>
 <li>approve the transfer of approximately 88 acres of land in Hall County adjacent to Mormon Island SRA from the Federal Highway Administration to Game and Parks; and</li><li>approve permitting of hunting in some state parks and state historical parks for 2024 seasons.</li>

North Platte, Ne - March 7 &amp; 8 of 2024 will be one the Kuhlmann family will remember for a long time. The night of March 7 was the evening that the area received a record snow of over 15 inches, 14.6 inches of that came over a 6-hour period, some portions of the area received closer to 20 inches of snow. At the KJ's Boots &amp; Western Wear store at the intersection of I-80 and the Hershey/Dickens road south of Hershey, all the snow that fell caused the business's roof to fail. Connie Kuhlmann (owner) said her husband Kevin had gone to the store on the afternoon of March 8 to clear their parking lot and scoop the walk when he went into the store around 5pm and realized part of the roof had collapsed.

A phone call went out from Kuhlmann at the time to friends and family, to rush to the store and try to get the inventory out of the building before a larger problem developed. Within an hour of the call, a dozen people showed up to help with trailers, moving dollies and manpower. Later a Facebook post for help went out on the local Hershey page, and within 15 minutes much of the community of Hershey came to the aide of the Kuhlmanns.

(POST PODCAST with Connie Kuhlmann, sponsored by <a href="http://www.npkubota.com">North Platte Kubota</a>)

Nearly 3 months later, KJ's has reopened in North Platte in the old Sun-Mart building, now home to New Life Church, MEGA Gymnastics and CMH Interiors. Plans are still in the air for the old KJ's building in Hershey, but Connie Kuhlmann says "we hope to reopen in Hershey, but in the meantime North Platte has become our new home."

KJ's opened in North Platte on June 1, and is running a 20% off special through June 15th during the Buffalo Bill Rodeo, part of Nebraskaland Days. Store Hours 9m-6pm Monday-Saturday, 1-4pm on Sundays.&nbsp;

Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department

Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department (SWNPHD) would like to encourage everyone to take precautions to not get sick due to the heat this summer. Some simple precautions include drinking enough water, never leaving children or pets in cars, and signing up for heat alerts.

“Hundreds of people suffer from heat related illnesses and emergencies each year,” explains Kay Schmidt, Emergency Response Coordinator at SWNPHD. “You can avoid problems by knowing when there are going to be extra hot days.” The National Weather Service (NWS) uses several methods for calculating possible extreme temperatures and issues their official heat watches, warnings, and advisories. Sign up for alerts through the FEMA app or see the NWS website at weather.gov.

A young child’s body does not adapt to rising temperatures as effectively as an adult. A child’s temperature may rise 3 to 5 times faster than an adult, which makes any exposure to extreme heat more dangerous for them. Some other groups that are more vulnerable to heat-related emergencies are individuals with chronic illness, older adults, and pregnant women. Older adults or people with chronic diseases often take medications that cause problems if there is increased body temperature or extreme heat exposure.

Pets are also very vulnerable to hyperthermia (overheating) as they can only regulate heat through panting and small sweat glands on the pads of the paws. A temperature of 104 degrees puts your pets at risk of possible organ damage or death.

Heat-related emergencies can be prevented. Children, people with disabilities, and pets should never be left in a car. Temperatures can quickly rise as high as 50 degrees warmer than the outside air temperature. Within 10 minutes the inside temperature of a vehicle could reach a potentially fatal 109 degrees on a 90-degree day.

This summer as the weather becomes warmer you can use the following recommendations to help keep you, your family, and your pets safe:

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stay in an air-conditioned indoor location as much as you can.

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Drink plenty of fluids even if you don’t feel thirsty.

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Schedule outdoor activities carefully.

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wear loose, lightweight, light-colored clothing and sunscreen.

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pace yourself if you choose to be active outside and take breaks often.

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Take cool showers or baths to cool down.

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Check on friends or neighbors and have someone do the same for you.

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Never leave children or pets in cars.

•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Check the local news or apps for heat alerts and safety updates.

The Hot Sheets: June 11th, 2024

June 10, 2024&nbsp;— As World Blood Donor Day approaches on June 14, the American Red Cross stresses that blood and platelet donors are critically needed right now to combat a drastic shortfall in donations over the last several weeks.&nbsp;Donors of all blood types are needed, especially those with type O blood and donors giving platelets.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Record-breaking summer travel and severe weather conditions are expected to persist all season long, which may prevent donors from being able to give. When fewer people donate, less blood is available for hospital patients.&nbsp;Make a blood or platelet donation a priority this summer. Book a time to give now by visiting RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS or by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App.&nbsp;&nbsp;

June 14 is World Blood Donor Day, a day meant to raise awareness of the need for a safe, diverse and stable blood supply, and to recognize volunteer blood donors. This is the perfect time to give, especially for those who haven’t given in a while, or who have never given before.

Those who come to give June 10-30, 2024, will get a $15 e-gift card to a merchant of choice. See&nbsp;<a href="https://u7061146.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=u001.gqh-2BaxUzlo7XKIuSly0rC-2BjlOKn5gyoDa2kcQadnKwq4nHaJIVBj6JyDTQaACstCXFRe2xo8jsuiARShV-2BlSOjrmaeuFAzUBSJyfkTodRCQ-3DsjvK_zEOLHw6mHPpUboszb4lxzn-2FWfgiGZZljUWwyilPPfcrXXfmVBzHnavjtNkTOYjqEx5eOh2mcWHIGY492PIfsWsyGWhoO2mGEzQUR6nhbB8CykBOZZWoxvATOmu6Yp5P5fZIOkrmI-2FaeT7nimUvsRW-2BDsZP7qCI-2BmovLE87Sh7q0qFKr7GcpCzT-2F1f4vK3oZoR16EZ37dH-2FzmkiDZhW0JoyUjCr6nt3Y9Q4Kf7jZEGxBR-2FgyxG1V1TzU9h2F9-2B1wPVMI1mKCpTlX9baKdOi-2FdzK0Q6VWwxdENOC4ElwA0DworbP0Temh1FQ1uP5m9fTTMMnguo9TZgqPp4k8e3veRVPC4LUVLsZghGoafxtYGzho-3D" target="_blank">RedCrossBlood.org/DoGood</a>&nbsp;for details.

American Red CrossJune 10, 2024&nbsp;— As World Blood Donor Day approaches on June 14, the American Red Cross stresses that blood and platelet donors are critically needed right now to combat a drastic shortfall in donations over the last several weeks.&nbsp;Donors of all blood types are needed, especially those with type O blood and donors giving platelets.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Record-breaking summer travel and severe weather conditions are expected to persist all season long, which may prevent donors from being able to give. When fewer people donate, less blood is available for hospital patients.&nbsp;Make a blood or platelet donation a priority this summer. Book a time to give now by visiting RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS or by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App.&nbsp;&nbsp;World Blood Donor Day&nbsp;June 14 is World Blood Donor Day, a day meant to raise awareness of the need for a safe, diverse and stable blood supply, and to recognize volunteer blood donors. This is the perfect time to give, especially for those who haven’t given in a while, or who have never given before.Those who come to give June 10-30, 2024, will get a $15 e-gift card to a merchant of choice.

North Platte Post/Sandhills Post/Panhandle Post&nbsp;

Haigler, NEB. - No injuries reported after a semi-truck was struck by a BNSF train on Friday near Haigler.&nbsp;

According to the Dundy County Sherrif's Office, on Friday, just before 11:45 am (mountain time), Dundy County Communications received a report of a BNSF train that hit a semi-truck hauling a heavy excavator near U.S. Highway 34 at Mile Marker 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;

According to officials, investigation shows the semi-truck became high centered when trying to cross the railroad tracks. The driver of the semi exited the vehicle before the train struck the semi-truck. He sustained no injuries. The crew of the train was also uninjured during the collision. The semi, trailer and at least one BNSF engine appear to have extensive disabling damage.&nbsp;

The Dundy County Sheriff's Office was assisted by Haigler Fire Department, Benkelman Fire Department and Dundy County Ambulance.&nbsp;

Please be advised that radio calls related to this exercise may be heard from approximately 8 a.m.-1 p.m., but they are related to the training exercise and are not actual emergencies.

TIM is a planned approach to detect, respond to and clear traffic incidents. This exercise is designed to give emergency responders and those supporting TIM operations a better understanding of TIM best practices by bringing together responders from a variety of disciplines who will work through a simulated crash response. The goal of the exercise is to expose responders to the complexities of a crash response, specifically through the perspectives of their partners. Having preestablished relationships and understanding the priorities and challenges of each discipline promotes safe and efficient responses.

This exercise is part of a statewide effort to improve TIM on our roadways. Effective TIM keeps emergency responders, crash victims and motorists safe. When crashes or disruptions occur, TIM practices reduce the duration and impacts of traffic incidents.

North Platte, Neb. - The 2024 Miss Nebraska and Miss Nebraska's Teen were announced on Saturday as Raechel Warren of Omaha was crowned Miss Nebraska 2024 and Janae Harris of Omaha was crowned Miss Nebraska's Teen. 30 women competed the event which took place at North Platte High School.&nbsp;

For Warren, this is her 10th year in the Miss America program and says this is a dream come true after winning the title on Saturday night. She also wants to use this opportunity to represent Nebraska and promote her platform, "Encouraging youth to discover their passion and purpose by championing mentorship, encouraging community and creating opportunity for self-discovery."&nbsp;

Harris is preparing to start her senior year at Millard North where she is a member of the lacrosse team and is a participant in Millard North's STEM program, which allows students to take college courses. This was Harris' 3rd time ever competing in a pageant and it is a real honor to be crowned the 2024 Miss Nebraska's Teen.&nbsp;
