Here's your local news at a glance for Tuesday, the 3rd of June.
Good morning, Jupiter.
Argentine black and white tegus have been increasingly spotted in Palm Beach County near canal banks in Jupiter Farms, where Busch Wildlife Sanctuary receives a call about sightings at least once a year — the reptiles are non-native, reach nearly 5 feet long, and can threaten local wildlife by eating eggs and hatchlings. Florida law allows removal of these invasive tegus from private property with permission, and officials urge residents to photograph and report any encounters to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
Dog owners in Jupiter should check sunscreen labels because some chemicals may harm pets.
Ingredients such as oxybenzone, octinoxate, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide can cause vomiting, diarrhea or even seizures in dogs—some sunscreens are made without these ingredients.
