🔥 October is Fire Prevention Month! 🔥
This week’s reminder is a good one to refresh: Make sure to leave room when using space heaters. Make sure you:
Keep 3 feet of space between flammable items
Plug directly into a wall outlet
Turn off before leaving or going to sleep
A few minutes of prevention can make all the difference.

🪽 A Helping Hand for Wildlife! 🪽
Not every rescue involves flashing lights and sirens! Lt. Krahn recently came to the aid of an injured Sandhill Crane, helping get the bird safely to Fellow Mortals Wildlife Hospital for care and recovery.
We’re proud of Lt. Krahn, Officer Jacobs, and Officer Russell for taking the time to help one of Wisconsin’s beautiful wild animals in need. Acts of compassion like this are a great reminder that serving our community means looking out for all its residents — including our wildlife!
Thank you to Fellow Mortals Wildlife Hospital for the important work you do caring for injured and orphaned wild animals. We hope this crane makes a full recovery! 🪶🚔
