The combination of good hygiene, social distancing, and staying home when sick, have helped us stay ahead of the virus’ spread. I want to thank everyone for their due diligence. At the moment, all the individuals that have tested positive in South Dakota are at home resting and healing up. That’s good news for everyone. The other good news Use The is, though it doesn’t get Broadcaster nearly enough attention in the press, that there are untold stories of how people are coming together at this difficult time. For example, the Dairy Queen in Pierre purchased iPads for the high-risk and vulnerable folks that are “shut in” in Pierre. These iPads are helping isolated individuals stay in touch with friends and family during this time. There’s also a story of a young man (17 years old) that voluntarily gave up his shift hours to coworkers who needed the money more than him. Or the grocery stores who have special shopping times for seniors and high-risk folks so they can shop without being exposed to crowds that may be carrying the virus. And the business manager for Todd County’s School District who is sending out 5000 meals a day to kids in his school district.

However, due to concerns of COVID-19, the South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks (GFP) will not be accepting tails for the program until a later date. Participants are asked to freeze all tails until dates and locations are determined for submission. Beginning April 1, striped skunk, opossum, red fox, badger and raccoon tails will be worth $5 for South Dakota residents who submit them to the program. The Nest Predator Bounty Program will have a cap of $250,000. “This program is a great way for families to spend time together outside,” said GFP department secretary Kelly Hepler. “Now, more than ever, it is important that families connect with our outdoor resources by trapping, hunting, fishing and really just being outside together.” Tails eligible for submission can be harvested via trapping or hunting. Participants need a hunting, furbearer or fishing license to be eligible to participate in the bounty program. Landowners harvesting nest predators for the program on their own land and youth under 18 are exempt from this license requirement. GFP will communicate dates and locations for tail turn-in as information becomes available on gfp. sd.gov and through their social media platforms. Broadcaster Press bp Broadcaster TODD’S Begins April 1 schools are closed. Parents who work in essential jobs, like emergency personnel, medical professionals, law enforcement, and many others, may be feeling pressure with their kids at home because schools are closed. I’m asking South Dakotans to get creative and help problem solve for these families. If you are not in the vulnerable population and are at home with the capacity to care for some kids, would you please consider opening up your home to these families? Perhaps one silver lining of this national emergency is that it forces us to stay home and think local. I am inspired to see South Dakotans looking out for each other. Together, we will get through this. We always do. To learn more about ways you can protect yourself and the people around you, visit COVID. SD.GOV or call 1-800-9972880.
