About 90 birds were killed after fire swept through Foster Parrots sanctuary in Hopkinton, R.I., on Thursday.
A Hopkinton, R.I., bird sanctuary home to parrots and other exotic species is vowing to rebuild after a four-alarm blaze tore through its facility last week, destroying a third of the building and killing 96 animals.

Bears can become dependent on readily available backyard food sources and quickly become a nuisance, the DEM says in a press release. Black bears have an excellent sense of smell and will investigate odors they identify as an easy meal – and will regularly frequent a site once a food source is identified.
Rhode Island s black bear population is small, probably fewer than 10, according to Charlie Brown, a wildlife biologist for the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management s division of fish and wildlife, but population is expected to increase in the next few years. As bear populations in Connecticut and Massachusetts grow, some of those bears are likely to wander into Rhode Island looking for space to spread out.
