Today about 9:45 am I saw an interesting cat come out of the brush and cross in front of me not more than 50ft away. Looked like a bob cat but had a tail maybe 15inches long. Gray in color with definite bob cat like ears and head and a rakish profile. Size of a medium size dog. The long tail seemed odd to me. I live 3km noth of La Ribera close to the beach in the jungle. lizjimbaja@yahoo.com

law enforcementPanga Banditos                                                                                                                                                             a.  This was a note to Ray who lives out El Cardonal way:  First the people here in El Cardonal saw 5 suspicious guys that landed on the shore of the beach, in front of Reynaldo's house, one big panga of 25´, a lot of gas containers, 250 hp, no hooks, no fishing equipment, they stayed there for long time in the smalls palapas on the beach, after that they went to the store minisuper El Cardonal, corner of my office to buy some chips and soda, and returned to the beach, now in the small palapa besides Jason´s house.
Reynaldo´s brother came to talk with me around 5:00 pm and told me about what was happend, so I talked with Veronica and we decided to call the military that I knew they were in Bajada de La Mesa, I called Sra. Angelita by radio VHF to Las Tinas and explained her that we need help to call the military, she asked Nacho to tell the military that we had an emergency in El Cardonal. Five minutes later the Municipal police from Los Barriles arrived to my house telling us that they came chasing 5 bandits from La Ribera and I told them that I saw them just 10 minutes ago, then they prepared their weapons and quickly went to the beach, the bandidos realized the arrival of the police and started running crossing Carlos Carton´s house, in that moments, the military were arriving (around 20 soldiers) and they started to help the municipal police walking trying to locate them, all the people in El Cardonal turned on the radio channel 72 and we started communication and helping the police. Jose Martin's wife saw 3 of them by Larry's street and all police and militars went there, but the bandidos got escaping and become lost, after an hour of persecution, at last they caught 2 of them just passing arroyo del bajo on the hill, before La Linea and some more meters they caught 2 more. People from La Linea say by radio (Chente, Holegario, Ramon) that the last one arrived in La Linea asking for water, he was telling the people in La Linea to help him to hide him or take him to a place when he can call by cell phone, but they asked him to go away, 3 minutes later the military arrived but the bandido already was running by the beach...not to make the movie longer, they caught this guy almost arriving Boca del Alamo, in Casa of Mr. Don Ingraham, people from Boca del Alamo were seeing him by binoculars and indicated to the police where he was, it was almost night, dark but fortunately they caught the 5 and we could sleep tranquil that night. They brought a shotgun and buried under the palapa on the beach.
Around 10 patrols police and militar cars arrived that night to El Cardonal....
I hope you understand my explanation, Saludos!
Samuel.

More on Dean's snake:                                                                                                                                     a.  Yep you got it correct,
everyone else about 20 said a gopher snake or a lyre snake, I was able to rule out lyre snake with the pictures.. Without having the snake in front of me and the pictures of each of them there was no way to tell the difference as a novice. All three are basically identical till you have detailed pictures..
He is such a gentle snake….
Here is a picture of two Mexican children I take care of with it….
enjoy   Dean DeVolpi
