California roads kill 44,000 deer a year, UC Davis estimates. Highway 50 is a hotspot

Vehicles kill an estimated 44,000 mule deer and 780 mountain lions on California roads each year, according to a new UC Davis report that identified hundreds of wildlife collision hotspots across the state, including a stretch of Highway 50 in El Dorado County. The 2026 California Roadkill Hotspots Report, released Tuesday by the university’s Road Ecology Center, found that wildlife collisions remained a persistent problem despite growing investments in crossings designed to help animals move safely across highways. Researchers argued that California needs more roadside fencing to prevent animals from entering traffic, particularly where existing bridges and culverts could provide safe passage beneath highways. “But just building a crossing doesn’t mean wildlife will use it — they’ll try to cross wherever they are. Fencing is the answer to reducing roadkill, not crossings alone,” said Fraser Shilling, director of the UC Davis Road Ecology Center. Thousands of animals killed on California roads Researchers estimated that vehicles killed more than 44,000 mule deer annually on California freeways, highways and major paved roads between 2016 and 2024. That represented nearly 10% of the state’s estimated 475,000 mule deer and more than four times the number reported killed by hunters in 2024. The report

Route 66 in California: Desert Towns & Mother Road Stops

Route 66 in California is the last stretch of the Mother Road, running about 345 miles from the Colorado River at Needles to the Pacific at Santa Monica, according to the National Park Service. It packs the whole Route 66 story into one state: empty desert highway, a neon-lit ghost town, a silver-mining boomtown, and a pier at the end. And 2026 is the road’s centennial year, a hundred years since U.S. Route 66 was designated on November 11, 1926.

Hundreds of Stanislaus residents losing CalFresh food assistance due to federal rules

About 720 residents in Stanislaus County have lost CalFresh benefits, as of Nov. 1, because of new federal work requirements. It represents a small percentage of the 85,000 county residents receiving CalFresh food assistance , but the number of those affected will grow as their eligibility comes up for renewal in the months ahead. The county’s Community Services Agency said 2,100 people could lose the assistance if they don’t meet the work requirements under H.R. 1, the federal bill that made changes to the nation’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. CalFresh is the name for SNAP in California. A CSA spokesperson said Tuesday the agency has conducted eligibility assessments for CalFresh recipients through October, and more people are expected to lose benefits each month as additional work requirement assessments are done between November and June, 2027. “Stanislaus County remains committed to supporting community members who rely on CalFresh benefits ,” the CSA said. “When residents lose access to food assistance, it is a concern.” The county will continue to monitor the effects of H.R. 1 on residents and work closely with community partners to help connect eligible individuals and families with available food resources and support services, the agency said.

Letters to the Editor: I wonder how those who fled California are feeling after the blue wave

To the editor: For years, the "California exodus" was cited as proof that people were fleeing high taxes and one-party rule ("They fled California for Republican Texas. Then the blue wave hit the Lone Star State," Nov. 10). Texas, Arizona and Nevada are among the states that drew the most Californians. Research shows that many of those who left leaned Republican and often chose states that matched their politics.

The midterm election was a Democratic wave, but underlying numbers show nuance in California

Eric McGhee, fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California, notes multiple of the state's congressional Democrats, won in head to heads against other Democrats this November. photo credit: Wikimedia/Mrs. Gemstones It's been over a week since election day, and more races in Sonoma County and around the state are getting settled. The midterm elections on November 3rd delivered big wins for Democratic Party candidates across the country, the county, and the state. Joanna Paun, endorsed by the Sonoma County Democratic Party in the race for the county's 2nd district supervisor seat, officially declared victory a week after election night. Melanie Bagby, also endorsed by the local democratic party, continues to hold a slim lead in the race for 4th district supervisor. Sonoma County will also be represented by three Democrats in Congress in Washington D.C. Eric McGhee, a senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California said despite the major Democratic Party gains, there's some nuance to the story in California. "If you just look at the races that had both a Democrat and Republican on the ballot, so cross-party contested races, the the swing in those seats was actually smaller than it was in similar seats in
