The cord was so tightly wrapped around his neck that it could not be seen under the fur, and it was "constricting so much of the soft tissue," she said. While spinal damage was the first concern, the team noted extensive swelling around the coyote's neck and hoped some of the neurological

$900 cars offer a transportation lifeline in Massachusetts

Second Chance Cars is working with Massachusetts nonprofits to put affordable vehicles in the hands of veterans, returning citizens and single parents who need transportation. Recipients pay $900 for a refurbished used vehicle, according to a community announcement, through a zero-interest, credit-building loan from Metro Credit Union. Payments are $75 a month for one year. Second Chance Cars, or SCC, partners with nonprofits to identify qualified candidates, refurbish donated vehicles and match the cars with recipients. The program is intended to address a lack of affordable car ownership options for people in need in Massachusetts, according to the announcement.
