Beginning today Point Pelee National Park will be temporarily closed to visitors.
The closure is to allow for Parks Canada and Caldwell First Nation to conduct a deer cull. There is a overabundance of white-tailed deer in the park. The current deer herd population remains higher than what the ecosystem can support and poses a safety risk. All the deer that are culled are given to Caldwell First Nation to use for ceremonial, personal, and traditional use. None of it is sold for profit.
The park is expected to re-open on November 22nd.

England’s King Charles III turns 77 years old today.
With the job of King, comes a pretty sweet perk; His Majesty gets to celebrate his birthday not just once, but twice a year.
Since the 18th century, Kings and Queens get to double up their festivities with both a private event on the real date, and a public celebration. The reason why, is simple, no-one wants the rain to ruin their parade, so ever since the 1740s, monarchs have scheduled their public parties for the summer.
The tradition is believed to have started with the party-mad King George II in 1748.
