July 4 fireworks threaten Big Bear eaglets
Environmental advocates are petitioning the city of Big Bear to move or modify the annual fireworks display due to concerns about its impact on bald eagles, specifically the family of eagles known as Jackie and Shadow, whose newly hatched and still undeveloped eaglets, Sandy and Luna, are at a vulnerable stage. The petition, which has collected over 12,500 signatures, urges consideration of alternative celebrations like drone light shows to prevent disturbing the young birds during their critical development period. Despite opposition citing economic importance, conservation groups highlight the potential risks that loud noises and bright flashes pose to the eagles and their young during this sensitive time.
