A recent story from Mexico may provide some clues. In 2006, a mysterious illness began to affect girls at a boarding school in Chalco, Mexico, near Mexico City. The school, which is run by Roman Catholic nuns, is one of 10 in Asia and Latin America operated by a charity called World Villages for Children in Asia.
There are also several marine mammals like Orca's (killer whales), harbor seals and sea lions that live in the Seattle area in the cold waters of Puget Sound and the Pacific Ocean and feed on the salmon and other fish. Douglas squirrels rely on the the evergreen trees that are native to the area.
High-interest animals may have a higher adoption fee. In addition to the animal-specific adoption fees outlined below, if you reside in Seattle, you must purchase a pet license for dogs, cats, pigs and goats at the time of adoption. Included in the $15 adoption fee.
