| 0:00.0 | From Meedeeaters World News Headquarters in Bozeman, Montana. |
| 0:13.0 | This is Cal's weekend review with Ryan, Cal-Cal-An. |
| 0:17.0 | Now, here's Cal. |
| 0:19.0 | The Pennsylvania Game Commission reported last month that someone has been dropping dog treats stuffed with fishing lures or fish hooks on the Apple ancient trail. |
| 0:29.0 | The Commission posted images of the booby-trapped treats on Facebook and warn dog owners to be careful about what their pup |
| 0:35.2 | ingest while near the Lehi Gap Nature Center in the eastern portion of the state. |

| 1:23.9 | Just last year in France, four dogs died after eating poison meatballs someone had strewn |
| 1:28.0 | along a cross-country racetrack. |
| 1:30.2 | No one was convicted and motive was never discovered, but authorities did say the perpetrator likely used gloves to mix the poison to hide his or her fingerprints. |
| 1:38.5 | Interesting. |
