New Mexico Game and Fish urges drivers to watch for turtles on roads
NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish is reminding people to be aware of slow-moving turtles on the road. The department said Desert box turtles can be found coming out of hibernation and becoming more active during rainy conditions.

They said the turtles cross the road looking for new habitats and nest building. The department said if you see one on the road, stop and help it get to the other side. They are also reminding people not to take them home as it’s illegal to collect and sell wild turtles.

Auburn football injury report: The latest on Cam Coleman and more before New Mexico
Hugh Freeze and the Auburn Tigers had a rough weekend.
Not only did they drop their first game of the 2024 season in a 21-14 loss to the Cal Golden Bears on Saturday, but they also struggled to stay healthy in the process.
In the final minutes of Saturday’s game, Auburn freshman wide receiver Cam Coleman got “shaken up” and appeared to be favoring his right shoulder.
After the game, Freeze said starting right tackle Izavion ‘Too Tall’ Miller had also got dinged up, which resulted in him playing just 22 snaps in the loss.
Immediately following the game, Freeze didn’t have an update on either injury.
However, Freeze was able to give a brief update on the two injuries during his press conference on Monday afternoon.
“Both will be questionable, for sure,” Freeze said of Coleman and Miller.
Of the two, Freeze says he’s more confident in having the freshman wide receiver available for this week’s New Mexico game than the offensive lineman.
“He tried to come back in. That’s one of the hits Payton (Thorne) took right as he was throwing. He just couldn’t move… he’s got a hip issue,” Freeze said of Miller.
Freeze added that both Coleman and Miller have gotten MRIs since Saturday’s game.
“It’s nothing that’s season-ending, thank God,” Freeze said. “But probably would be difficult for (Miller) to play and I’m not sure on Cam. Just depends on how quickly he gets some range of motion in that shoulder.”

State issues recall notice for cannabis that tested positive for banned pesticide • Source New Mexico
New Mexico’s cannabis regulator has issued a recall notice after a wholesaler shipped contaminated product to retailers across the state.
The contaminated product was cannabis flower, not concentrated products like gummies,, and came from WH Agriculture, known as Maggie’s Farm, according to the New Mexico Cannabis Control Division.
The product was shipped to more than 30 retailers between March 6 and August 1, according to state regulators.
A Sept. 4 notice to Maggie’s Farms notes that the state was notified in November 2023 that the company’s product tested positive for a pesticide called pyrethrins. On Aug. 30, the state asked the company to prove it was using a permissible level of the pesticide, which the company was unable to do, according to the letter.
The notice requires the company to remove and destroy all of the product that’s made it to dispensaries, r and to alert all retailers who may have bought it.
The state released a list of 32 shipments to 11 dispensaries that received the product, 23 of which are in Albuquerque. Other retailers are in Los Lunas, Sunland Park, Alamogordo and elsewhere.
The retailers that are on the list are R. Greenleaf Organics, Everest Apothecary, Loud Cloud and House of Blaze.
The New Mexico Cannabis Control Division is asking people to review the list and pay attention to the package identification number. They’re advised to destroy the product or return it to the retailer to be destroyed.
No health-related complaints have been reported, according to a news release. But the state says anyone with concerns can call the state poison control hotline at (800) 222-1222.
According to the division’s website, this is the second time it has issued a mandatory recall notice. In March, an Albuquerque retailer was ordered to destroy cannabis concentrates that tested positive with the banned pesticide called malathion.
