Sciurids are often seen eating carrion on roads but are rarely seen attacking live prey. We report a rare incident of an Eastern Chipmunk, Tamias striatus, attacking (but not eating) a Maritime Garter Snake, Thamnophis sirtalis pallidulus, at Cooks Lake, Halifax County, Nova Scotia, Canada, on 29 September 2009 at 1315 h.

This paper put forward a kind of vehicle anti-collision warning system and put the emphasis on the research of active control. It introduced the function and composition of the system and expounded its working principle. First the safety distance model was studied based on the vehicle kinetic theory. This model contained longitudinal and lateral safety distance model. And the longitudinal safety distance model can be further divided into Safety Critical distance, Lock-in Target distance, Danger Critical distance and Limited Critical distance. Then the dangerous targets were identified and classified based on safety distance model .Finally, according to different targets, the corresponding evasion control strategy and the control flow chart were established.
