Any wild animal that bites a person, the code states, may be killed to be tested for rabies. One of the reasons municipalities treat wolf-dogs differently is that there is no U.S. Department of Agriculture-approved anti-rabies vaccination for wild animals.

Although veterinarians will give the vaccine to wolf-dogs, neither the vaccine! manufacturers nor the USDA will guarantee the effectiveness in wolf-dog hybrids. Without that assurance, state health officials often recommend that wild animals be killed to find out if they have rabies. Mira Leslie, state public health veterinarian, said that although they can be quarantined, wild animals, unlike domesticated animals, sometimes take up to a month to show symptoms of rabies. "The person needs to know before that if they need rabies vaccines," Leslie said. "If the wolf breaks out in 21 days with rabies, that's too late for the human." Rabies is deadly if not treated.

Neidefler and other supporters believe the vaccine works just as well in wolf-dog hybrids as any domesticated dog because wolves and dogs are the same species.

Hoping to avoid a physical confrontation with Neidefler, police chose to ticket him for failing to surrender his dogs for testing. This gives Peoria Municipal Judge George Anagnost the final word on the case.

The case goes to court Tuesday. Neidefier's problems began June 21 when a neighbor boy came over to visit Neidefler and his dogs. According to police, Neidefler was in the back yard behind a chain-link fence with his three wolf-dog hybrids talking to the boy, who was in the front yard, which is also fenced. According to police, when Neidefler opened the gate separating the wolf-dogs from the boy, the wolf-dogs immediately attacked. The teenage boy told police that the three animals tried to pull him onto the ground.

Neidefler managed to get the three wolf-dogs off the boy, but not before the boy received four bites on his left leg, all of which required stitches. Now police want Totonka, the wolf-dog who bit the boy, euthanized so it can be tested for the rabies virus. The test requires that the animal be killed, his head removed and his brains examined under a microscope. Neidefler has made it clear to the police that he will not surrender any of his animals for testing. That has him facing a possible $2,500 fine and six months in jail.

He says the city has no right to take his animals, which have been vaccinated. He feels the city should have allowed him to keep the animals under quarantine at his home for the required period, just like golden retrievers or chihuahuas. Peoria City Code states that a dog or cat that bites someone can be quarantined at the owner's home for not less than seven days if the animal has been vaccinated for rabies. If it hasn't, the animal is quarantined at the dog pound. The problem is, Peoria, like many municipalities across the country, considers wolf-dogs to be wild animals, and wild animals are treated 5 1 st Ave.

Now he's been put behind the eight ball." It costs Darwish $40,000 a month to keep the mall open, he said. Darwish is not the only one to put money into the ailing mall. The city has made about $300,000 worth of street improvements around the perimeter even after it learned of the lawsuit, according to Peter Van Ha-ren, Glendale city attorney. Van Haren said he is confident the judge's decision to dismiss the two charges would not be overturned. "The facts were clearly substantiated," he said.

And the city is still hopeful that the mall can thrive again. The new housing development for which the mall was renamed (it was formerly Valley West Mall) could add 400 homes. A senior center is also being built. The construction could generate hundreds of potential customers. Already there are new signs of life at the mall.

Although the World Market Place plans to close its doors this month, two stores have opened beside it. Shoppers have a choice of "Close-out" and "Grand Opening" sales. Another store, Cajun Express Pools, is so new it does not yet have a sign, just a banner hanging from the edge of the roof. Van Haren said there also have been inquiries from prospective buyers. "We want to see it develop into a real commercial viable resource," he said.

"It can happen." Jennifer Barrett can be reached at (602) 444-7113 or at jennifer.barrettpni.com via e-mail. MANISTEE, fivm Page 1 He decided instead last year to turn the center into a multiuse property that could include a charter school, a county courthouse and, perhaps, a church. His first tenant was the Maya charter school, which held classes in an old video arcade and opened an office in a former auto parts store. Next, Darwish tried to bring two justice courts to the center. But county commissioners opted to move them to downtown Glendale instead.

Frustrated, Darwish filed a $2 million lawsuit against Glendale in December, listing more than 30 allegations against Mayor Elaine Scruggs and other Glendale officials. The suit accused them of delaying approval of new signs, promised improvements and renewal of a charter school lease, and using their positions to stir up public opposition to the justice courts. Last month, U.S. District Judge Paul Rosenblatt dismissed charges that the city had denied property rights to Darwish or that it had conspired to deprive Darwish of equal protection under the law. He sent three other charges back to state courts.

Calls to Darwish were referred to his lawyer, Dennis Wilenchik of Phoenix, who said he is appealing the judge's decision. He said city officials were hiding behind an ambiguous and antiquated doctrine. After the deal with the county fell through to locate the courts at the mall, Wilenchik said Darwish was forced to sell part of the center to a group of California businessmen. He declined to name them.
