MIDLAND, Mich. (AP) - The state has extended advisories for consuming wild game from the Tittabawassee River and Saginaw River flood plains because of dioxin contamination from Dow Chemical Co.  The state announced Monday that samples confirm high levels of dioxin and dioxin-like compounds in animals.

Dioxins previously found in game along the Tittabawassee River had prompted a 2004 advisory. Officials say their advisories now include whitetail deer, turkey, squirrel, wood duck and Canada goose.   Eating cottontail rabbit is likely OK.
