This month's navaid is a Terminal VOR, located at a joint-use (civil-military) airfield in the U.S. The airfield, named after the nearby small city, has a different ID than the VOR. The city was named after an animal which no longer exists in that area.

This VORTAC is located in the United States. It's named after the nearby city. The identifier is the same as the city's airport, but it is located 5.8 miles away.
That city is a stop on the Amtrak system, and was named after the wife of a railroad baron.
The airport hasn't had airline service for 72 years. The nearest airline-served airport is 73 nautical miles away.
"Florida" is nearby.

This low altitude VORTAC is located in the United States. It's named after the nearby city, and is 15.5 nautical miles away from its airline-served airport.
Its designator is what you would think that airport's IATA code would be, but that code relates to the borough where it is located.
Actually, the city's previous airline-served airport, closer to the city, still carries that IATA code. Airline service left there in the late 1960s.
