Keep the Wild in Wildlife: Do Not Feed or Touch

Do not disturb

The safety and health of wildlife depend on the thoughtful actions of human visitors. Know the risks of getting too close to wild animals and how to avoid them. Even when you’re farther away, leaving wildlife alone can help your viewing experience—plus it’s the law. It’s illegal to feed, touch, tease, frighten, or intentionally disturb wildlife. [Section 14-21 Ordinance 2019-12] Interacting with wildlife also can cause harm to both people and wildlife, including injury and disease.

Keep children close and stay on trails to help keep a human presence in predictable areas.

If dogs are allowed, keep them on leash, pick up fecal matter, and ensure they are vaccinated.

Do not use bird calls or wildlife calls and attractants.
