1. Observe wildlife from a distance. Do not follow or approach them.
2. Never feed animals. Feeding wildlife damages their health, alters natural behaviors, and exposes them to predators and other dangers.
3. Protect wildlife and your food by storing rations and trash securely.
4. Control pets at all times, or leave them at home.
5. Avoid wildlife during sensitive times: mating, nesting, raising young, or winter.
This is very good advice. Although I've noticed lately that more and more wild animals are feeling more and more comfortable around human beings. For instance, my brother actually had a squirrel come up to him and place its little paws on my brother's big shoes. I wonder if these changes in habits are a good or bad thing for the animals in the long run.
