Fall Reminder: Help Keep Wildlife Wild!

Posted October 15, 2025

As the weather cools, wild animals become more active in their search for food. To help keep our community safe and prevent unwanted wildlife encounters, please remember:

Secure your garbage: Store bins in a garage or shed until collection day, and use animal-proof containers if possible.

Avoid leaving pet food outdoors: Bring in dishes after feeding.

Clean up fallen fruit: Remove apples, berries, and other produce from yards.

Compost responsibly: Use enclosed bins and avoid adding meat or dairy.

Feed birds wisely: Use feeders that minimize spillage and avoid feeding other wildlife.

Let’s work together to protect both our community and local wildlife. Thank you for doing your part!

For questions or concerns about wildlife, please contact the Ministry of Natural Resources at 1-800-667-1940, or visit https://www.ontario.ca/page/prevent-conflicts-wildlife
