You
may not realize it - a simple bag of garbage, bowl of pet
food, or plate of leftovers left outside your home or vacation
site, can cause severe harm to wildlife.
Whether you live in a city or a rural part of Nevada, wild
animals are your neighbors. Most wild animals will not bother
you. They naturally fear humans and keep their distance so
long as they remain fully wild.
But if wild animals have access to human food and garbage, they want more and more. They lose their natural fear of humans and can become aggressive.
If bears and other wild animals damage property or threaten human safety, they might be killed. Allowing wild animals access to human food is dead wrong. |
