Living with Wildlife in Manitoba
Human-wildlife conflicts can occur when people and wildlife
compete for resources, wherever you're living, working or
pursuing recreational activities.
 Native animals are wild animals whether you see them in
natural areas or your own backyard. While we are privileged
to be able to observe fascinating native animals at such
close quarters, living with wildlife has its own special
problems.
Wild animals in inappropriate locations can pose significant
problems for or threats to humans, other animals, or the
environment. They can cause serious damage to crops, livestock
and property. They can create hazardous conditions for vehiclular
traffic. They can expose you and/or your pets to disease
and health issues.
Always treat wild animals with caution. Learn to recognize
the signs of wildlife presence and/or damage, and understand
your options for deterring unwanted visitors on your property. |
