Living With Wildlife |
|
|
Everyone needs a place to live – a habitat. But the world is getting crowded, and space for wildlife is
disappearing. Sometimes wild
animals, even very shy species, have to live close to people, in cities, towns
and neighborhoods.
Many people enjoy wildlife.
It can be fun to watch birds at feeders and baths. We can attract other kinds of wildlife by wildscaping our
yards – growing plants that wildlife use for food and shelter.
But sometimes living close to one another can
cause problems. We can overcome
these problems by learning how to live in harmony together, and we need to
respect the fact that wild animals are different from domesticated animals, with
different needs.
