Preparing for the Unexpected
As the seasons change, wild animals and their young become more active, and the risk of encounters with humans increases. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources advises that before you find a young wild animal, you should be prepared for the unexpected. This means being aware of your surroundings, knowing what to do in case of an encounter, and having the necessary supplies to care for the animal. • A safe and quiet space to keep the animal*
Understanding the Risks
Wild animals, especially young ones, can be unpredictable and may behave aggressively when threatened or scared. They may also carry diseases or parasites that can be transmitted to humans. It’s essential to understand the risks associated with handling wild animals and to take necessary precautions to protect yourself and the animal.
This is a common behavior observed in many species, including wolves, bears, and deer.
Understanding the Benefits of Solitude
Young wild animals often require solitude to develop essential survival skills and adapt to their environment.
