ODFW reminds public to leave young wildlife alone
SALEM — May and June
are the months when newborn
animals are getting their start in
the wild. Help them out by giv-
ing them space and leaving
them alone.
ODFW and Oregon State
Police remind Oregonians that
taking young animals out of the
Track
from 1B
West League, junior thrower
Josi Hays, who won the MWL
discus title this year, had the
top individual state finish for

charge. The event is open to all

by the Siuslaw High School
Leadership class.
Entertainment will be pro-
vided by the Siuslaw Cheer
Team.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and
the program will conclude no
later than 8:30 p.m.

wild isn’t just against the law
— it’s also bad for the animal.
These animals miss the chance
to learn important survival
skills from their parents like
where to feed, what to eat, how
to behave as part of a group and
how to escape from predators.
Unfortunately, every year
about this time, ODFW offices
across Oregon get calls from
people
concerned
about
“orphaned” deer fawns, elk
calves, seal pups and other ani-
mals they find alone. But the
mother animal is usually just
off feeding not far away.
She will return soon, so
don’t interfere.
“People often pick up ani-
mals they find alone out of
good intentions, without realiz-
ing they may be sentencing the
animal to an early death by
removing it from its natural
environment and its parents,”
said Julia Burco, ODFW dis-
trict wildlife veterinarian.
Before picking up any wild
animal, call ODFW, Oregon
State Police, or a wildlife reha-
bilitator for advice.
For beachcombers, if you see
a marine mammal that appears
in distress, contact OSP’s hot-
line at 1-800-452-7888.
