Wild Animals

Please be aware that we share our living environment with many wild animals. While not frequently sited, bears, mountain lions, and coyotes, along with many more critters, do roam Cedar Ridge Estates.

The following is taken from the CA Department of Fish & Game’s website http://www.dfg.ca.gov/keepmewild/:

Wild Animals Don’t Need Your Handouts.
They Need Your Respect.

Bear in Cedar Ridge EstatesYou 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 California, 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.

Please – stash your food and trash.
Keep them wild.

Do your part and stay informed. Tell Marks Management Group if you do see a mountain lion or bear. That way they can track an animal that may become a nuisance. Please read the following flyers to stay up to speed on how to share our environment with the wild animals around us.
