Responsible Wildlife Management in Fresno, California
The City of Fresno acknowledges the complex interactions between urban development and native wildlife. Effective and responsible wildlife management is crucial for ensuring public safety, protecting property, and maintaining the ecological integrity of our region.

This page outlines the City’s commitment to humane and scientifically sound wildlife control practices. We prioritize strategies that minimize harm to animals while addressing the legitimate concerns of residents and businesses.

Key Principles of Fresno’s Wildlife Management Approach:

Public Safety First: The City’s primary concern is the safety and well-being of its residents. We address wildlife conflicts that pose a direct threat to public health or safety with decisive and appropriate action.
Preventative Measures: Proactive measures are the most effective means of mitigating wildlife conflicts. We encourage residents and businesses to:
Secure garbage and food sources.
Eliminate potential shelter sites.
Maintain property to prevent wildlife access.
Humane Exclusion and Deterrence: We prioritize non-lethal methods for managing wildlife. This includes:
Exclusion techniques that allow animals to safely exit structures.
Deterrents that discourage wildlife from entering specific areas.
Habitat modification to reduce attractants.
Relocation as a Last Resort: Relocation is considered only when other humane methods are not feasible and when the animal poses a significant threat. Relocation is conducted in accordance with California Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations.
Strict Adherence to Regulations: All wildlife management activities are conducted in full compliance with local, state, and federal laws.
Education and Public Awareness: We are committed to educating the public about responsible wildlife interactions and preventative measures.
Addressing Wildlife Concerns:
The City of Fresno does not condone or support indiscriminate killing or inhumane treatment of wildlife. Our approach is grounded in scientific principles and a commitment to responsible stewardship of our natural resources.
