BYLAW 343-24 ANIMAL CONTROL
BYLAW 344-24 FEEDING OF WILDLIFE
Do you have a pet in the Summer Village or are thinking about getting one?
The Animal Control Bylaw will provide you with more information on Animal Ownership & Responsibilities.
Feeding wildlife can do more harm than good and can often lead to serious issues for many species. Fed wildlife can become dependent on unreliable food sources and suffer nutritionally when given inappropriate foods. Habituated wild animals are also more susceptible to predators and vehicle collisions, as they lose their fear of people and the associated flight response. Wild animals who have been fed regularly can also develop food-seeking aggression and can become hostile towards people and pets. We have especially seen the effects of feeding wildlife on the deer population in Silver Sands over the past years. We continue to urge residents to only observe the wildlife and not to feed them, the Summer Village recently approved a new bylaw for the feeding of wildlife where fines could be issued to offenders.
