Kentucky Fish and Wildlife asks that as you head out to enjoy the outdoor recreational offerings of the commonwealth you help to keep wildlife wild.

KFW says you should leave young wildlife undisturbed, even when they appear alone or abandoned, and is reminding property owners to watch for vulnerable wildlife when working on their properties.

Well-meaning people often attempt to rescue a baby animal they believe to be abandoned when in reality the mother is typically nearby. Mothers often leave young in the nest as they hunt or forage for food, or will stay away from the nest in order to lead predators away.

KFW says you can help wild animals by observing them from afar, keeping children and pets away, and checking properties for the presence of young animals before mowing. You also should report an animal you believe to be infected with rabies to Kentucky Fish and Wildlife’s regional biologist.

Only state-approved wildlife rehabs, such as Nolin River Wildlife, are permitted to care for orphaned or injured wildlife.
