“What is the #1 source of injuries at the Grand Canyon? Squirrels! They may look friendly, but beware of the begging, biting squirrel! Help #KeepWildlifeWild and don't give squirrels human food! 🐿 What if I want to get an animal’s attention? Calling, clicking, whistling or making noises of any kind to attract wildlife is illegal. If trying to attract a human, it’s not illegal, but may also result in physical injury and a trip to the clinic. 🐿 What if an animal approaches me? Aren’t you special. Wildlife may not know better, but YOU do. Although it may feel flattering, if any kind of wildlife approaches you, back away and maintain that safe distance. It’s your responsibility and your safety —help us keep wildlife wild.”
