The Log

Many wildlife can be seen day or night. A wild animal that is active during the day may be normal and healthy.

Some wildlife may adapt their behaviors to be more active during the day and closer to humans.
These animals may be searching for food, rearing young, or seeking mates.
Humans can attract wildlife by providing resources (e.g. food) – sometimes without even knowing it.

As the human population grows, human-wildlife interactions and wildlife sightings may increase.
