Neighbors feeding deer. Anywhere from 5 to 7 cross my back yard each evening. Winslow Farm woods overcrowded with deer. Deer are destroying native trees in woods, leaving it overgrown with invasive plants.. Last fall 4 bucks in our neighborhood, which needless to say created multiple births of more deer. Ideally they should be minimized.
I am concerned about the mowing/bush-hogging on the side of I-69 off of Tapp road and other similar places on the side of highways. It is destruction of wildlife habitat and there is no point to mowing it since nobody ever touches that area. I apologize if I am reaching out to the wrong department. Have a good day!
Racoons (at least 2) have found a way into walls of house through gap in roof eves
Too many deer, yet even young ones walk toward me when I come outside. Someone is probably feeding them, and I really don't want them drawn to my area.
A skunk has been spraying somewhat often the last few weeks and we have seen it in our neighbors yard. We would like to avoid our dogs getting sprayed again this year, are we permitted to trap skunks?
There's a groundhog under my tool shed (which is also burrowing under the back porch and the garage). I'd be grateful for any guidance you might offer in how to trap and relocate.
Yesterday evening a orange male cat attacked my leg severely biting and scratching me. The cat was wearing a yellow collar and took off into the neighborhood behind our house. My doctor said that the cat needs to be found and checked for rabies. I have no idea who the cat belongs to and my direct neighbors don’t own him
Duck, quail and turkey in a small cage at 1100 W Countryside Lane in Bloomington with no shelter, space to roam, viable clean water or bedding.
Aggressive deer charged at me and my dog on a walk two times in the past 24 hours. First encounter was last night (9/13) around 7:30p in the alleyway between University & 1st near to Woodlawn Ave. The second incident happened along S. Ballantine Rd between Maxwell Ln & Sheridan Dr. this morning (9/14) around 7:15a. Both instances involved does that did not have any fawns nearby and were unprovoked - my dog did not try to chase or attack as we both didn’t notice them initially. I had to throw nearby items that were on the ground, such as sticks & rocks, multiple times in order to get them to leave us alone. Extremely unnerving behavior especially for does without fawns and is a hazard to anyone in the neighborhood.
