🌿🐾 What’s Happening This Month in Wildlife – April Edition! 🐾🌿
Spring is here, and that means kit season is in full swing! 🌸 This month, you may start noticing more wildlife activity around your home—and chances are, it’s because proud moms are raising their young nearby.
👀 Who to watch for this month:
• 🦝 Raccoons – nesting in attics, chimneys, and crawl spaces with their kits
• 🐿️ Squirrels – busy raising kits in trees and sometimes inside homes
• 🐺 Coyotes – caring for pups and becoming more protective of their territory
• 🐾 Opossums – carrying tiny joeys in their pouches
• 🐰 Rabbits – nesting in yards, often hidden in grass or landscaping
• 🦫 Beavers & Muskrats – raising kits near ponds, lakes, and waterways
⚠️ What this means for you:
During this time, wildlife may be more active, more visible, and more defensive than usual. If you hear scratching, chirping, or movement in your home, it could be a mother and her kits. If you come across a nest or kits, it’s best to keep your distance.
📞 Give us a call if you need us—we’re happy to help!
