Wildlife and Nature
Animal and Bird Sightings -- Red Foxes and Cats!
- Red Foxes are common around the LWRA, but we have noticed increased activity over the past month, with numerous early morning sightings (especially on Thursday garbage mornings). One resident on N Waseosa has reported a confrontation with a neighbourhood domestic cat. Small pets face risks when off-leash in the wild: please take care! Have you noticed more foxes than normal this fall?
