Our wildlife neighbors enjoy the beauty of our natural resources as much as we do, and the NRC encourages residents not to disturb these animals. Most are not aggressive and will move on when they sense people in the area; please keep pets under control should you encounter wildlife. For additional tips, watch the informational video from NRC Environmental Education and Outreach coordinator Lisa Moore on Coexisting with Coyotes and Black Bears.
If you notice abnormal behavior, it may indicate the animal is sick. Do not approach a wild animal! Contact Animal Control Officer Jennifer Smith at 781-235-1212 x7103.
