Picking up sea stars, urchins and other animals damages their sensitive feet, leaving them unable to feed. Respect Means… Leave creatures as you find them! Look, don’t touch, and step carefully. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/1631539076597-AICEH3WZCMFV43M98WTG/RW-OTTER-Meme-Ad-01.jpg Home - Stay Back, You’re Scary Wildlife Need Their Space We know you’re not a monster. But to an otter mom and her pup, you may seem like one. Your best chance to see wild animals is when they feel relaxed and safe. Respect Means… If an animal starts to stare, fidget or flee, calmly back away and give them more space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/0dd26338-97d0-474e-b512-ee5843258fce/RW-LITTER-Meme-Ad-final-01.jpg Home - Pick Up and Pack Out Trash Your Litter May Be Their Last Meal What looks like garbage to us can seem like a feast to animals. When they eat garbage, it may cause them to choke or starve. Litter Hurts Animals can become entangled in debris, causing some to drown or cut into their skin and cause an infection. Respect Means… Always carry your trash to the nearest garbage can. You can also pick up litter you find. If trash cans are overflowing, take your trash home. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/1633528547132-L9A4IPC7O0D54Q9IMGW0/RW-SELFIE-Meme-Ad-final-01.jpg Home - Hang Back to Enjoy the View Safety Over Selfies That great Instagram post is not worth an injury or death. Seals and other large animals can and do injure humans, and they can feel threatened when you get close. Respect Means… Keep your distance. Use your zoom lens or binoculars if you want that close-up view. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/1631539208249-4UHXAD21NVMA0I9H38Y2/RW-Feeding-Meme-Ad-01.jpg Home - Keep Your Snacks to Yourself People Food is Poison Feeding wildlife may sicken or weaken them. When you feed wildlife, they associate people with food, which causes them to become aggressive, putting you and others in danger. They may lose their ability to scavenge or hunt for food. Respect Means… Share food with your friends, not wildlife. Let them find and eat food that is natural for them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/1631539186005-KVDSA3M8P60M6EPMWE86/RW-FLUSHING-Meme-Ad-final-01.jpg Home - Keep Pets on a Leash and Kids Close Don’t Be a Space Invader Kids and pets might have fun chasing birds, but to the birds, it’s a serious invasion. Birds use precious energy escaping and may abandon their nests. Respect Means… Leashing your dog protects your pet and wildlife too. Teach kids to stay back, and to look, not touch. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/1631538826960-0MN39GO2AFOPPJJK0PUI/Respect+Wildlife+Logos.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/1632421337829-MJLVTNK053CQF7AK9ZHE/Respect+Wildlife+Logos+%281%29.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.respect-wildlife.org/how-to-respect-wildlife daily 0.75 2022-06-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/1628798634551-KXX38D4J5XB86Q5P3CHP/noaa-logo-144x144.png How to Respect Wildlife - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/1628798731395-BMHQN4TL80INXKDRKFSW/wvg-horizontal-english.jpeg How to Respect Wildlife - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.respect-wildlife.org/get-involved daily 0.75 2024-02-09 https://www.respect-wildlife.org/about daily 0.75 2021-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/774c5708-21e3-48b5-9d9d-def6aa328f40/california-department-of-parks-and-recreation.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/f8bbd77c-e384-440e-a166-ed2bd409187e/california-audubon.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/8ec813c6-4817-4890-b0f3-ce9a3b8646b7/defenders-of-wildlife.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/964d9c26-7847-4bd8-a292-eb041a8b7a96/noaa-nms-logos.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/14740015-9809-4d40-b63c-e5077aea6b3e/marine-protected-area-collaborative-network.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/119fe113-c4c8-4085-b498-626e532de9fd/monterey-bay-kayaks.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/266cf6a9-e665-46d5-b3dd-022bd6aa495c/oceans-unmanned.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/962d738a-f9f1-432a-82c2-b83f48a25d45/save-the-whales.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/82266657-e78a-45a9-bc5b-e48bdb9b7ff8/sea-otter-savvy.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/6960a39d-a090-4df8-8706-55cdfd6786cf/Respect+Wildlife+Logos.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/82d0e1f4-c4ec-4328-b9a7-5a731f9e5488/us-dept-of-the-interior-bureau-of-land-management.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/07b98ca9-9caf-41f4-870b-787fdd8bc202/us-fish-and-wildlife-service.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f86c1fc24b9158ebe6c34b/93ba39cf-5b80-4321-a9d3-4269a01b4ca0/us-national-park-service.png About https://www.respect-wildlife.org/resources daily 0.75 2021-10-18 https://www.respect-wildlife.org/contact daily 0.75 2021-09-13
