Macon GA Wildlife Information

Georgia Wildlife Commission: 706-557-3213

Georgia Game WardenIf you have any questions about the wildlife of Macon, you can contact the Georgia Wildlife Commission, sometimes called the Georgia Fish & Wildlife Agency. Georgia game wardens address many wildlife management matters, from hunting licenses, to poaching, endangered species, and Macon wildlife management. They deal with wild animals outside the range of a pest control company, such as cougars or bears. If you have a problem with nuisance wildlife in Macon like squirrels, snakes, bats, or raccoons, the state agency is very unlikely to help. You need to hire a private company (here are their prices) such as Pro X Wildlife Removal & Exclusion Services at 478-488-3003.


I also have listed several sources for free Macon wildlife help. One example, if you've found an injured animal or lost baby bird or other baby animal is the Macon Wildlife Rehabilitation Clinic: 478-320-6174 Or just read below for more info about the wild animals of Macon.

Georgia is a very hot, humid state, even in the regions of the north where mountains dot the landscape. It is full of lush vegetation, and has a variety of habitats. This state not only has tall, majestic forests, it also has Okefenokee Swamp, a 438,000 acre wetland on the Georgia-Florida border. As you might imagine, this swamp is home to a variety of creatures. These creatures, however, aren't just reptiles and amphibians. The marsh is made up of both wet and dry land, and mammals abound within its protected space. Okefenokee Swamp has black bears, white-tailed deer, and otters. It does, of course, have its fair share of water moccasin snakes, alligators, and turtles.

The rest of Georgia is also full of animals, and because the weather is so warm all year long, there is an abundance of reptiles and cold-blooded creatures not found in the northern states. Warm weather is also ideal for birds, and these birds can range in size from small robins to giant creatures with 8-foot wingspans.

Common pest animals in Georgia include armadillos, black bears, beavers, geese, coyotes, deer, wild hogs, rats, raccoons, squirrels, woodpeckers, and foxes. Not only do these animals enjoy what the warm temperatures have to offer as far as comfort, many of them live on the eggs and offspring from the array of reptiles, birds, and amphibians. Raccoons, in particular, are known to be raiders of nests in the hunt for eggs.

While there is an abundance of food year round for the creatures in this state, the human population of Georgia is so dense, contact with animals is inevitable. As people spread out into the wilds, animals find new ways to come by easy meals and easy shelter. Raccoons won't hesitate to leave the woods in favor of an attic when breeding season comes around, and all pest animals make special note of the homes that have garbage or food lying around outside.

In a state like Georgia, having small pest animals in the yard can eventually draw in larger predators. People living near bodies of water where alligators reside will regret having a plethora of small mammals lounging around the yard. It won't take long be the gator makes a mental note about where to get an easy meal.

Macon Wildlife Tip
When You Have Nothing Else To Do, Go Rodent Catching - Well, that's not really true. If you do go rodent catching, then you probably have good cause. If you have a rodent anywhere inside your house, you definitely want to get it out from there. Rodents are some of the cutest but also some of the most destructive little animals. They are just doing what rodents do. They have no design to make your life difficult. If they see an opportunity to have a more convenient nesting place, they take it. If your house happens to be part of that nesting place, the rodent won't mind.

To catch a rodent, you may want to get yourself a live trap. These can be purchased in different stores that sell hunting equipment. You may even find live traps in certain pet stores. Set your trap up in the attic or wherever your rodent lives. Bait the trap with the goodies rodents like. Peanut butter and bird seed is a good choice. Nuts may be also a temptation. After you have caught the rodent in the trap, take it for a ride. Drive at least several miles away your home so that the rodent won't find its way back. Then let it go into its new neighborhood.

MACON ANIMAL SERVICES - New county animal wildlife management habitat opens in Macon

"This may be really Pam's baby," said the Macon exterminating company expert. "She's spearheaded this the whole time." Groundbreaking occurred on May 6, 2004. The past its prime wildlife management habitat, which has been demolished, remained open during the construction. For more information, call the animal services of Macon, Georgia.

The 25,000-square-foot wildlife management habitat may be "finally a wildlife containment unit that may be worthy of the animals," declared The Macon exterminating company expert. The site may have been enlarged from 2.4 hectares to 4.4 hectares to accommodate more critter habitat and animal exercise areas, including a walking track. The facilities include a 1,000-square-foot lobby with a circular greeter's desk, seating for 16 and a separate intake area for animals. Though they may offer assistance with the cuddly wild critters, don't expect help with wildlife.

The animals are housed in comfortable, clean, and temperature-controlled quarters. There are 74 raccoon critter cages, each with heated epoxy floors, and eight separate units housing 74 opossums and baby squirrels, including two community habitats where opossums can socialize, climb large plants and play with toys.

There are areas for reptiles and amphibians, pocket wild animals such as mice and skunk pigs, and rabbits, as well as outdoor corrals for wild hogs, llamas, chickens and other livestock. There may be a holding wildlife containment unit with a separate entrance for use by the nonprofit Project Wildlife rescue organization. Bibb County animal services in Macon, Georgia, declined to comment on the situation.
