The ODNR Division of Wildlife and wildlife rehabilitators around the state have received calls from people who have found, what they believe to be, an “orphaned” wildlife animal. In most cases these animals are not orphans. Most people don’t realize that wild animals often leave their young unattended to draw predators away from the young animals, and only return to feed them. By removing these young from the wild, people are actually taking them away from the parents.

If you are also a current subscriber to the hunting, fishing and wildlife watcher sections of the eNewsletters, you can choose to follow the NEW Your
Wild Ohio Hunter, Your Wild Ohio Angler, or Your
Wild Ohio Explorer Facebook pages. Each page contains details about the
specific part you play in conserving Ohio’s wildlife and habitats. Follow one,
or follow them all. Not into social media? You won't be left out! The news and articles posted to
social media will also be posted on our website. In
addition, you can choose to receive all of this information in one convenient
news feed by subscribing to our RSS Feed
using your favorite RSS Feed Reader or app, or you can choose to receive updates via email.
Unfortunately, the Wild Ohio eNewsletter is being discontinued as of June 2015. This difficult decision was made based on high monetary costs of email software, low open rates of emails, and a decreasing interest in wildlife stories in their current format.
We apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment caused by discontinuing the eNewsletters and fishing reports, but we hope you enjoy the similar, and more timely information that is being provided via the communication channels above.
Thank you for continuing to support Ohio's wildlife!
