Wildlife Feeding Ban

To address the increasing amount of deer, and wildlife, the 2015 Wildlife Management Ordinance imposes a feeding ban on wild animals typically found in Roseville. The feeding ban includes:

 

  • Distributing one or more gallons of grains, vegetables, fruits, nuts, or hay within a 24-hour period is prohibited
  • Having a salt lick at a location that regularly attracts wild animals is prohibited
  • Note: The ordinance includes an exemption for small backyard bird feeders
