Utah DWR: ‘Report If You See THESE ANIMALS in Your Neighborhood’

There's nothing scarier than seeing a moose in your cul-de-sac. 

Moose don't ask your permission.

We think of them as cartoon characters or decor at mountain restaurants but we've all seen the videos.

This is why the Utah Department of Wildlife has a list of animals that you should report if you see them in your neighbor.

Moose!

These guys are killers!

According to the Utah DWR: (LINK TO FULL POST)

"You should report a moose that has wandered into lower-elevation areas and is within city limits or heavily-populated areas, so the DWR can relocate the animal."

Bears

Black bears are the ones you get big for, right? Raise your arms and yell and act like a drunk in the bleachers at Wrigley.

Grizzlies I think you just start digging your own grave.

Here's the DWR: (LINK TO FULL POST)

"Similar to cougars, black bears can also be found in the foothill areas, canyons and other similar habitats throughout Utah. If bears are in these areas, they should only be reported if they are being aggressive or if they are getting into trash, fruit trees or causing damage."

Cougars

Horrifying.

Here's the DWR: (LINK TO FULL POST)

"You should report a cougar sighting if:

• It has killed something in a neighborhood or yard.
• It exhibits aggressive behavior.
• It appears several times on your security cameras."

And then here are some of the less dangerous ones that they still recommend reporting:

Deer, turkeys, bobcats, and birds of prey.

Turkeys can do horrible things to your property I guess

Birds of prey can get injured or they overeat roadkill and are in a food coma and can't fly away. If that's the case report it.
