12PROTECT THE LORD OF OUR FORESTS
Because its territory goes beyond the national park, we wish to clarify its interactions
with humans. We also document its possible cohabitation methods. Recent studies
show that the fragmentation of forests, hunting, trapping and road accidents threaten
the survival of wolf packs. The Secrets de loup talk provides an assessment of the
current situation of this great predator.
The wolf is at the top of the food
chain and thus the lord of our forests.
This great carnivore is essential to
the equilibrium of ecosystems.

WHITE-TAILED DEER,
WHEN LOVE AND FOOD HARMS YOU
White-tailed deers may be adorable, but careful, keep your distance! From apples
to carrots, from pictures to tender words, a few white-tailed deers have become
accustomed to interacting with humans. These actions have made them dependant,
perhaps vulnerable, and this modifies their behaviour. They may also be spreading
parasites and diseases, or inflicting injuries. They are also too often victims of road
accidents. Wild animals must remain so to live healthy and prolong their life span.
Feeding them and cuddling them may ultimately make them die. Please, walk away
from the animals that try to approach you.
