Feeding wildlife, especially deer, has become more common and problematic recently in some areas in Alberta. Okotoks has a significant population of deer and could be subject to future problems if residents or visitors feed them. Problems linked to feeding wildlife arise when animals pursue people and occasionally threaten public safety. To report illegal feeding of deer, contact Municipal Enforcement at 403.938.8913.
