Local Wildlife
Development of land is pushing our wild neighbors out of once green and open spaces closer to our neighborhoods. Wildlife is finding the means to adapt and thrive closer and closer to cities. Animal Services plays a role in increasing people’s understanding and enjoyment of our wild neighbors and promoting a safe coexistence of both our citizens and urban wildlife.
For wildlife removal and rehabilitation services, residents are encouraged to contact the Texas Parks & Wildlife. The link to the Fort Bend County Game Warden can be found below:

Migratory Birds
Texas falls within the route between the United States and Canada for migratory birds. These birds typically arrive between February and March and will begin looking for a place to nest, called “Roosting”. This activity can bring many challenges such as loud noise, strong smells, and a huge quantity of excrement that can cover sidewalks, streets, and public and private property alike.
