If you have any questions about the wildlife of Sacramento, you can contact the California Wildlife Commission, sometimes called the California Fish & Wildlife Agency. California game wardens address many wildlife management matters, from hunting licenses, to poaching, endangered species, and Sacramento wildlife management. They deal with wild animals outside the range of a pest control company, such as cougars or bears. If you have a problem with nuisance wildlife in Sacramento like squirrels, snakes, bats, or raccoons, the state agency is very unlikely to help. You need to hire a private company (here are their prices) such as Sacramento Wildlife Control at 916-603-5794.

California is much more than just pristine white beaches and striking sunsets. The state, which actually has a good bit of snow despite rumors, is home to some of the most stunning landscapes in the country. As you might expect, this means it is also home to a host of interesting animals. Not only does California have dolphins and a huge population of seagulls, it also has large predators like grizzly bears. Unfortunately, because the state is such a hotspot for tourists, most of the animals in California have the potential to become pests.

There are some animals that seem to be present in almost every state, if not much of North America. Some of these critters, like raccoons, are also found in California. But while California has bats, coyotes, squirrels, rabbits, and other common wild animals, it also has some unique creatures that are not found in other areas of the country. Because of its classification as a coastal state, California must face the predicaments associated with a variety of sea lion and seal species. Most of these are shy toward people; however, the pups are common prey for larger animals like foxes and coyotes, animals that can pose a disease or attack threat to humans.

Southern California is notoriously warm for most of the year, despite the frigid temperatures and prevailing snow in the mountain regions. For this reason, many amphibians and reptiles thrive in the state. There are frogs and toads by the dozens, including the California chorus frog and the Cascades frog. There are also numerous salamanders, snakes, and turtles. The desert tortoise, the state's recognized reptile, can survive in areas with temperatures up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit.

As you can imagine, depending on the region of California, pest animals can appear from any species. People living near the coasts will find themselves more inundated with aquatic critters, while people in the rural mountain regions will wage war with bears and coyotes. Those somewhere in the middle will find a good number of venomous snakes, like the rattlesnake, and unlimited numbers of raccoons, skunks, and other scavengers. The most commonly removed critters are raccoons, bats, pigeons, skunks, and a variety of birds including woodpeckers, swallows, and seagulls. Like many other areas with a diverse climate, the west coast of the United States has one of the highest rates of human-animal conflict. This is not just because of the dense animal population, but more due to the dense human population that is continually growing.

Sacramento Wildlife Tip
What Can You Do About A Rodent In Crawl Space - If you have discovered rodents in your attic, you may well also have them in your crawl space. Once rodents take up residence in a new home they love to explore and investigate their new surroundings. Any small gap or hole from your attic to other areas of the house will be used as an entryway by your rodent population. If you do have rodents in the crawl space you may well be able to hear them scrambling and scampering around. It is imperative that you address the infestation as quickly and efficiently as possible - the crawl space in your home contains much of the essential wiring for your home as well as cables for the air conditioning and heating.

In order to deal with rodents in the crawl space of your home you will first have to undertake a little detective work. Spend a few early mornings watching your rodents coming and going - this is so that you can discover how the rodents are getting in and out of your home. You should be able to identify the favored route used by the rodents and will be able to set traps at this entryway in order to catch and release, or kill, all of your unwanted visitors.

Sacramento, CA Wildlife News Clip:
Wildlife - Birds, fawns and a BAT living on the wild side in Sacramento

Raccoon said she discourages visitors, including school kids. "People have a hard time understanding that this is a hospital and not an educational center," she said. "Wild animals don't do well with people staring at them; it stresses them out." She said she once watched a rescued, dog-chased fawn die from heart failure simply because of being stressed around people. California has an abundance of wildlife, and Sacramento is no exception.

"The dog hadn't even touched the fawn and it had just come from the vet," she said. "But it was so stressed out that it just died. Even jackrabbits will die from stress." Why does she do what she does? "I get a sense of being grounded and connected," Raccoon said. "And I'm good at not making pets of them. I've learned a tremendous amount by caring for these animals. I notice more things in nature and it makes me feel that I matter. That I'm making a difference." Although several species of wildlife roam Sacramento, only a few, such as raccoons and squirrels, are considered pest wildlife.

In addition to the Rose Wolf Rehabilitation Center, other area wildlife rescue centers include the San Joaquin Raptor Rescue Center in Merced and the Sacramento Wildlife Care Center in Hughson. Raccoon, who is in the process of building a giant aviary for recovering raptors, sees her work continuing indefinitely."Well," she said, "I'm assuming we'll grow, since the more people there are, the more they will conflict with animals and the more the animals will need our help." Remember to treat the wild animals of Sacramento, California, with respect.

Sacramento, California was founded in December of 1848 and rapidly grew into a metropolitan area during the gold rush. The California State Legislature named Sacramento the state capital in 1854 largely due to its prosperous link to the Pony Express and Transcontinental Railroad. The oldest part of the city is Sutter's Fort, followed by Old Sacramento, which is located between Interstate 5and the Sacramento River. Old Sacramento State Historic Park consists of cobbled streets and some historic buildings. Today, Sacramento enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate, growing population, and a bustling economy in the heart of the state of California and historic Central Valley. The city also has a reputation as a center for Dixieland jazz, because of the Sacramento Jazz Jubilee which is held every Memorial Day weekend.
