  • Birding & Watchable Wildlife
    Viewing Ethics arkansas Keep your distance. This applies to any wildlife. Binoculars and scopes allow visitors good views without getting too close. Approach wildlife slowly, quietly and indirectly. Always leave animals an avenue for retreat. If your presence causes animals Birding & to change their behavior, you are too close. The Red-cockaded Woodpecker and the Ivory-billed Woodpecker are endangered species. Please remain at a sufficient distance from their nesting/roosting trees so as not to interfere with their activities. Watchable Respect nesting sites and dens. Well-meaning but intrusive visitors may cause parents to flee, leaving young animals vulnerable to the elements or predators. Stay on designated trails. Wildlife Leave young animals alone. Although they appear to be alone, parents are usually waiting nearby. Leave pets at home. They may chase, startle or even kill wildlife. Don’t feed animals. Animals survive best on their natural foods. Animals that get hooked on handouts may eventually lose their fear of campers or even poachers. Respect the rights of landowners. Many of the sites in this guide are adjacent to private land. Pull as far off roadways as you can and remain in your vehicle. Don’t venture onto private property unless you have obtained permission from the landowner. Don’t damage fences and leave gates as you find them. Respect the rights of other viewers. Keep quiet. If other people are viewing, allow them to enjoy a high-quality experience, too. Leave places in better condition than you found them. If you find litter, pick it up and dispose of it properly.
