Brea’s planning new rules for managing wildlife in the city.

On March 5, the Brea City Council was set to approve a new ordinance that makes it against the law to feed or leave out food for any non-domesticated mammalian predators, including coyotes, raccoons, foxes, possums and non-domesticated rodents. Don’t worry, your pet hamsters, rats and mice are exempt, but if you set out food for wildlife, you would be breaking the law in Brea and could be cited.

The new ordinance is part of a Coyote Management Plan first voted on last month by the City Council and includes Wildlife Watch. Wildlife Watch is similar to Neighborhood Watch.
