📢Reminder for all visitors to Signal Hill: Please do not approach or feed foxes or other wildlife - this is illegal and for good reason.

Feeding foxes may feel like you’re helping, but it actually harms them. Human food is not appropriate for wild animals – it lacks the nutrients they need and can cause illness or poor health. It can also lead to dependency, reducing their natural ability to hunt and find food in the wild.

Feeding foxes teaches them to approach people and vehicles in search of food, increasing the risk of injury, and conflict with humans if they become too bold.
