Wildlife Community Conversation Survey

McCall City Council has added new members since we last visited the wildlife conversation in 2021. They are eager to hear from the local community about how they would like to coexist with local wildlife. Whether you support or oppose a feeding ordinance, we encourage you to share your thoughts. Please note that feedback will be used as guidance to support a healthy and wild deer population in and around McCall, not to eradicate deer. Thank you in advance for taking the time.
