EXERCISE 5 - Impact of Animal FeedingSome facts
Food that is good for us is not necessarily good for native animals.ManyvisitorstoGreenPatchignoretheParksignsthatsayplease do not feed native animals.BoodereeisaNationalPark,whichmeansthatitsanimallifeisnativeandwildandthereforeshouldnotbefed.Feedingcancausearangeofnegativeeffectsonnativeanimals.Someoftheseare–itcanproducenutritionalimbalancesintheirdiet,causediseases,canencourageoverpopulation,aggressivebehaviourandcanencourageanimalsthatnormallyarenomadictobecomesedentary.

A simple action like feeding birds can lead to various negative impacts. Some of these are;
1. Human food is unhealthy for native wildlife.AlotofvisitorswhobreakParkrulesandfeedbirdsandkangaroosandpossumstendtofeedthemseeds(suchassunflowerseeds)andprocessedbreads.Sunflowerseeds,forexample,areveryhighinoilsandwheneatenregularlycanbeveryharmfultonativebirds.Regularandexcessiveconsumptionofsuchseedscancauseproblemssuchasboneorbeakdeformation.Kangaroosandpossumsarestrictlyherbivorouswhichmeanstheyeatarangeofgrasses,leavesetc…Feedingkangaroosbread,cakeandsausagesisveryunhealthyforthem.Theyeastinbreadandthesoftnessofbread(wheneatenregularly)canleadtomajorguminfections.Oncetherearegumproblemsitonlytakesahardenedgrainortwigtopuncturethegumallowingthedisease“lumpyjaw”toinfectthekangaroosgum.Thiscanbefatalforthem.
2. Animals become reliant on feedingsoinquietperiodssomeoftheseanimalssufferfromstarvation.
