Ada's latest news

Hardin Co. field report from ODW officers

Recently, State Wildlife Officer Ryan Kennedy, assigned to Hardin County, has been reaching out to local landowners and reminding them to seal their homes and buildings to prepare for the upcoming wildlife nesting season.

Soon, litters of raccoons and other animals will be born and, in some cases, can cause unwanted damage or destruction to property. March is a great time to make sure homes and other buildings are secure as female animals will be searching for unsecured structures to make their nests. A little preventative maintenance can help with unwanted guests.
