Galloway Township does not publish a standalone wildlife-feeding ban, but feeding that attracts nuisance or dangerous wildlife (deer, bears, feral animals) is reachable under its general nuisance and property-maintenance provisions. New Jersey separately regulates black-bear feeding, which is prohibited statewide.
The Township's animal code centers on dogs, livestock, and animals at large; it does not set a dedicated 'do not feed wildlife' section. However, feeding that draws deer, raccoons, or other wildlife into a neighbor-affecting nuisance can be abated under Galloway's general nuisance and property-maintenance chapters. At the state level, New Jersey's Fish & Wildlife rules prohibit feeding black bears (N.J.A.C. 7:25-5) and discourage feeding that creates public-safety or health hazards. Galloway sits in the Pinelands region with active wildlife, so residents should secure trash and avoid deliberate feeding that concentrates animals near homes.
No specific Township wildlife-feeding fine schedule; nuisance abatement applies via general code. State black-bear feeding violations carry NJDEP penalties. General animal/nuisance violations can reach fines up to $2,000.
