Feeding wildlife discouraged in Livermore. Feeding deer, coyotes, raccoons, and turkeys can trigger nuisance designation. CDFW prohibits deer feeding statewide.
California Fish and Game Code §251.3 prohibits feeding big game mammals including deer, and CDFW regulations discourage feeding any wildlife that may become habituated to humans. Livermore's proximity to open space, Altamont Pass, and rural edges brings frequent wildlife encounters — mountain lions, coyotes, wild turkeys, and deer. Intentional feeding that creates a nuisance or safety hazard can result in abatement orders under LMC nuisance provisions. Bird feeding is generally permitted but must not attract rodents.
