With spring here and native wildlife more active, Peachtree City is advising residents to leave foxes alone. City Hall has received reports of fox sightings, but none involved aggressive or rabid animals.

The city does not trap or remove native species living in natural areas of the community. However, animals that appear sick or aggressive (unless defending a den) can be reported to 911.

Residents are reminded that bird feeders attract both birds and mice, which in turn can attract foxes.
