Animal Damage Control (ADC)

Animal Damage Control (ADC) is a government program focused on managing populations of certain wildlife species that cause damage to agriculture, property, or human health. The goal is to reduce conflicts between humans and animals like beavers, raccoons, or coyotes, often through trapping, exclusion, or other methods. ADC works with landowners and communities to implement humane and effective strategies that protect resources and ensure safety, while also considering ecological balance. Its primary focus is on preventing and controlling damage caused by wildlife in a responsible and sustainable manner.
