Name a common human habit that attracts nuisance wildlife.

Leaving pet food outdoors is a common habit that can attract nuisance wildlife. When pet food is left outside, it creates an easy and accessible food source for various animals such as raccoons, squirrels, and feral cats. These animals are opportunistic feeders and will take advantage of available food, leading to an increased presence of wildlife in residential areas.

This practice not only lures in unwanted animals but also increases the likelihood of interactions between wildlife and pets or humans, which can pose health risks and create safety concerns. Implementing measures to securely store pet food indoors and only feeding pets at specific times can help mitigate these issues and reduce attracting unwanted wildlife.

Other options, while they may play a role in attracting wildlife, do not have the same direct appeal and convenience for animals as leaving pet food outdoors does.
