Alberta's Most Trusted Wildlife Management Partner for Industry

For over three decades, Animal Damage Control has been the trusted name in professional wildlife management services throughout Alberta and Fort McMurray. Since 1990, we've built a reputation that speaks for itself — one resolved conflict at a time. Whether you're an industrial operator, an agricultural producer, or a government agency, our team brings the field experience and wildlife knowledge needed to protect your people, assets, and operations.

Wildlife conflicts don't wait for a convenient time, and neither do we. Our approach goes beyond simply responding to problems after they occur. We think proactively — identifying risks before they escalate and implementing strategies that deliver lasting results. That's what sets our wildlife management apart: we get the job done right, the first time.

Our Wildlife Management Strategies

At Animal Damage Control, we don't believe in a single-solution approach. Effective wildlife management requires the right combination of tools, timing, and expertise — applied by professionals who understand animal behaviour at a fundamental level. Our broad operational experience allows us to draw from a full toolkit of strategies, selecting and combining methods that best fit your specific situation, species, and environment.

Hazing & Deterrence

Non-lethal methods to discourage wildlife from returning to industrial sites, work camps, and operational areas.

Trapping & Relocation

Humane live capture and relocation programs for nuisance animals on industrial and remote sites.

Habitat Modification

Identifying and modifying environmental factors that attract wildlife to industrial and operational areas.

Monitoring & Surveillance

Ongoing wildlife monitoring programs to track movement and assess risk across large industrial footprints.

Lethal Control

Regulated lethal methods when non-lethal options are insufficient, carried out by licensed professionals in compliance with Alberta regulations.

Preventative Planning

Proactive risk assessments and wildlife management plans for new and existing industrial projects in the Wood Buffalo region.
