When wanting to take pictures of the wildlife, make sure to take pictures from a safe area or in the safety of your vehicle. The rangers at the Grand Canyon do not want people feeding the animals. This is because they do not want the wildlife that lives there to become dependant on people feeding them instead of hunting for their own food. So make sure never to feed or approach the wildlife and also make sure, if you have pets with you, that they stay on their leash at all times. This protects you and your pets.
