The collective of Tulsa wildlife issues are unique to the area - as are all Oklahoma and regional nuisance wildlife management dilemmas from place to place. Topography, climate, population, socio-economic factors and building trends - these are just a few of the things that can have an influence on what kind of wildlife an area might attract, as well as, what kind of problems that wildlife might create for the people who live there.

Within and around Tulsa in particular, the Arkansas River, combined with the many creeks and ponds in the area, provide wildlife with a plentiful supply of drinking water. And houses built within the city's urban forest environment help provide wildlife with plenty of places to call home.

Some neighborhoods have more of some types of wildlife than other neighborhoods. For instance, armadillos are much more common in Owasso than they are in Tulsa. However, skunk problems are more widespread and are a typical problem in almost all of Tulsa, Jenks, the outskirts of Broken Arrow and Broken Arrow's 71st and Lynn Lane area. Sapulpa, Bixby, Owasso, Sand Springs, and Jenks all experience skunk issues as they are widely spread and smelled in every part of Oklahoma. feral cats, opossums, and snakes can also cause problems for Tulsans.
