Protect Wildlife
Sites 1–319: Limited to six people, three tents, and two vehicles.
Trenching and digging: To prevent erosion, ground disturbance is not permitted.

Pets: Must be kept on a leash and under physical control at all times. For the safety of your pet, do not leave them unattended. Pets are not permitted below the rim, on shuttle buses, or in buildings.
Grand Canyon hosts a variety of wildlife— elk, deer, ravens, ground squirrels, and even mountain lions. To ensure healthy wildlife and to protect your belongings:
Hanging items: All clotheslines, hammocks, and sports nets must be taken down when not in immediate use.
Food: Store food and trash in your vehicle or hardsided containers. Hanging trash sacks from trees does not keep them out of the reach of ravens. Do not leave pet food outside.
Trash: Deposit in the green dumpsters. Do not leave trash unattended—ravens and other animals will scatter it. You are responsible for cleaning up your site.
