There are many reasons these signs are found so often and in so many different places. One of the many obvious reasons is because if people tossed food over fences all day to animals then those animals would become dependent on these random handouts. They would get used to these random and aimless treats and lose all sense of the intended diet they had followed before. This sort of behavior would eventually come to be expected and accepted as perfectly natural. And, one day, if it ever stopped, the animals would begin to growl, hiss, chirp, bark, or make whatever sounds it is they make when they are angry, unable to understand why random pieces of food were no longer being tossed over their fences for no particular reason.

If you put a bowl of milk and a can of tuna out for a stray cat on your doorstep one night, you may as well accept the fact that you have a new pet. That cat is going to come back hungrier and hungrier. And should you ever decide to stop feeding that cat one night, it will sit at your door and meow for hours unable to understand why the  free milk it did nothing to deserve and the tuna that had no reason to be there in the first place is no longer there.

Our president is that bratty, inconsiderate kid that keeps throwing Cheetos over the fence at the zoo. He is the misled neighbor that keeps feeding the stray cats that keep you up at night.
