Disclosed herein are methods and systems to avoid collisions with animals. In an example, a method comprises receiving, by a processor, an indication that a current trajectory of an autonomous vehicle is associated with a likelihood of a collision that satisfies a collision threshold indicating a potential collision with an animal having an attribute that satisfies a threshold; disabling, by the processor, at least one lighting apparatus associated with the autonomous vehicle; and enabling, by the processor, a sound-generating device associated with the autonomous vehicle.
