A wildlife guard, designed to prevent an electrically grounded animal, such as a bird or small mammal, from contacting energized electrical equipment. A one-piece construction fabricated from an insulating material, such as a high-density polyethylene, the wildlife guard can be installed on energized electrical equipment using standard live-line tools, thereby obviating the need to shut down the electrical power. The guard includes inner protrusions to fit below the topmost skirt of an insulator bushing, outer protrusions to be grabbed by a live-line tool, and a lengthwise slot through which a conductor is forced during installation.
