Just part of the evolutionary process, men will adapt and be okay.
If you go into the woods today,
You’re in for a big surprise……..
So it’s climate change not man’s ever expanding push into wild animals living space? Animals have been pushing back into their old territories for a long time. One of the most successful at it has been the Coyote who are not afraid of man and have made a number of high profile attacks on children and adults. But whatever, I would chalk this up to the climate of change rather than some BS scam of climate change.
Nope.
When people build roads and then homes where coyotes have always roamed, why are they surprised when the coyotes go after their pets?
The coyotes have not always roamed in those areas.
Seems perfectly logical to me.
Possibly because you don't know what is going on?
Perhaps it is because the number of animals is increasing.
I know this is not what disney wants you to believe but it is true.
There are a lot more wild animals in the Eastern US then there were in the 100 years prior.
And even more being brought in by WEF nitwits who want to "re-wild" areas where humans live.
The author must be off his meds.....
Where I live it is semi rural. Lots of farm land that surrounds me. Lots of wildlife here, too. Not just coyotes. Deer, raccoons, possums, skunks, groundhogs, bobcats, foxes, wild turkeys, owls, hawks, etc, etc. There’s a creek running through my very wooded backyard. I see these animals on a daily basis.
Our town wants to buy up some of that farmland behind my property, and build a road on the other side of the creek. Pretty sure when that happens the folks that buy those new dinky little slivers of land will be surprised to find all these creatures joining them and their pets.
You may be right that some people are bringing them in to some areas, but I think these particular critters have been here for a while, and that this is their home that humans have built into. I think if you ask the farmers around here, they’ll agree with me.
Are they increasing in number? I have no idea. There’s a fairly steady number of deer out here. As the new ones are born each year, the older ones die or are killed for food.
Maybe you’re right though. I’m certainly no expert.
I was in my tree stand when a squirrel jumped down on my head. He then went from my shoulder back to the tree and too the ground. It was warm for late October that day.
They drink in Ireland, no?
You’re calculating total earth surface.
If only habital land is used,
That works out to 2.3 acres per person.
Sounds like it is the humans home and the animals have moved in on them.
The farms have been around for a long time, and so have the animals. They have coexisted for a while. More recently, new homes are being built on old farm land. My point is the urban sprawl is coming to the farmland. The wildlife has been here all along. People who move into these areas are surprised by the presence of coyotes and bobcats and such, that see a nice meal from the family pet.
