Sounds like your area is similar to ours.
We have deer and elk herds wandering our neighborhood and, honestly, I think they need to be thinned out.
I love seeing the animals but there are so many here that it can be dangerous. I think that here the elk pose the highest danger for humans.
I’ve seen more bunnies the last two years than before and it may have something to do with the disappearance of our foxes. Foxes were common but became overpopulated and then they had a mange epidemic and died out. I miss seeing them. Now that they’re gone, I hope that coyotes don’t replace them. There’s already been one sighted in our neighborhood.
I never thought I’d live in a place where when I go outside at night I’m sure to make noise to run off the wild things! Lol!
A rat the size of a Buick just crossed the subway platform...that’s my critter report for today. ;)
