2. Deer
Deer are some of the cutest wild animals that you could see, and each time I see one, I think about nature and Disney movies. You might expect to see deer somewhere in the woods, or maybe in your garden, eating your gorgeous plants, but would you expect to see them in the city while you’re out and about?
Speaking of plants, deer flock to cities due to hunger, and it’s no surprise to see them on your lawn, having a feast out of your shrubs. They also do that because the wilderness lands have shrunk in the last couple of years, and according to experts, these wild animals believe that it’s safer for them to come to the city because there are fewer mountain lions there, and those are their main predators.
Even though not many cougars are bold enough to start an adventure in the city, it’s still not okay to have that many deer residents in our neighborhoods. Not only do they eat your shrubs, but they also dash in front of cars during the night, causing dangerous accidents.

Leave the willing alone! Get rid of the people!
Yes, wild animals ARE in the cities!! I live in Huntsville, AL. Just two miles from the center of down town. I regularly have rabbits, foxes, turtles, (no streams, ponds or lakes in the immediate area), possums, raccoons, and small snakes, in my back yard. Along with about 15 different types of birds, including owls, hawks, eagles and falcons.
No deer yet, but with the amount of wooded areas near by, I would not be surprised if they show up too!
Alligators, coyotes, black bears, mountain lions, armadillos and deer have been reported within the city limits. Wow! Such an abundance of wildlife!!
Just a minute! Who is invading whom? We have been steadily usurping the territories of the other beings who inhabit the planet. Clearly the more developed of creatures are now fighting back.
Deer also carry ticks, which carry Lyme disease. Bambi is evil, and it, along with its relatives, should be wiped out.
