7. Snakes
Some people consider snakes wild animals, while others say that they’re the perfect pets. Regardless of which category you find yourself in, you probably won’t be very excited to see a snake having fun in your hot tub or swimming pool.
Many snake species adore water, and they won’t miss the chance to enjoy a splash, so take care of your hot tub or swimming pool if you have any. In Miami, for instance, the fire department removed hundreds of pythons from swimming pools. While these snakes aren’t exactly dangerous to humans, they can surely give you a panic attack due to their impressive size—up to 12 feet in length.
Experts say that people are also responsible for the large number of pythons that are in the city because, when they can no longer keep them as pets, they release these huge snakes into nature.

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.
