I live in a wooded area. We have coyotes that have moved into the area that we did not have 10 years ago. Right now no one is really having a problem with them because they are out in the woods eating their natural prey. The problem is that there are no natural predators left to keep the number in check. There used to be mountain lions in the area but they are mostly all gone except for an occasional spotting now and then way up in game lands. It is a serious problem when they get into a neighborhood setting since there is no natural prey for them so they start hunting anything that moves.
It would be nice if humans would start thinking of the consequences of what happens when they destroy the natural habitat of the wild creatures. The animals are going to go some where and no one wants them in their backyard. |
