Forest suffering

On Pier No. 39 in San Francisco, sea lions live a quarter of a century. If in 1989 there were about a dozen, then now the settlement has about 1,500 individuals. At first, they caused irritation from local yachtsmen, who interfered the smells and noise, but the city authorities stood on the side of animals: equipped their cozy rookers from wooden boards, and the yacht parking was moved to another place. As a result, lions and tourists are satisfied. Sometimes the lions leave the pier, but always return again, staying one of the most ill-felt attractions of the world. There were cases when they bouse swimsuchikov.

Abkhazia — Cows and Mustanga

Abkhazia — Another country of nonpougly cows. They hips the grass on the side of the roads, they graze peacefully or even sleep on the roadway, looking for delicacies on garbage and gracefully climb on the slopes of mountains and hills. No religious background, just inhabitants so comfortable: the cow is grazing all day, and in the evening he comes home to the boil.

Another zoodicovinku of Abkhazia — Herd of wild horses, freely jumping throughout the country. They may appear suddenly on the road or suck on a light-headed beach of some village.

Berlin — Boars, deer, foxes, hares, raccoons

In Berlin, in recent years, there has been an invasion of wild animals: boars, foxes, hares and deer move from forests closer to green city parks and bows. Residents are very loyal: trying to feed animals, stroke, take a picture. At first, the police were going to shoot kabanov, but the whole city got up on their defense, and also it turned out that the usual bullet does not take them, but only angry. As a result, the animals are calmly walking around the city, diverse feed on and uncontrollable, and, although such a neighborhood is not entirely safe, people learn to live with animals. The most innocuous animals — Hares and raccoons. Cassel is considered the capital of German rassels, the total population in the country has up to 500,000 individuals. According to scientists, 43% of raccotes populations «illegally» spend the night in houses, sheds or garages, what the owners do not even know. Zoologists are insistently asking not to feed and do not touch wild animals, and teachers teach drivers to go around deer on the roads.

The last time the flock of boars I saw on the street near my house two days ago, when I returned home at night. On the lawn in the middle of the road Passe the brood of wild pigs: two adults and five to six teenagers. That day it was already the third communication with wildlife in the city. At noon in the very center of Berlin between the Central Station and the building of the Administration of Chancellor Merkel, I met wild fox (the place corresponds to the Moscow metro «Kropotkinskaya» or «Arbat»), And one more fox has overwhelmed me the road at night when I drove home.
