Wildlife Invasions

The deserted streets of towns and cities across the world, resulting from the necessary human responses to the Covid-19 pandemic,  are reportedly filling up with wild mammals and birds (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/22/animals-cities-coronavirus-lockdowns-deer-raccoons). The beasties involved depend on geography but include Sika deer in Japan, raccoons and wild turkeys in the USA and Wild boar and Red foxes in Europe. All these animals appear to be creatures that normally live on the margins of built-up areas, commonly moving in under the cover of darkness. The marked reductions in human activity appear to have made them a lot less nervous. If you can go outside, it is said to be a good time to see wildlife.
