It makes me wild when suburbanites are confronted and angered when they have an "uncomfortable" encounter with native wildlife.
A few weeks ago, in my neck of the wild woods, a fired-up kangaroo lashed out at a teenager in a suburb built near bush. Sure, it's horrible for the teen who was hurt, but maybe if we stop appropriating huge amounts of the roos' home (aka 'vacant' bush) for inefficient housing estates, we could all live in harmony.
Bats, possums, roos, snakes, spiders and wombats need somewhere to live, eat and thrive.
Take it away, and they'll plonk their furry, scaly arses in your suburban backyard.
