It is not necessary to go into the back woods to encounter wildlife as there is a lot of urban wildlife about. I used to live in Toronto, Ontario, Canada were late one night as I was walking home where my abode was an an apartment on the 26th floor of a high rise building. I saw what I first thought was a wierd looking dog walking across the street about 50 feet in front of me. This creature realized I was looking at it rather intensely so it scurried away, at that point I realized it was a coyote and not a dog.

Rob Taylor,

I wonder how those animal rights activists would feel if someone they really cared about got attacked by one of those animals they claim to love. I wonder if they would still feel same way.

I’m no Theist, but I’ve heard some Jewish Theists state that G-d controls the animals to do unnessary and unexplained behaviors noramlly which they wouldn’t do.
