"'Wild in the streets'
Wildlife is encroaching on suburbia: What have you seen in your backyard? Send You Witness News your photos."
Ummm....wildlife is encroaching on suburbia? I think it's the other way around there, geniuses! Suburbia is encroaching on wildlife! This headline speaks volumes; A perfect example our consumer society's ignorant, short-sighted, self-centered mindset.
For example, here in Southern CA over-crowding, over-development, traffic, congestion, and urban sprawl are disgustingly out of control. People encroach on the habitats of wildlife,...and then act shocked and outraged when the mountain lion hops the backyard fence and mauls the family dog! Duh! What did you expect? You've taking away its habitat, its hunting grounds, and the habitat of its food supply. The poor thing has to eat, after all. But instead of learning to live sustainably and in harmony with nature, stupid humans consume like crazy and spread urban sprawl ever further. Sad, eh?
