I took a picture out in front of a favorite coffee shop of mine, this morning, and am posting here since it fits in with the woodland critters theme.

Last night, I had to drive up onto an embankment to pick up a train crew, within a mile or two of downtown Chicago. As I went up the ramp, my headlights caught the movement of a small critter. A big city rat, I thought at first, with slight revulsion and no sympathy. But then I realized it wasn't scurrying away from me, it was hopping. That is really not a good place for a rabbit to be: no soft earth to dig a hole in, no grass to nibble on, and single digits Fahrenheit. No, bunny, don't cross the track to get away from me, go back down the ramp and across the street to where you probably live.

Sorry if this a repost, thought it might be of interest to the local fauna :

The 12 season one's eps are all, presently, freely accessible on the CBC's website, though you might have to use a proxy server if you are geoblocked.

In Stockholm we have an immigration problem from Canada Geese.

Canada geese - litter and noise problems but also dinner.

I have a coworker that thinks geese go good on the dinner plate. Just not enough room in the freezer.

Canadian geese are a problem in many parks in our area. They never go home! They also poop everywhere.

Canadian Geese cam be hunted in California - the problem is, that you can't hunt the birds causing the trouble in city parks or other well-populated areas,
as there is too much chance of hitting people with your shot... A 10 guage or a 3" magnum 12 guage shotgun is the recommended choice...
