(44~46) One night in December 2011, a bear came into the city of Vancouver in Canada. It walked through the city streets pasthouses, shops and offices. Then it found some food in garbage cans outside a restaurant and started eating. In the morning,someone saw the bear and called the police. The police came with a vet from the city zoo. They put the bear in a truck and took itto the mountains outside the city. Luckily, the bear was safe. But what happens in other countries when big animals come intocities? In Vancouver it is
unusual to see a bear, but in some cities, you can see big animals on the city streets every day. Big animals usually come into cities to find food. In Cape Town in South Africa baboons come into the city when they arehungry. They go into gardens and eat fruit from trees. They even go into houses and take food from cupboards and fridges!Baboons are strong animals and they can scare people. But the city can be dangerous for baboons, too. Sometimes, cars andbuses kill baboons in accidents. Human food is very bad for the baboons’ teeth because it has a lot of sugar. Now, there areBaboon Monitors working in Cape Town. Their job is to find baboons in the city and return them to the countryside. In Berlin in Germany, pigs sometimes come into the city to look for food. They eat flowers and plants in parks and gardens.Sometimes they eat vegetables from gardens and they walk in the street and cause accidents. Some people like the pigs and theygive them food and water to drink. Other people do not like the pigs and they want the government and the police to stop thementering the city. In Moscow in Russia, there are 35,000 wild dogs. The dogs live in parks, old houses, markets and train stations. Some dogslive in groups and others live alone. Many people in Moscow like the dogs. They give them food and water. Some people makesmall houses for the dogs in their gardens. This helps the dogs in winter, when the temperature in Moscow is -10 ºC and there is alot of snow and ice. Many animals live in cities. In some cities, you can see birds, insects, mice and squirrels every day. But sometimes, it isdangerous when big animals come into cities to find food. We need to find ways of stopping animals coming into the city withouthurting them.
