In Pennsylvania you have a greater chance of getting hit by a Deer. They're all over the place. I once was on a trail in Valley Forge and was joined by a Deer who trotted alongside me. I know of someone whose car was rammed by one.
In New Jersey, guard your food at the Jersey Shore. If not a Sea Gull will swoop in and attack it.
In New York City there are Coyotes in Central Park.
However here, in South Florida, my Jeep has Crabs.
And truth be told, all of the above are in South Florida. Including Fox, Ball Python, Parrots, Ducks, Chickens, and more. I've seen each of them. I have been told to shut up by a Cherry Headed Amazon parrot before.
I told someone just yesterday when he was amazed at the crows here to "Make friends with them, they bring you gifts".
Apparently my house though has a crab living on the property. I step outside the door to inspect my Jeep. I do that frequently because the car is 22 years old and it likes that. I look for any wildlife on my porch and spot the little critter. Kind of pretty. Looks like something you might see on a Maryland license plate.
This one has a blue stripe across it's body. Carapace.
And it did not like me being there so it ran off. Under my Jeep.
I did leave it alone, I do that. After all, a Crab will eat up the nasties here like the Termites that were swarming a couple weeks back, and other things that may show up when you have a lot of nature nearby.
Luckily nothing too threatening here although I have run into a cougar or two. She wanted to buy me a drink. Thanks, I'm good.
