In many locations around the world, people have been staying at home to quarantine themselves to avoid the spread of the Coronavirus. The lack of people in the streets has prompted some animals to take advantage, and roam freely around the cities and towns, as if saying it is their turn to enjoy. While most of these stray animals are harmless, some of them are dangerous predators, most likely looking for food and expanding their hunting grounds. Bears, pumas, wolves, and even some alligators have been reported in some places. The lack of people has prompted these animals to brave our cities. Let’s take a look at some of these pictures of unusual creatures in our territory, all around the globe.
