How many people are scared there dog or cat is going to be eaten when it gets let out side? This never used to be a problem. Now that cities and towns are taking away all of the natural habitat for wild animals we have began to see bears and coyotes along with other carnivorous animals  in our own back yards. Our small animals are not the only ones in danger, humans are too. These wild animals will do anything to get there next meal, even if it’s a small child. Most people think that this is the animals fault, and I disagree with that. I think that this is the fault of humans for taking away the natural habitat for these animals. If we weren’t taking there land away and building office building or apartments the animals wouldn’t be so close. These animals are going to take advantage of an easy meal, if it trash or our pets.
