Moose and bear don't actually show up that often - usually about two bears a year and maybe a moose every two or three years. All the rest of the critters are commonly seen in the city. The beavers and racoons are real pests. There is a herd of about 300 deer living in a large forest preserve in the southern part of the city.
sounds beautiful. I will have to come visit
Something else for the bucket list
