People often wonder about the reasons behind this mass urban?migration. Most of us would assume that urban development?and climate change are responsible for pushing the animals out of their natural habitats.

Wherever they go, animals find towns and cities in?their way. With nowhere else to make their homes, they have no?choice but to move in with us.
