Sightings of wild
fauna in expanding cities have raised an alarm among city authorities and environmenatalists
alike. They fear unwarranted consequences of such intermingling of humans and
wild creatures. Some have
gone to the extent of suggesting that wild animals and birds should be shifted out of cities though there are voicees
of dissent.
Shifting wildlife
out of the cities seems to be a viable option, a suitable safegaurd for the
wild creatures: instances involving interaction of humans and wild creatures have
only resulted in poor wild creatures being at a receiving end. The bahavior of
humans has been proven to be quite insensitive whenever these wild beings have
intruded spaces of men: they have either shot or mowed down the animals and
birds.
Furthermore,
presence of these wild beings in the urbanized locations is also perceived as a
threat to the public safety. There have been occasions when a stray carnivoran
mammal, or bird has threatened humans, and caused distress. To avoid such
instances, it henceforth becomes necessary to move such beings out, to ensure
that they and humans remain away, at a distance, from each other.
However, many
environmetalists consider such a move to be quite brutal in intent: it is
humans who have invaded the space of wild fauna. If there is some threat, it is
not to human beings, but to those animals and birds who have been stripped of
their natural habitats; and now they have nowhere to go. Moving them out of the
places might take them nearer to complete disappearance, for it is not clear
whether they would be ablt adapt to a new environment successfully.
To conclude, I
feel, that wild
animals and birds should be allowed to stay in the cities though in some
protected environments.
