Here we have a brutal feedback loop with small predators and herbivores. Suburbanites poison their lawns, that poisons the fox prey, and the foxes become so weakened that I've never seen an adult this size with all of its fur. A lack of predation explodes the herbivore population, so many of our surviving rabbits are plagued by disease and our roads are full of squirrel corpses.

It's nice to see the alternative in greenspace like this. A couple minutes down the path a blue heron was fishing. Above the fox there are healthy bats/woodpeckers/hawks/owls in the biodiverse native forest, all of it municipally owned and free to access. The bike path is well-maintained and meets any need within 15 minutes. It links a few dozen parks where the developmental focus is more of this.

Communism begins with the garden city. I will kill and eat hair to achieve the garden city.
