These People Had Heartwarming Wildlife Encounters And Had To Share Them Online (50 New Pics)
If you live in a bustling and grey metropolis, you can spend entire days without meaningfully interacting with nature. However, if you slow down to appreciate your surroundings, you’re lucky enough to live in the suburbs or the countryside, or you take a trip out of town, you realize just how much biodiversity is around you.
Our animal-loving team at Bored Panda has traveled all over the internet to bring you some of the most wholesome wildlife encounters that took people completely by surprise. Scroll down to see some heart-warming photos, upvote the ones you loved the most, and consider what you can do to help your local wildlife conservation charities.

Urban Fox Doing A Full Sploot In My Sunny Scottish Garden
Claire Ferguson 1 year ago
He's making the most of the 2 days of summer we get in Scotland, it could be snowing tomorrow.
René Sauer 1 year ago
I once saw a video where a guy found a wild fox napping in the woods. he approached and gently stroked its head. the fox seemed to be enjoying it at first, but then after a few seconds it woke up and ran in a panic xD
The amount of biodiversity around us is incredible. Even if you live in a primarily urban environment, you’ll still encounter lots of different bugs and insects, different types of birds (not just pigeons!), probably rats, as well as stray dogs and cats.
If there are any parks or wooded areas in between your local skyscrapers, the odds are that you might also spot some squirrels, foxes, and raccoons. Of course, the specific animals you encounter are going to depend heavily on what part of the world you’re in!

The Neighborhood Fox And Her Kits Are Living Under My Front Deck Right Now
Tabitha 1 year ago (edited)
I have peacefully coexisted with numerous critters that have taken up residence around and under places I have lived. Possums living under decks, hives of bees in lattice works, birds nesting in overhangs, and an old fox with a bum back leg dragging behind him living under an old shed in the backyard (we live in the country, so there’s an open field behind our backyard where his only competition for food is the pair of bald eagles who have hatched numerous chicks in the woods behind us, so Old Foxy is eating really well in his golden years). As long as we all stick to our parts of the house and property, and neither of us do any damage, I have no issue with sharing. So far, neither do they.

That's cute. We have a new generation of squirrels and birds since pre pandemic. I got a mug at a zoo last summer that says bird nerd. yup, i've turned into the crazy old lady next door that feeds everything, except i don't think i'm that old yet. I have a spot in the concrete on my patio that about every 2 years alternately houses moles or bumble bees. I don't understand it, i don't try to kill them, the bees never try and sting me, have bumped into me a few times , like we need a yield sign, which scares me because i am allergic but mainly to wasps so i'm bad about carrying my epipen

Is that a domestic fox that somehow got out and is now running wild, or do they really come in that color mutation?
LakotaWolf (she/her) 1 year ago
The "silver fox" is just a melanistic form of the red fox. Definitely occurs naturally! Many fur farms would capture/breed the melanistic form since it looks exotic, but it's a natural color mutation. It's basically the same as how jaguars and leopards also have natural melanistic (black) color morphs in their populations.

If you live further away from the city center and you’re surrounded by more and more untouched nature, the animals you encounter are also going to be more varied. You might encounter entire groups of deer, different species of birds, insects, and amphibians.
If you’re living really remotely, you may even find some larger animals paying you a visit. Imagine drinking your first cup of morning coffee only to see a bear or a wolf walking past your front porch!

However, it isn’t all sunshine and rainbows. As people expand their urban environments, they massively affect the local wildlife population. Suddenly, animals are forced to flee their homes or look in other areas for food. Some fail to adapt altogether. Others are forced to change their entire behavior not only to survive but to thrive around people. (E.g., think of how wild raccoons live vs. suburban raccoons stealing food from trash cans.)

My husband is in pest control. We’re both huge animal lovers, and have rescued and adopted several pets over the years, who ended up living much happier, safer, and longer lives with us than they would have if we didn’t rescue them. He prefers to use humane traps for rodents, because he says some of the little wild mice are actually very cute and often really pretty little critters. He doesn’t like rats, but he still uses the humane traps for them as well, and has said he’s removed rats that actually had personality so he’s glad he went the humane route to remove them.

Friend's Mom Nearly Had A Heart Attack When She Looked Out The Back Window This Morning

I swear bears have started imitating people. I saw a picture earlier today where a bear sat down and stared out over a body of water (a lake or river, couldn't tell from the pic), right next to a chair set up so someone could sit and look out over the water. I think the bear saw some doing that, and decided to do the same. I think this bear saw the mom's friend leaning on the rail and looking out and decided to give it a try.
Earth.org, reporting on the data collected by the World Wildlife Fund, notes that the most endangered animal in the world is the Amur Leopard. Between 2014 and 2015, barely 92 individuals were left in the world.
Now, this number is even lower, standing at a mere 84. These leopards are at risk mainly due to poachers who value their coats and boats to be sold to Asian medicine practitioners. Natural fires, as well as those caused by people, also destroy their habitats. Meanwhile, the changing climate means that they have less prey to catch.

I'm thinking, what a powerful omen. Beautiful. Velvet still on the antlers.
Rhinos are also incredibly vulnerable. Poachers and traditional Chinese medicine practitioners value their horns very much, which means that these animals are constantly under threat of being hunted down. Unfortunately, their horns are very lucrative.
The black rhino, Javan rhino, and Sumatran rhino are three of five rhino species that are among the most endangered species on Earth. For instance, there are barely 60 Javan rhinos left. Meanwhile, the black rhino population stands at 5.5k.

Trash Pandas may be cute but they are destructive as hell. One of my Sister's had just sold her house in Kentucky when a couple of raccoons got into the crawlspace under her house and caused thousands of dollars in damage to duct work and insulation. They had to repair all of it before they could close on the house and finish the sell.

Their teeth are razor sharp, a raccoon cut off the strap of my bagpack in an attempt to drag it out of the tent at night. I say Cut, not Bit - because it looked as If a surgeon had done it with his scalpel. Scary. And they also eat birds etc.. But they look so cute!
Bornean and Sumatran orangutans are also in trouble. There were roughly 230k+ orangutans in the wild a hundred years ago. However, due to deforestation for palm oil, they’ve been losing their habitats. As it stands now, there are 104.7k Bornean orangutans and around 13.8k Sumatran orangutans living.

A startling, enchanting way to find that you're a safe house for wildlife!
There are no easy fixes. If you want to protect wildlife on a global scale, you’d have to change how people interact with nature so they can co-exist with animals.
That would probably include fundamentally changing the perspective on trade and economics: instead of limitless growth and profits, everyone would ideally aim for sustainable growth.

Meanwhile, we would all ideally change how we look at a life worth living, pursuing deep relationships instead of materialistic wants. That means consuming less, buying fewer products, changing our eating habits, and recycling more.
As a result, we’d need to destroy fewer natural habitats for farms, factories, mines, and homes. The more people vote with their wallets, the more big corporations will have to adapt and embrace a greener mindset.

One day, my husband came in from mowing the front yard and was in a bit of a panic. "I think I mowed a bunch of baby bunnies," he said, freaking out, "there was fur everywhere!" Of course, this description made ME panic a little, so we ran outside to look. The bunnies, fortunately, were all fine... and the hole was dug deep enough and the "fur everywhere" was actually just the nest covering that their mom must have laid down. We covered it up and made sure to check for bunnies before mowing in the future. The next year, there was a nest inside the fenced backyard... had to build a small temporary fence (with a small mama-sized entrance) so the dogs didn't eat them. Darn rabbits and their poor choice of nest location... 🙄

When You Spend Your Whole Life Rolling Your Eyes At Ignorant Foreigners Thinking You Have Kangaroos In Your Front Yard, And You Live In The Suburbs

I live in Australia, and I will never forget the night my dad called to warn me that there was a kangaroo on the driveway (which is fenced off from the garden). I went out to have a look, not realising the roo had just jumped clear over the fence. But someone else DID realise, and that was the dog. He chased that poor thing around and around the garden at full tilt, out of his mind with excitement. We eventually managed to grab him and let the kangaroo through the gate to freedom, but for months after that the dog kept hopefully looking out for Round Two. And might I add, we live in the middle of the suburbs. We also get the odd waddling echidna and once a bigass monitor lizard sitting on the garbage bins and glaring at me.

I live in Sydney and I don't see any kangaroos around, but once I stayed the night in a hotel in the Hunter Valley and on the grounds there was a group of kangaroos every 50 metres or so.

We were going back to Hawaii. the fuel ship was going back to Seattle and closer to his home. He must have gotten blown out to sea by a storm.

They can destroy your lawn/garden with burrowing, and can undermine foundations of buildings if their burrows get extensive enough. They also eat many commonly-grown garden veggies, so if one has a garden, the groundhog could eat all of the veggies/fruits/plants growing there. They're not always a nuisance, but they CAN be. I hope that OP's dad was planning on relocating the groundhog after capture.

I just never expected a bat in the house so wasn't even thinking in terms of something alive. (I know what a mouse looks like)

Same thing happened to my Chihuahua. He encountered a land crab right outside our front door when I unknowingly opened the door to go for a walk. They went to battle and before I could break it up, my little guy raced upstairs screaming the whole way and refused to come out from under the bed. After 30 mins of calming him down, he finally emerged with a claw attached to each of his front paws. It was quite the ordeal to get them off but eventually I did and found there were no serious injuries. I then raced down to look for a crab missing his front claws but he was long gone. I have since read that crabs can detach their front claws in battle and grow them back. I was relieved to know he was probably chilling somewhere waiting for his new claws to emerge. At least I hope that is what happened. Meanwhile, the chihuahua in question learned absolutely nothing from the experience; he still tries to go for crabs who dare to encroach on his property.

I have three: One time a bee thought I was a flower because I was wearing a puffy purple skirt. One time I saved a bee from drowning in the pool. I set it on my makeshift fort (Me and my friends made forts out of our towels and chairs) and gave it a flower. Came back 5min later and I saw it fly away. I swear the bees were SWARMING me the next day. One time some little kids were bothering a frog (poking it with sticks, etc.) I told them not to pester wildlife, picked up the frog, and let it hop onto a warm rock.

Genuine challenge: name a baby animal that isn't adorable in its own little way? I can't think of any other than maybe maggots, but even still they're kinda cute. What you got?

Nope. No baby flies. Can't do it.

The view from my kitchen window. This is what happens when your property borders on a state forest and you stop cutting your yard grass. Deer-664d6...eda9e7.jpg
