Spouse and I watched the last episode of Planet Earth II last night, "Cities," and there was a bit in it about this one city in India where there are LEOPARDS sneaking into the city at night and nomming piglets. frickin LEOPARDS. for some reason I find that fascinating and weirdly hopeful. XD

also the city in Ethiopia that has made a pact with hyenas. <3 urban wildlife

@green I think that's what starts lycanthropy stories. It's always the animals that are interested enough in human leavings to come into villages and cities. And in pre-industrial darkness, how do you know that fox or hyena you just spotted outside your neighbor's house isn't that neighbor?
