In 100,000 years, crow people will furiously debate whether humans were companions or pets.

I see a lot more crows on the West Coast than the East Coast. Many seem to commute into Vancouver and then back to Burnaby, stopping by the Costco at Production Way for bits of hotdog before checking Burnaby Lake for birdseed.

Yep, way more crows (and magpies) in my PNW city than I ever saw around in New England years back. But as for wildlife in general, I also have raccoons and skunks coming to my back porch to feed (which I welcome) and have seen deer (incl. a huge-racked buck, foraging at the plantings in a residential yard), bald eagles, and even a moose within city limits, maybe a mile or so from downtown.
