Answer 1

EVERYONE WITH A OPEN MIND HAS NOTICED THAT GLOBAL WARMING IS CAUSING ATTITUDES TO CHANGE IN PEOPLE AND ANIMALS AND POSSIBLY LIFE UNDER THE SEA. DISASTERS EXPANDED OUT OF PROPORTION. WE NEED TO GET TOGETHER AND DELETE IT INSTEAD OF TALKING. http://www.socyberty.com/Activism/First-... OR PARISH.  HAVE A NICE DAY.

Answer 2

My friend hit a horse that got out. That was kinda weird, not so much wild life tho. OH! But there IS this CRAZY little bunny that has a death wish in my neighborhoood! Almost every night now, as I pull in, the thing runs out in front of my car to the other side, then just looks at me. Geeze. And also lately birds have been EVERYWHERE when I'm driving. Maybe cause Its summer again, but I hit one, several others almost flew into my open windows, and I've skidded to sever stopps when larger ones refused to move. Had to drive around them. Those birds are really frekin me out.

Answer 3

Most animals are going away, and it isnt because of the seasons and time. I have also seen the skys get yellowish and brownish wich isn't good.

Answer 4

there's been a crazy amount of small birds flying around where i live... like a black cloud of them.  i cant even understand why

Answer 5

no, nothing different.  everything is the same.  except, darn it, the spring snow which never happens and the mild temperatures which must be reflective of global warming.... NOT

my question to you would be have you been around a few thousand years or so to realize all these changes you notice are just normal trends?

Answer 6

yup, I live on Long Island, and the shoreline has gotten smaller and smaller the past 5 yrs. And birds have bene coming less as well as rabbits and other rodents.

Answer 7

Lake mead has lost like 70 feet...

globle warming....

can't stop it really theres nothing u can do.

the world is going to end eventually.

not to be miss gloomy or anything, im just telling the truth!

Answer 8

No. I live in the country 60 miles east of Dallas texas and have not seen a change in any of the wildlife except one. The coyotes are getting fatter and more numerous. Seems to be plenty of game to feed on.

Answer 9

I see thousands of illegal immigrants fornicating in my local public parks, hanging out on the dirty boulevard, and dumping unwanted items on the streets of my ecosystem.  

I live next to the Battersea Power Station, on Cringle Street, UK.

Answer 10

Yes there have been lots of stray cats and one very large couger. Their are also wierd plants no one can identify.....Creepy! I live in Milwaukee WI

Answer 11

Yeah, thanks to Bob Kraft, he beautiful cranberry bogs I love so much on my street are surrounded by buildings and he bought the ogs so he could dump trash there. Sad, I know. He practically poisoned the fish over the winter by dumping snow filled with rock salt and trash in the bogs. Before I used to see endangered species of animals and other beautiful things, like cranes that would walk around. But now the new Bass Pro Shop in Massachusetts has placed fake animals and they may fill the pond with bass for fishermen. That will ruin everything- and they want to make a walking trail which will invite people to my home (the bogs).

Answer 12

mmm, the bee population is going way down...i think my school is to blame cause it's not a normal day if one of my teachers doesn't kill a bee haha

but thats kinda nationwide right now...so i guess i haven't seen much...

Answer 13

I live in the same general area in NJ as I did growing up and I have noticed the population of piebald white-tailed deer is significantly higher than before.  The first one I ever saw was in the 80's and now I see them all the time.  My theory is since deer's major 'predator' is the automobile, the ones with large white blotches (aka piebald) can be seen more easily and are then avoided - allowing them to breed more. The traditional brown ones are harder to see and therefore get hit by the cars.

So instead of evolution favoring the ones that blend in - it now favors those that can be seen at night!

I wonder what else will change over the next decade or 2?

Answer 14

I watched thousands of acres of farmland turned into housing and commercial developments all over the country.
