Since everyone is stuck at home and not walking around city's Now wild animals are able to wander through deserted cities.

It is cute!  Maybe this lockdown will give the Wild Animals space and the environment a little room to breathe.

That is so amazing!  I didn't know a civet cat walked like that.  I've only seen stills.

I've been seeing animals that depended on humans for food are also getting into places they shouldn't be, like one of the Nara Deer got into a museum or a hospital or something?

There was a story like this about goats roaming through Llandudno in Wales. I'll find the article.

As for the Nara deer, providing you mean the ones actually in Nara, they get into places anyway as a matter of course. They're perfectly capable of getting into shops, museums, temples or wherever if someone isn't paying attention. They're pretty smart and very assertive.

Wow, how cute.  I was reading that pollution is WAAAAAAY down too- which is kinda a nice upside.

Civet cats reportedly transmitted Sars to people in 2003 and now it's so cute to see civet cats wander where people are on lockdown thanks to Sars-2 

Don't get me wrong, I love civets and genets. And it's not their fault. It's just ironic (on purpose?) they chose to highlight the animal that played a role in the last pandemic in this article... might as well show some bats fluttering about.
