The "old" parts of Wheaton are more how you say. But Wheaton has grown a lot in the last few decades just like many other farther out suburbs.

I'm sure that's being broadcast around the country. Great way to make the city look like an outpost in the arctic!

Default Urban Coyotes

Coyotes: Urban dwellers anxious about urban coyotes - chicagotribune.com

I was watching some YouTube videos of coyotes chilling at Quizno's or wandering down a city street. These videos crack me up for some reason. It's like what the hell is this coyote doing here? How did it possibly make it there? LOL. Has anyone in the city seen coyotes lately?

NW burbs have coyotes and a coyote could get into town unnoticed via the viaducts for the rail lines and what not.
