Squirrels, Rabbits, tons of birds, once in a blue moon a raccoon, a groundhog living under my shed, opossum, and once maybe a year there would be a fox or something.- I don't live on the wooded side of Stoughton that's why.

I know, I always remind myself not to run when I see these dogs on the loose because they just walk past me, they look creepy because they're all big and muscular.

Lol, I wouldn't be surprised if I saw a Crocodile, Snake or Bear come from out of the bushes lol. I wonder if there's Bears on Long Island though?

I don't think we have bears even on the east end of the island. But I know you have to go pretty far out on the island to see deer, and they're only in the big parks anyway. The only wildlife we have here that I never saw in Queens, were rabbits. That's really it.

I think it doesn't have bears because its an island, I've also heard stories of Cows running loose in Queens and even a Lion .

I have seen a peacock in a Queens cemetery. Somebody abandoned an iguana in the parking lot of a PETCO store on LI. You have to remember that sometimes people buy exotic animals, find it to difficult to keep them, and then just abandon them. It's very sad, but true.

I live in an apartment so I don't have a yard but I saw a bunny rabbit a couple weeks ago as I was leaving the complex. He was going fast too trying to cross the road. I've seen foxes in my neighborhood too.

Back in Georgia on Christmas day I remember watching an armadillo hunting for food. I kept my distance and just watched it was pretty neat.
