8 Dangerous Animals Found in Urban Areas!

7. Seagulls in Spain
Loud, annoying, always hungry rats of the sky – of course, we’re talking about seagulls. They always gather around food, and getting (or rather stealing) scraps from people in the city is ten times easier than actually hunting for small fish in the ocean. Naturally, these feathered thieves prefer sticking to the concrete jungle. And just wait until you see the flocks of birds scavenging the garbage mountains full of delicious rotten fruits, week-old leftovers, and everything that comes with it. There’s also a positive side to this: some species like the stork have bounced back from the brink of extinction thanks to our trash piles.

8. Cockatoos in Sydney
Continuing our trend of “rogue” animals, let’s talk about parrots, specifically the Australian cockatoos. You’ve seen them on YouTube doing funny noises, imitating people’s voices, and headbanging to Cannibal Corpse, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that these aviary bandits are incredibly intelligent creatures. So much so that opening trash bins and windows are not a big deal for them. Some researchers claim that their IQ is equal to that of a 4-year-old child, and we all know how chaotic kids can be. You see, the birds aren’t just looking for food, they intentionally rip and tear through anything their beak can reach because they are the a-holes of the animal kingdom. But they’re too cute for us to be mad at their shenanigans.
