Not really me. A friend of mine is moving out of state. His neighbor has been a total dick the entire time he’s lived there. Constantly commenting on how my friend’s yard isn’t as good as his. Mean to my friend’s wife and kids for no reason. Just an asshole of a person.
What are some ideas for fun pranks my friend can leave behind?
Oh, we have those, too. And bears.
Every time a bear decides to cross the border (usually in bavaria) it gets declared a ‘Problembär’ and is shot :shrug:, but we do have wolves again, which is cool, although the conservative (lol) forces are trying to get rid of those too already
Bear hunting is a fairly normal thing up here and helps keep the population down. I’ve eaten bear hunted by an acquaintance. It’s not an issue near me yet, but a lot of the more depopulated areas are having bigger issues with bears for the remaining (often elderly) residents.
We don’t have wolves in my area that I know of. We do have two types of deer, tanuki, something kinda like mink, fox, boar, and some other rodents. We might have monkeys in the more mountainous areas, but I’ve not seen any up here so far.
I guess Japans geography allows for a lot more undeveloped regions where wild animal can thrive and live without bothering anyone. Here we mostly have flat land and due to the heavy settling for almost 2000 years there’s little untouched nature left.
The population has been falling in recent decades with down to 100 million predicted by 2050. Since almost all the jobs are in the big cities, young people go for uni or trade school and almost never move back. Whole areas are just being reclaimed by nature
