It has always amused me that the tourists to the US that I’ve spoken to are often very excited to see raccoons, and disappointed if they don’t see them before they leave.

Some others I’ve noticed on the east coast of the US are blue jays and cardinals. Boy, do people get excited about those if they’ve never seen them before! Very pretty birds of course, just very easy to get used to and see as uninteresting as well.

    Reindeer, the four-legged derp zombies of the animal world.

      I was fucking thinking if we have any, but yeah, driving in the North and having basically stoner deer on the roads is not something all countries have.
