I’ve only been abroad one time, and there were little gecko/lizard things everywhere, climbing up walls and scurrying across roads, and nobody cared. I was constantly fascinated but to the locals they’re just kinda there.
Bonus question to anyone who visited the UK - was there anything that fascinated you but I’d be taking for granted?
Pic unrelated.
This sounds like a pretty Calgarian response. While I know that there are black variants of eastern grey squirrels in pockets all over North America, ours were specifically introduced as such. They’ve subsequently pushed out local squirrel and chipmunk populations. I don’t think you can even find a squirrel in Calgary that isn’t black.
