2.One thing the tour books don't tell you about London is that 2,000 0f its residents (屠民) are foxes.They ran away from the city about centuries ago after developers and pollution moved in.But now that the environment is cleaner,the foxes have come home."The number and variety of wild animals in urban c城市的) areas is increasing,"says
Corner Jones.A survey of the wildlife in New York's Central Park last year counted 14kinds of animals.A similar survey carried out in the 1890's counted only five kinds.
Several changes have brought wild animals to the cities.First,the air and water quality
in many cities have improved as a result of the 1970s pollution-control efforts.Meanwhile,rural areas have been built up,and many animals have gone to the area outside the centre of a city.In addition,urban wildlife refuges (避难处) have been created.The Greater London Council last year spent $ 750,000to buy land and build 10permanent (永久性的) wildlife refuges in the city.As a result,many birds are now living in the city.By 1970the birds had died out east of the Mississippi because the DDT had made their eggs too thin to support life.
That year,scientist Tom Cade of Cornell University began raising the birds for release in
cities,for cities afforded abundant food.
Cities can attract wild animals without turning them harmful.The key is to create
habitats where they are able to live happily.Such habitats can even be useful.In San
Francisco,the local government is testing different kinds of rainwater control basins to see not only which ones keep the cleanest water but which will attract the most birds.
