Now that people are staying indoors to try to stop the COVID-19 pandemic, the animals have lost their fear of descending the mountains and onto the streets of cities.
Although originally only sheep, horses, deer or ducks were seen, now wild species such as bears, cougars and elk join the walks and take over the avenues, park and gardens.
