This book explores how cities in the United States, once devoid of wildlife, have unexpectedly become habitats for a variety of wild animals, including large and charismatic species, more than at any time in the past 150 years. It examines the paradox of urban areas—typically seen as artificial and dominated by humans—hosting thriving wildlife while populations decline elsewhere. The author provides a deep historical perspective, analyzing a range of species and urban environments to understand why animals are flourishing in cities. He argues that this phenomenon is largely an unintended consequence of human decisions made for reasons unrelated to wildlife. The narrative encourages readers to rethink the concept of wildness and the dynamics of urban ecosystems, highlighting the importance of diverse, multispecies communities. It addresses the complex relationship between urban wildlife enthusiasts and those who view animals as invasive or safety concerns. Ultimately, the book advocates for a reimagining of interspecies coexistence in shared habitats and promotes policies grounded in justice, humanity, and sustainability.
