Ever wonder which animals inhabit your city? If you lived in Nara, Japan, you might see Sika deer who have been living there for at least 1,000 years, who have also been found wandering supermarket aisles! Other urban denizens include brown-throated sloths in Panama City, dragonflies in Lisbon, turkey vultures in Havana and Jacques monkeys in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Readers can travel from country to country, learning about all of these animals’ habits, how to find them and how to help preserve the little corners of the cities they call home.
