Observation:  Today’s ride was thru a pretty rough neighborhood with 100s and 100s of abandoned or burned out homes.  With that kind of abandonment though Mother Nature has decided to move her family back in and I saw a ton of different critters, which got me thinking about all the wild animals I have seen since starting the ELM project.  Not sure this is list is complete, but it represents all the ones I can remember:  Bats, Cats, Chipmunks, Coyotes, Deer, Dogs, Ducks, Eagles, Frogs, Geese, Groundhogs, Hawks, Owls, Pheasants, Pigeons, Possum, Rabbits, Raccoons, Rats, Skunks, Swans, Squirrels, Turkeys, Turtles and Vultures.

Distance:  32.37 miles

D-Fact: The Detroit Zoo was the first zoo in America to feature cageless, open-exhibits that allowed the animals more freedom to roam.
