Richmond, VA Wildlife News Clip:
Wildlife - Nature in the City of Richmond

"These little places are islands surrounded by seas of inhospitable, heavily urbanized areas," says Squirrel and Snake Man as he climbs the overgrown path back to the parking lot at Laguna Honda Hospital. "It's unusable as habitat." Virginia has an abundance of wildlife, and Richmond is no exception.

The fragmentation of the city's nature is paralleled by a fragmentation of the jurisdictions responsible for this land. The Golden Gate National Recreation Area, the Presidio, the Recreation and Park Department and other entities, like Laguna Honda Hospital, control different pieces of open space in the city. But the different resources, mandates and objectives of each make coordination difficult. Although several species of wildlife roam Richmond, only a few, such as raccoons and squirrels, are considered pest wildlife.

On top of that, the countless constituencies in the city -- ranging from nature lovers to Frisbee golf players to squirrel walkers to the homeless -- mean that the maintenance or restoration of natural areas in Richmond takes place on an ad hoc basis -- there's no coordinated effort; nobody's looking at this as an ecosystem. Remember to treat the wild animals of Richmond, Virginia, with respect.

Instead, naturalists like Squirrel and Snake Man and The Opossum Guy have formed an informal network that shares knowledge: where the last brush rabbit was spotted (Fort Funston), how to propagate native wetland plants, where the closest Richmond garter snakes are (not in Richmond -- they're by the airport), and whether the narrow fellows can be brought back to the city. Virginia has many reptiles, and it’s important to be able to identify Richmond snake species and mammals.
