Urban & farmland animals
70 species whose habitat facts match urban & farmland — plus a detailed biome hub with threats and classroom links.
Quick answer
Urban and farmland habitats are landscapes people have heavily modified. Adaptable species — foxes, pigeons, raccoons, many insects — exploit gardens, parks, and crop edges. Cities can still support wildlife when green corridors, water, and nesting sites remain.
