Kali9/Getty Images (MIAMI BEACH, Fla.) -- Miami Beach, long the epicenter of fun in the sun for college students' spring break respite, is dealing with an increase in violence including two deadly shootings on the iconic Ocean Drive in the past week.

Raccoons may be Toronto's unofficial mascot , but the furry creatures that plunder our green bins are far from the only wild animals that live among us.
