We tend to think of cities as a realm apart, somehow separate from nature, but nothing could be further from the truth. In Feral Cities , Tristan Donovan digs below the urban gloss to uncover the wild creatures that we share our streets and homes with, and profiles the brave and fascinating people who try to manage them.
