I am from western Pennsylvania and I remember when I was a child my house was built next to a Forest that me my brother, and my friends all played in. Then one day a real estate company bought the land and with-in two years the forest I grew up playing in was turned into more houses and a storage unit. We used to be able to watch dear, squirrels, foxes and rabbits from our porch on a consistent basis. Now we'll be lucky we see one or two of them in a month.
