Wildlife displacement in Mexico

Overview

Residents in various Mexican regions have reported increasing encounters with wildlife entering homes and public spaces. In Morelos, sightings included a non-venomous false coral snake in Cuautla and a ‘Perico’ snake in the El Coyol housing unit.

Subsequent reports expanded to include incidents in Matehuala, where firefighters responded to a dead snake in Las Camelias Park and a live snake found on a sofa in the Pineño neighborhood. In Veracruz, a small crocodile was discovered under a bed in Las Choapas. Local reports suggest that rising water levels during the rainy season may be causing wildlife displacement into inhabited areas.
