If you put some animals (both wild and domestic) on an island and left them there to roam free and we come back after a few years who would survive. They are much more independent and still behave similarly to wild cats they are still pets and rely on humans to survive. Would suprisngly rodents and small animals.

Here’s a quote about bird lungs from Britannica: “Himalayan geese have been observed not only to fly over human climbers struggling to reach the top of Mount Everest, but to honk as they do so.” For instance, you can own a lion in Alabama, but not in California.

The sizes of canines ranges all the way from smaller than cats to basically as big as a lion, a big part of that range being human-made.

But it wasn’t founded to serve as a refuge for human refugees, but animal ones, specifically elephants. The park was created as much to protect the local communities from marauding elephants with a hatred of dangerous humans and a lack of interest in the differences between nations as it was to protect the elephants.
