Define the term ‘pest’

It occurred to me while reading about a proposed bylaw against feeding animals that the term “pest” should be defined.

What is a pest? From whose perspective is the term derived?

I’ve lived in Sidney now for 13 years and can honestly say I love the fact that we have wild animals living amongst us.

It’s part of the charm of living here.

Maybe the next time a raccoon knocks over your garbage or a seagull poos on your lawn furniture you should consider where your garbage and poo end up.
