Maybe if Google asks nicely to make Chrome their default browser...

Honestly would be nice if they could make it a litte nature reserve, I mean they want bats, butterflies, bees , but not foxes? They are very arguably adorable neighbors

They are very arguably adorable neighbors

They look super cute, definitely. And if you don't have to sleep near there, they're probably great.

But foxes tend to be horrible neighbors at night. They scream like someone is murdering babies.

Shouldn't be a problem for an office building.

Unless Google intends to Musk it up and "strongly encourage" employees sleep at the office.

I'm sure those sociopaths at Google will like that.

It says that they found fox droppings, but, then, some years back I remember when they hired a company to have a herd of goats graze their lawn down at the Googleplex, and that has to be worse on that front.

Instead of using noisy mowers that run on gasoline and pollute the air, we've rented some goats from California Grazing to do the job for us (we're not "kidding"). A herder brings about 200 goats and they spend roughly a week with us at Google, eating the grass and fertilizing at the same time. The goats are herded with the help of Jen, a border collie. It costs us about the same as mowing, and goats are a lot cuter to watch than lawn mowers.

There were foxes living in the lower levels of the Shard before it fully opened up. Wouldn’t be surprised if they’re still there on unlet floors.
