In Britain we send for the RSPCA. If you're really lucky, you get Rolf Harris as well!

I heard in Canada it's considered good luck if there's a bear in your garden and you see it; if you don't see it, that's considered bad luck!

Actually, we have a tv series (just finished) with Robson Jerome as a cop given the extra job of doing the animal protection bit. It's quite entertaining, and RJ has been roped in to protect badgers in Staffordshire (for the publicity, I presume).
