Seriously?
Man you should take a trip out side the "Pale"
Having said that I have seen foxes coming out of Cineworld on Parnell Street, a Badger in Blanch' and complete set of bats in Swords etc.
Or there is a Crane family not to far from where I live but they are always out when I don't have my Canon SLR
