It meets the climate conditions.
There is forest *in* the city limits and farm fields and ... cows. And I think I'd be safe to say I could walk a hundred miles and be under trees the whole way.

The Wolf Park, twenty minutes north of Lafayette, Indiana, is operated by the non-profit North American Wildlife Park Foundation, dedicated to public education about wolves. Considered one of the most extensive wolf research facilities in the world, the park was founded in 1972, by German native Dr. Erich Klinghammer, a zoo consultant and expert on dog and wolf behavior."
