Front Yard/Back Yard

I was in a house. I was looking out the garden level window at the back of the house. It was a semi-arid, wooded area (somewhat like here, but a little more open and drier). I saw a coyote or wolf come bounding out of the woods into the open area, in hot pursuit of a rabbit. Another predator also ran across the yard.

Then I went to the front of the house and looked out. It was a typical suburban street: sidewalk, treelawn, neighborhood dogs playing together, kids, adults and cars moving around. I commented to somebody there that I thought it was so interesting that the back yard was wild and the front yard was tame.
