The key hazard:animal=* adds additional detail to a hazard=animal_crossing, by indicating the type of animal that is known to appear (e.g., deer, moose, livestock, etc). This tag is an alternative to hazard:species=*, which is used to indicate an animal crossing for a specific species. The values of this tag use the same conventions used by animal=*.
If the animal crossing only occurs at a certain time of year, the tag seasonal=yes can be added.
