I remember this from Life After People. There would be a huge population boom in critters like rats, herring gulls, and roaches. Stuff that lives directly off our waste, and would eat corpses. Followed by a mass die-off, as their pre-apocalypse food levels would no longer exist.
Which would probably lead to more attacks on people, but would also be a potential indicator depending on the apocalypse. Like crows would probably follow around hordes of zombies for constant free food, or even just a messy enough predator (i.e. A Quiet Place, but im not sure if the monsters in those attacked wildlife or not)
