Woman calls 911 because of 50-100 racoons on her property. - Catherine - 10-10-2024
A woman called 911 when between 50-100 racoons showed up on her property.
It turns out she had been feeding a small number of racoons. Everything was fine until a crowd of racoons showed up.

They tell you not to feed wildlife. It can have consequences. Each racoon that she was feeding must have told a few friends, who in turn told a few friends. Once the word got out about a good food source all kinds of racoons would show up. I don't know how she is going to get rid of them all.
Maybe it would be easier to move.
