Our raccoons are in the news again. They are turning up in people's backyards drunk!
This time of year, fruit is falling from the trees and lying on the ground in the hot sun and fermenting.
Raccoons get into the fermented fruit and they just can't stop eating it.

Raccoons are funny at the best of times, but seeing them stumbling along totally drunk is just one more funny episode.
Mostly they will just sleep it off and be fine, perhaps with a hangover. Sometimes the raccoons might seem like a problem,
But I think life would be less funny if we didn't have them.
