Raccoons
Some people might wonder why raccoons live in towns. But the raccoons were there first. Cities grow, houses move into woods and fields where once wild animals lived. As a result, some kinds of animals move out. Raccoons usually stay on. They can live near people. People don’t always like having raccoons as neighbors, however. The animals can carry a dangerous illness.
Raccoons sleep most of the day. They sleep on tree branches. At night, they come out to find food. Dark fur around their eyes gives raccoons the nickname of “masked bandits”. Garbage is now a large part of the city raccoon’s diet. People often try hard to make their garbage cans raccoon –proof, but they usually don’t succeed, because raccoons are clever animals.
In the woods, they usually live in trees, high above the ground. In towns, however, trees are rare. As a result, raccoons sometimes make their nests in chimneys (дымоходы).
When people discover a raccoon in their house, they usually want to get rid of (избавиться от) it. There are people who are good at catching raccoons. It’s a good idea to call on one of these experts for help. City or country officials can help, too, by giving you the names of people who are trained to help homeless, lost, or sick animals. After preparing the cubs (baby raccoons) for life in the wild, these people release them.
