  • Normally, raccoons are nocturnal, skittish and shy animals. But not the ones we spotted in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, and animal control officials say people have only themselves to blame. Kiet Do reports. (9/23/20)

      @@maryh9812 I don't recall the exact context of my comment, Mary, but it was something like, wow, scary to have to face down all those raccoons on a mellow stroll through Golden Gate Park, a place of lots of good memories from my childhood. And hissing raccoons, no thanks. And I say that as an all-season, all-terrain cyclist--my little thumbnail is me in '75 on a bike I got for my birthday in '67 when we lived on Twin Peaks--and these days I live and ride in Central Pennsylvania and I encounter my share of wild creatures doing their thing on two-lane roads through the woods at night and it is not uncommon to encounter a skittish deer or darting raccoon and that's fine, it is their space. Just that I want nothing to do with them and it just seems that if you can't walk through a city park without facing huge numbers of raccoons, something's gotta give. And my deal would probably be not to return to that walkway when they're greeting the tourists.

    i imagine for local sanfranciscans seeing homeless explode , they may in their minds metaphorically analogize this to the homeless problem a little bit. i'm not saying homeless people are racoons. i'm saying people see creatures (we are all gods creatures!) and they don't know how to react. to be threatened? to feed? to ignore?
    it's not always so simple.
    and just imagine how the pet dogs feel? oh my lord. hahaha.

    I'm going to tell you this now I feed some raccoons but these raccoons only come out at night they don't come out in the day they are not aggressive you know why cuz I don't treat them as pets the only reason why I give food to them in a silver bowl away from the house towards a far distance towards my fence is to keep them in an area towards and their existence the forest because they were coming close now they are still afraid of me and I like that they don't come to people and I like that it's only a mother raccoon with sex baby cubs and that's it but they do not want to get near me and I don't want to get near them and that is good we do have to live with these animals cuz we humans are encroaching in their habitat we take and take and we don't realize this already civilizations of other animal species living in that territory we think everything belongs to us and we have a right to everything it's b******* this is going to be a problem for people who do not understand about animals and don't take time to understand them I personally do not want to make these animals pets they are sentient beings and we share this Earth with them. I keep my distance I do not want to be friendly but I do want to respect them and the reason why I give them food you because I'm tired of them being killed on the roads I see him trying to get food and they have to wonder. and there's no reason for them to die because of man's greed that is only reason why I give food away from my house far by my fence towards their woods they don't see me I don't see them I don't touch them they don't touch me but they know they can have a little bit of a meal but I am not encroaching to want to be near them I don't want them to be unafraid of people I want them to survive

      This makes me smile. Years ago I lived in a cabin in the wilderness and at night a cotimundi (miner's cat) from the racoon family would manage to break in and totally trash my kitchen looking for food till I met it one nite up in the rafters drinking a bottle of Hershey's syrup like a toddler downing a bottle. After that I just left a cookie on the counter at bedtime and he would take it and leave.
