Point Defiance Park, Tacoma, Washington. The local raccoons have become accustomed to being fed. This is really bad, because the raccoons can be aggressive, can get hit by cars or can be hurt by people who don't like raccoons. The best ideas is to NOT FEED THE WILDLIFE. Every year there are stories around here about people feeding wild critters. One lady near here was feeding bears like they were pets -- just what you need, a bunch of hungry bears at your house every day. Sheesh. Here's a link that will tell you more about raccoons: http://www.projectwildlife.org/living-raccoons.htm
