Many people see raccoons as cute creatures that are fun to look at and play with. They seem intelligent, harmless and oblivious to the world around them. However, those who live near areas like Toronto teeming with raccoons can tell you another side of these creatures. These people not only see raccoons on a daily basis but also have their daily routines affected by the behaviour of raccoons in their backyards, garages and even in their houses.
Raccoons search for food, warm shelter and water. They just happen to do a lot of damage in their search for these things.
