The traps attract the ~ rac- coons, snare them and society officials release them in their native habitat--away from Tor- onto residential areas.

One man reported that a coon, attempting to remove the top of a garbage can, slammed the can against the side of a car and caused $200 damage, In another case, a raccoon came down a chimney into a house while the family was on vacation and turned on a tap. The drain was plugged and the water flooded the lower floors and recreation room, On one. occasion -a raccoon was seen hoisting another on its shoulders to reach the top of a garbage can, Chances are they were planning a midnight picnic and the kind thing would be to leave them to it.
