Raccoon Coat
Some people are nuts.
This woman duct-taped a bunch of food to her body in order to attract raccoons. No, I am not making this up.
Oh, and did I mention that raccoon carry rabies? Yep. There's a lot of that with raccoons. .
Mount Royal in Montreal. Raccoons are not native to either Montreal or Los Angeles -- both came with man and his garbage dumps. Raccoon populations have spread north and west since 1900 and the numbers are now larger than they ever were before.

It's nice to know that for however many medical advances the human race makes towards longer lives there is some idiot on the other end of the spectrum fighting for baseline of natural selection in all of it's epic stupidity.
What amazes me is that the same people that think raccoons are cute and tape food to themselves to attract them are also the ones screaming loudest about animals getting into their garbage.

Is that LA in the background? All I can say is looks like evolution at work.
