PLEASE REMEMBER!!
DO NOT FEED THE RACCOONS -- You must keep all food items in locked coolers or containers. If you are tent camping, do NOT keep food in your tent, the raccoons will tear your tent open to get to the food. Don't feel that you must feed them because they are hungry; they are fully able to forage for the proper type of food. In feeding them, you are essentially teaching them to beg from humans, which creates problems for humans AND the animals.
