As development continues in Alliston, raccoons have adapted to live near to humans. Raccoons build burrows in attics, under decks, and in garages. They search for food sources in gardens and trash cans. Raccoons are opportunistic and curious animals and have learned to coexist with people. For these reasons, close encounters between raccoons and humans are extremely common in suburban areas.
Raccoons are medium-sized mammals that can grow up to 70 centimeters and can weigh up to 26 kilograms. Their most distinctive features are their highly dexterous front paws, facial mask, and ringed tail. The raccoon is noted for its intelligence, as studies show they can remember a solution to a task for three years. They are usually nocturnal and omnivorous, meaning they will eat both plants and other animals, including fruits, berries, fish, frogs, insects, turtles, mice, rabbits, and bird eggs.
