Raccoons
|
The raccoon is a stocky mammal about 2 to 3 feet long
and weighs 10 to 30 pounds. It is distinctively marked
with a black "mask" over the eyes and is heavily
furred with alternating light and dark rings around its
tail. Raccoons are omnivorous, eating both plants and
animals. Raccoons will routinely dig up sod looking for
grubs and other insects or raid garbage cans and gardens.

Skunks
The striped skunk is about the size of an adult house
cat and its fur is mostly black with white on
top of the head and neck. In most animals the white extends
down the back, usually separating into two white stripes.
Skunks are omnivorous with a preference for eggs. Like
raccoons, they may also damage lawns by rolling back
sections of sod in search of insects.
