We are receiving reports of skunks and raccoon sightings. Some do not react to shouting or the usual clapping of hands, and other noises as they would do normally in the wilderness. They may be becoming bolder because of garbage not secured, domestic pet food left on decks, or even being fed directly by residents. These animals can be dangerous and disruptive. Please be vigilant about securing your trash or other food sources.
