00:00
in san francisco a group of raccoons have just taken over a park like a little game it's raccoon
00:10
park now if you come into that park they will gather and they will just kind of try and force
00:15
you out of there that's not cool uh here's a story from kpix tv take a listen sounds like
00:21
the plot of a campy horror movie a pack of aggressive raccoons taking over a neighborhood
00:27
but it's really happening in san francisco's golden gate park and these guys are not shy
00:34
kpi x5's kit doe on what's making these animals so fearless kit so normally raccoons are nocturnal
00:42
very skittish not the ones that we've heard about in san francisco and we only have ourselves to blame
00:48
wendy wald says they've been here for years is it a little concerning that they're getting this
00:53
close to you and your dogs um a little bit but they've no fear they just ignore each other
01:04
a couple of blocks away sylvia ramirez says raccoons living in the redwood trees in her backyard
01:09
actually come down during the day now and go under her deck something they've never done before
01:14
sylvia was also recently at lake merced a few miles away when one just strolled right up to her on the
01:20
trail well we have to coexist in the world with wildlife um we're the ones that are in their
01:25
territory and this goes into my next question kid are any plans to sort of try to mitigate this
01:34
problem by say gathering some of the raccoons up rehabilitating them and then putting them in another
01:38
rehabilitating them taking them into raccoon rehab they're raccoons not homeless drug addicts come
01:45
on these are wild animals this is because the raccoons are on hippie land yeah that's true
01:51
just feed them man it's fine yeah they're coming out during the day which is really really weird yeah
01:55
yeah they're like nocturnal so is that like a thing like a raccoon rehab i don't know maybe on the west
02:00
coast it is we take the raccoons in and we teach them how to read and we teach them exactly what
02:08
they need to do to come to the high school diploma yeah we get them back in high school and you know
02:14
we put them on right path we can teach them skills like welding uh we can teach them all kinds of
02:19
things that are applicable that way they can get a job these are some bad raccoons have been attacking
02:24
people everybody's got past and that's the thing some people just need a second chance man and
02:30
raccoons are no different you know they come in and we taught one to make little dresses wow is that
02:36
raccoon smoking weed yeah he got into my weed okay i gotta take care of that actually that's not cool he's
02:43
not fully rehabilitated yet he's still got problems some of these raccoons are addicts okay and that's
02:51
that's a crazy thing some of them are addicted to bagels and some of them are addicted to weed like
02:55
him he's really smoking that thing wow that's crazy we got really that's the fattest blunt i've
03:02
ever seen how long how long does it normally take for a raccoon to go through rehab it varies you
03:08
know it's a case-by-case basis okay and so like some raccoons it could be like one year some raccoons
03:13
that guy the one smoking weed we've had him for eight years we've been trying to rehabilitate
03:18
not working out then he just gets better at stealing my weed he's a lifer huh yeah they're
03:24
sponsors that when they are on the outside well we let one of the raccoons like the cleaned up
03:28
raccoons go and sponsor the other ones but that doesn't sometimes they just have sex you know
03:33
you gotta keep an eye on that because then it just makes more raccoons you need to rehabilitate
03:38
um chris oh hey chris how are you how you doing good man what's your story
03:43
okay okay so i i had a raccoon in my kitchen eating out of my dog bag right okay and then
03:51
and then i called the cops and they're like we can't do nothing on a sunday night
03:55
i'm like what do i do sleep in a raccoon in my house so i bait him outside the house with a
04:07
sandwich he comes back in and eats the sandwich on my drop ceiling in the basement i'm like okay
04:23
drop ceiling in the basement i'm like oh my god you came back in the house yeah so he
04:28
got him outside with the sandwich he grabs a plate sits down at the table does he have like a doggy
04:36
door or something oh my god that is hilarious that's like i had more laughs in that one story
04:42
than i've heard in a lot of stories sunday night man we don't do anything man yeah this is the police
04:46
animal control wasn't on duty or something the police can't help you yeah maybe they're they don't
04:51
they're not trained they don't deal with that that's possibly it yeah i don't know you're on
04:55
your own yeah it's sunday it's the sabbath there's no police we don't have police today no police today
05:01
stupid like that one time that i had to fight off a raccoon and the only weapon i could find was my
05:05
pool noodle that's not a great one and i fought off what i believe now to be a rabid raccoon like i was
05:11
like dueling with him pushing him back towards the fence because he was digging up our pool cover like
05:17
he was trying to rip it to get to the water yeah and i'm like you little bastard so i went running
05:22
out and i couldn't see anything and i grabbed a big pool noodle it was very floppy yeah but he was
05:28
like it literally he was a couple inches away from me and he just would slowly like it wasn't
05:34
terrifying him yeah he stood his ground it was a pool i think it was because it was a pool noodle
05:39
yeah but it's a crazy guy who's six foot five with some sort of floppy weapon if he ran out with a
05:44
pot and a pan and started clanking them together i bet you he would have ran off i bet he ran to
05:47
his other raccoon buddies and was like humans have the dumbest weapons yeah some guy just started
05:52
swinging one of those little foam noodles like he was like that's nothing i got claws yeah yeah amber
05:57
was taping the whole thing she got video of she's inside like she wouldn't come outside but she's like
06:02
you're insane leave the raccoon alone i'm like no he's gonna ruin our friggin pool cover it sounds like
06:09
a video that would go straight to like ridiculousness but like you were saying dude it was probably
06:13
rabid like because they won't like if it stands its ground like that it's out of its mind oh yeah
06:17
he was he was definitely rabid that that's the little effort right there oh so he was scratching
06:23
the pool cover trying to get through it and that's why i had to like go out yeah yeah swing your big
06:30
noodle around yeah but he was uh he was a little bugger yeah that's funny
