For over 35 years, a woman had been feeding a small group of raccoons, but an influx of new raccoons led to aggressive behavior—prompting a 911 call.
The Kitsap County Sheriff's Office indicated that the woman's initial kindness led to an overwhelming horde of raccoons that resulted in her feeling unsafe in her own home.
Experts advised the woman to cease feeding the raccoons, and it seems they have begun dispersing, highlighting the consequences of human interaction with wildlife.
With over 100 raccoons congregating, it became apparent that feeding wildlife can create unintended disturbances, leading to increased aggression among once-docile animals.
