Trash Bandits

Dumpster Kittens

Notorious for finding creative ways to break into trashcans, dumpsters, and food storage containers, raccoons are crafty little creatures. With their intelligence, hands that resemble that of humans, and opportunistic nature, you can often spot them traversing campus at night looking for dumpsters that were left unlocked. This trash panda decided that the garbage outside Kingswood was an opportune place to pop a squat during study hall. While having your garbage broken into repeatedly can be irritating, raccoons are important parts of any ecosystem, serving as key scavengers and opportunistic hunters in their communities.
