An unexpected side effect of the COVID-19 lockdown in Canada!
So much has changed over the last year but one unexpected result of the COVID-19 lockdown in Toronto, Canada, has seen racoons invading the city, with attacks up 64%.
Experts have levelled the blame squarely on residents and not the little furry creatures, The Guardian reported.
It’s believed the increased exposure to raccoons, who are growing more brazen with less people on the streets, has led to more people wanting to pet or feed them, not a good idea!
Deers, foxes and coyotes have also been seen more frequently as they move closer to the urban centres.
But no matter how cute a wild animal looks, it’s still wild, so steer clear!
