Woman calls 911 after nearly 100 raccoons surround her home

A woman living near Poulsbo, Washington, alerted authorities after she could not get inside her home because of a raccoon invasion last week. Kevin McCarty, a spokesperson for the Kitsap County Sheriff, said the woman called deputies Thursday because about 100 raccoons outside her home were "demanding food." The woman told deputies she started feeding raccoons around her house about 35 years ago without any problems. Six weeks ago, the population of raccoons "exploded." Now, the animals surround her home day and night hoping for a meal. "Somehow the word got out in raccoon land and they all showed up to her house expecting a meal," McCarty said. Kitsap deputies responded to the woman's home and were startled by what they saw. "They were shocked," McCarty said. "They had never seen that many raccoons in one place. Nobody ever remembers being surrounded by a swarm of raccoons. This was a first."
