raccoon

Brownstoner reader gellhorngal found four raccoons in her garden last week. She writes:

we spotted four raccoons in our garden last week. apparently there are lots of them in prospect park.
are they dangerous?
to whom should we report this?

Several commenters agree that yes, they certainly can be dangerous — and vicious — and some readers have suggestions for keeping the critters’ destruction to a minimum. How do you think gellhorngal should handle them? Help her out with more advice here.
