Original Toronto Star caption: Holding a carrot. Ray McIntyre tries to lure a raccoon out of the vancant house next door to him on Helendale Ave.; in the Duplex Ave.-Eglington Ave. area. But the raccoon remains on its side of the kitchen roof where the two houses join. Two adult raccoons set up househeeping in the two-storey house two months ago; and now they have three little ones. They're driving us crazy - running around at all hours of the night; scratching on the walls; rooting through the garbage. McIntyre says. Anyone who wants raccoons is welcome to them; he adds.
