My neigborhood is a mess.

I live trap raccoons and take them to a much more rural area.
Possums and armadillos too.
Years ago I caught a raccoon in my live tender trap and didn't have time that evening to take him to the nature preserve that's down the road a piece. He had water and some food but the next morning he pulled the trap apart enough to get out lol.

I'll agree with that. They absolutely destroy the yard digging for something.
 
They can Typhoid and the Bubonic Plague
 
I have to repost the coyote at my back door wanting in.

We have lots of wildlife because we're next to a large Pine Forest. Sprinkled with $5 million dollar homes. (Not mine.) It's called Black Forest, Colorado. The bottom photo is the ranch which in a different edge of the forest.

Across the valley from me is the United States Air Force Academy. They have 6000 acres of forested mountain side. That place is like a wildlife preserve!

I don’t mind critters. I hate the wild turkeys, opossum aren’t bad the eat ticks and are pretty easy to move. I pick them up like a cat and take them out to center of section let them go.

Whats the problem with the turkeys?
 
Turkeys and pheasant compete for the same bugs for food. The hen turkey will wipe out a whole hatch of young pheasants.

The funny part is, get out of the cities and there’s a lot of timber everywhere! Luv timber.
 
I read the history of the Black Forest. They say the lumber for every house in Denver and all the rail road tracks came from cutting that forest 100 years ago. So that's all new from 100 years ago. I have some very tall conifers in my landscape that I planted 25 years ago. The best time to plant trees is 20 years ago and right now.
 
I just now went down to get something to drink and there was a raccoon sitting on that back porch step, where the coyote was. He was looking inside for a treat so I threw 3 slices of whole wheat bread for him. He just sat down and ate them. I had thrown some pie crusts out earlier today for whomever, obviously that wasn't enough. I'll see if he comes back at 11:00 pm tomorrow. I talked to him quite a bit. He wasn't scared at all.
