Raccoon Lebensraum

Nazi raccoons have taken over Europe!

Raccoons released by Hermann Goering in Germany in 1934 to “enrich the Reich’s fauna” are threatening to succeed where their Nazi benefactors failed by conquering Europe. They have become so successful that German authorities revealed this week that raccoon numbers are now at record levels – with more than a million in Germany alone.

[With bad German accent]”Zey are zuch beautiful creatures. They vill make ze countryside alive with zeir beauty!” If you’re unemployed, apparently Austria is hiring raccoon hunters.
