Japan's raccoon infestation has gotten considerably worse over the last decade, multiple Japanese news sources are reporting.
Nearly 1,300 raccoons were captured during the 2022 fiscal year, said Tokyo's government. This is about five times the number that were captured 10 years ago, reported Kyodo News, a Japanese news agency.
In 2013, the Japanese government reiterated the need to combat raccoons as an invasive species.
Raccoons are not native to Japan, but were brought to the country in the 1970s following the popularity of the 1977 anime "Rascal the Raccoon."

We had a racoon family come out from underneath the sewer in front of our house, I named the big one Brownie..never saw them again after corona hit
Love raccoons. Feed them out the library window. Great fun. Watched many generations pass thru our yard.

Right you are. In my younger years I went to many a social gathering wearing a raccoon coat. Sure, the coat was expensive. But the babes liked it. That was all that mattered.
Laccoon?
We're working on that. Ze bugs are what's for dinner.
Better than an illegal alien invasion.
When I used to commute to work during the dark mornings of the winter months, I’d see them coming out of the storm sewers all the time.
I grew up in Georgia and know what coons look like. That doesn’t look like any coon I’ve seen.
That was a pretty hefty wad of cash back the raccoon coat era.
Meanwhile the United States is being overrun with every rodent in the world.
I have been on a vegetarian diet but they are hard to catch. Maybe I will switch to raccoons.

Like the gazans brandDUHn wants to bring here? Yeah, I’d pick Ricky!
You've been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with raccoons. Hundreds of rabid, messy, mean raccoons have overtaken your basement. You want them gone immediately. You call the city and 4 different exterminators, but nobody can handle the job. But there is this one guy and he guarantees to get rid of them, so you hire him. You don't care if the guy smells, you don't care if the guy swears, you don't care if he's an alcoholic, you don't care how many times he's been married, you don't care if he has a plumber's crack, you simply want those raccoons gone! You want your problem fixed! He's the guy. He's the best!
Here's why we want Trump. Yes, he's a bit of a jerk; yes he's an egomaniac; but we don't care. The country is a mess because politicians suck, the Republicans and Democrats can be two-faced and gutless, and illegals are everywhere. We want it all fixed! We don't care that Trump is crude, we don't care that he insults people, we don't care that he has changed positions, we don't care that he's been married 3 times, we don't care that he fights with Megyn Kelly and Rosie O'Donnell, we don't care that he doesn't know the name of some Muslim terrorist.
This country became weak and bankrupt, our enemies were making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegals, and we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo, and Hasid is a special group with special rights to the point where we don't even recognize the country we were born and raised in; " AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED ". And Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want.
We're sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, sick of the Republican Party, and sick of illegals. We just want this thing fixed.
Trump may not be a saint, but we didn’t vote for a Pope. We voted for a man who doesn't have lobbyist money holding him back, a man who doesn't have political correctness restraining him. We all know that he has been very successful, he’s a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he's also not a politician, not a cowardly politician. And he says he'll fix it. And we believe him because he is too much of an egotist to be proven wrong or looked at and called a liar. Also, we don't care if the guy has bad hair. We just want those raccoons gone, out of our house, NOW.
You are welcome to pass this on. Thousands of people who haven't voted in 25 years seem to be getting involved. The raccoons have got to go!
Gots room fer all these critters by the cement pond.
Badger? Look at the talons on those front feet. Long snout. It isn't a coon.
Considering all the things I’ve seen Asians eat that come out of the ocean, I wouldn’t think that it would be a problem.
Proposal: Japan takes back all their kudzu and we send them 500 good ol’ boys with coonhounds to eradicate their coons.
