I have a raccoon that keeps getting in my garbage or bird feeder. Can the Police Department help me?

We’re sorry, but the Police Department does not respond to wild animal calls. We do not remove wildlife simply because it is on your property. However, if the animal is causing property damage you may set your own live traps. If you trap an animal, do not take it to some other part of town and release it. This could potentially spread disease.
