The vast and well manicured lawns of the Presidential Mansion, the seat of office and residence of the most powerful man on earth, is under attacked by masked bandits—of the four-legged kind.

A pack of raccoons were reported roaming the grounds near the White House. The National Park Service are already dealing with the furry intruders with permission from the Secret Service. Live traps, with cat food, apples, and peanut butter (hopefully salmonella-free variety) as bait, were set up throughout the grounds to lure and capture the raccoons without hurting them. Once caught, the raccoons will be released into a wooded area of Washington, D.C.

According to www.presidentialmansion.com says President Calvin Coolidge and his wife, Grace, had a pet raccoon during their time in the White House. The raccoon’s name was Rebecca.
