Meet Larry!

Larry the raccoon.

This is Larry. He is a raccoon. Larry lives in a big city. He has lived in the city his whole life.

During the day, Larry sleeps in an empty house. Sometimes, he goes to the junkyard and sleeps in an abandoned car. At night, Larry looks for food. He is very good at getting into garbage cans to find scraps of food to eat. He also knows which restaurants throw food out for the alley cats and he makes sure to get his share.

One day, Larry was sharing a particularly delicious meal in the alley with one of his cat friends. The cat warned Larry that because there are too many raccoons in the city, city workers have been capturing them in cages and driving them away in trucks.
