๐คฃ Raccoons, once introduced to the German town of Kassel by Nazi founder Hermann Gรถring in the 1930s, are now wreaking havoc on the local economy and terrorizing residents. ๐ฆ๐ฅ Gรถring originally brought the raccoons to the town for ecological purposes and to show off. However, a century later, their population has exploded to 2 million, causing major damage to the townโs infrastructure. ๐๐จ In Kassel, the raccoons destroy cars, kill both pets and farm animals, and even attack people. One farmer lost the use of his hand after a raccoon attack, and a woman developed sepsis. ๐๏ธ The German government has been unable to help, but local entrepreneurs have stepped in. Theyโve begun trapping the raccoons and making sausages from them. ๐ด๐ญ Authorities hope this solution will reduce the raccoon population and even attract tourists with the exotic offerings. ๐
