How to remove a raccoon from a dumpster.

So you find a raccoon in your dumpster when you're taking out the trash. Here's how you remove it:

1) Scream like a schoolgirl.

2) Dance in a few quick circles while still screaming.

3) Put dog in car (because she came out with you to the dumpster).

4) Find something to remotely open the dumpster cover despite already having opened it with your hands earlier.

5) Repeatedly try to open the dumpster with a random cardboard box until the top is wide open. This might scare the raccoon a bit, but you must persevere.

6) After you finally get the top wide open, run away shrieking to your car.
