Why, hello, Earth Rangers! I\u2019m Luna the crow and you caught me at a great time. I was just about to help my squirrel friend, Eclipse, find something to eat! Won\u2019t you join us?<\/p>\n\n\n

We\u2019re just heading over to the recycling bin to see what\u2019s on the menu. What? You expected us to find food ourselves\u2026in the forest? But that\u2019s hard!<\/em> This is so much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you mean recycling bins aren\u2019t a restaurant? Well, Eclipse\u2019s nose is telling us otherwise. You know those jars of peanut butter and pasta sauce? They smell delicious!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Now, I know that going through trash isn\u2019t safe. I\u2019m going to do my best to keep Eclipse from getting into trouble! There are lots of things in these recycling bins that are dangerous for animals. Sometimes, jars and containers can have bits of food left in them. Then, someone like Eclipse smells it, pokes her head in to get the leftovers, and gets stuck. It\u2019s not a pretty sight!<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Wait\u2026you don\u2019t want us to go through your stuff? Like at all? Oops<\/em>\u2026you might need to get better lids for your compost and garbage cans then. I know some clever raccoons, opossums, skunks, and bears who can easily open these up. A tightly-fitting lid with clips would definitely make it harder for us to get into and we\u2019d probably just end up foraging somewhere else. You may also want to try:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Washing out food containers REALLY well.<\/li>
  • Making a trash enclosure, with your family\u2019s help, of course!<\/li>
  • Fixing any holes in your bin so we can\u2019t squeeze in.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n

    HEY ECLIPSE! DROP THAT RIGHT NOW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Do you see that thing Eclipse has in her mouth? She must have smelled the food on it. If those edges are sharp, it can be super dangerous for her. Imagine if I wasn\u2019t here to protect her? Help us by R<\/strong>espect(ing) A<\/strong>nimals W<\/strong>hile R<\/strong>ecycling (RAWR)!<\/p>\n\n\n
