My Little Garden Zoo Closes Early

Every Zoo has its rules.  Mine are simple.  Don't touch the animals.  Unfortunately, Raccoons don't find the rules humans concoct very useful to their agenda.  Hence, this has been a year of constant battle.  Every few days, some part of the zoo has been tampered with.  Then an area of habitats gets ravaged!  Animals strewn about "helter skelter".  Plants torn out. Pottery tipped over and on occasion shattered.

It's been so disheartening.  No space is safe.  Two figurines remain missing.  One no longer available for sale.  I've invested too much into this little joy to allow a rambunctious critter to steal away with my little animal figurines.
