819 Yonge St.
“Thank you for letting us know. This was
reported a short while ago and Animal Services has been notified,” the
311 account responded.
But the raccoon wasn’t picked up, and by 3
p.m., someone had placed a red rose in on of the critter’s paws. A
framed photo of a raccoon and a condolence card was also placed by the
body:
