**Updated with news!**
Report from the wildlife expert:
An explosive increase in the raccoons population in Malas.
The raccoons which have been imported from another country, and to believed that some citizens in Malas have been imported raccoons as pets, after seeing a certain superhero movie, after they became 1 year old, they started to bite and scratch their owners, and was thus released into the wild.
With the recent leftovers from both christmas and easter, even easter bunnys that citizens have released for getting into the whole "easter spirit" have been a lucrative food source for the raccoons.
That and without a real predator in Malas (apart from those that they can outwit). Have led to the explosive increase in the raccoons population, and where the once overflow of food, which have been thinned down by the sheer increase of raccoons, and the less festive period of our country, forcing the raccoons to go out from shelter, and seek food where they have not dared to go before! If this continues, we will have a map overrun with raccoons, and it will be almost unstoppable, just by sheer numbers!
It's my estimate that they current raccoon population is already into the thousands.
**End of report**
This is truly a disastrous report, i have a rare photograph, with a raccoon in action, outwitting a confused chicken.

We have to unite and exterminate this threat!, it might be cruel, but there are no alternative!
If the raccoons are left alone, there will not be a single house left untouched in Malas, no matter what type of security there is!
Rules & Info:
-Kill and loot their unique fur (it's stackable, but if its not, do not fret, it might bug out sometimes)
-Try collect as many as you can, the 3 that collects the most will get some nice rewards!*, but there will also be a 4-20 place rewards aswell, but a minimum of 5 furs needs to be collected.
-When (if????) the raccoons have been exterminated, deliver them in a bag with a book contained your name, and account name (obviously not your password, account name is just for me to easier find you, if you are offline when im delivering the event rewards), and ofcourse in that bag, you need to place the furs.. Nothing els!.. A mailbox will be added to Luna, when the time draws close.
-Furs are ofcourse tradable between players!
-Raccoons spawn is across the whole map of Malas, apart from dungeons, they will respawn for a while. (Or better read: Raccoons are a very territorial animal, when a alpha raccoon have left an area, others might venture out and claim it as their own)
-Will last for a few days or so, might be a week, feel free to post suggestions!
*Rewards:
1st Place will get 2 deco pieces, one unique for being the no1 exterminator, and the common one. A elemental damage deed OF YOUR CHOISE! and a metallic leather dye tub (or if you prefer, a metallic clothing dyetub)
2nd place: 1 Deco everyone gets, plus a random elemental damage deed and a metallic leather dyetub (or if you prefer, a metallic clothing dyetub)**
3rd place: 1 Deco everyone gets, plus a random elemental damage deed, and a metallic clothing dyetub.**
**Might add a special deco for 2nd and third aswell.
4-20 place: 1 Deco piece
Happy hunting!
**Old post below**
Some alarming reports have been recieved from citizens in Malas, that childish pranks like tipping and emptying trash barrels and destroyed cropfields have been noted.
All over the map have strange reports of immature pranks been noted, no culprit have yet to be seen causing it, but it looks like a couple of young persons have been causing a minor riot. Even food storage units have been wrecked and emptied.
It is to believed that the pranks have been done during the nights.
A further investigation will continue and this thread will be updated!
Please be on the lookout for these young culprits!!
I'm on it.
I dunno what I'm supposed to do when I find them, but I think I'm on the right track.
Maybe.
Possibly.
....
I don't think it's teenagers!
I think it's little 'rascals' that are up to no good.
Nimble fingers on them little buggers!
I also found out who is causing the problems. I would hate to ""exterminate" them, so instead I would like to tame them. Is that even possible?
Negative.
They cannot be tamed.
>:(
Oh my. I fear we will have an epidemic on our hands. There must be a way to deal with this.
If only we had some cages... although they can be killed :)
As citizens of Pandora, we must unite and rid ourselves of these vermin!!!
after further investigation, raccoons are the ones behind all this. Please do not do anything drastic yet! I've got a wildlife biologist bringing me his report in a few hours from now!
Oops. I exterminated about 2 dozen of the little pests already.
Looks like the raccoon population has decreased...or vanished.
Bumped for more info! read top!

Temporary modified it a bit.. *cough*.. damn you were fast to notice that haha!
Also for the rest of you, each raccoon have one fur each. Those you have killed before this actually "started", had no effect.. On the other hand, never said you should kill em then =P.. Tried to get you all into the spirit hehe.. But i guess we got alot of
triggerslashy slash happy folks!
Again it looks like the plague has been defeated.
(Or: No raccoons in Malas, except for Luna.^^)
As written above, they are a very territorial creature.. When the alpha males dominate a territory, the others are in hiding. The raccoon pest is not over yet!
Just to make some things clear.
The end-date for giving me these furs, is not truly set.. But i say max one week after the event. (Feel free to pm me ingame or on forums if you know your going away for a few days etc, i will have a mailbox in luna bank for everyone to drop their furs to me, read how on the main post).
And about them not stacking, its not something i want em to, but somehow it looses that property, unsure on why.. Noticed it first with the scroll event, but i can just do a global command and fix all furs at the same time, no biggie. Just give me a pm whenever you need em stackable again if you are not, and i will do the global command whenever im able!)
The raccoon population seems to run dry!
Let's kill every last one of em!
Cmon people, let's get rid of these lil' varmints.
Last? Raccoon just killed!

Here's the full deal, sorry for the wait.. But i did enjoy teasing with James a bit (also made sure everyone got their fair chance of dropping the furs to me!)
Congratulation Fala and Chicken, and a big whoppin congratulation to James.. Im quite stunned on that feature of bringing in that amount of furs.
Ill be giving out prices as fast as i can, so check your bankbox!
Thanks ;D
I had a feeling you knew the suspense was killing me. The reason I got so many furs is I had no idea how many any else had, so....
First event I ever won.
Yea, your a 4x year old, that has a teenagers excitement but slams you back with a 30 year old single unemployed living on his last dollar anxiety personality, with a 70 year old veterans post traumatic stress and top it off with a big load of paranoia.. always nice to mess with that =P
I LOVE MY RACCOON COSTUME !!! Thanks Noll
