Explanation:
In "Raccoon Olympics" we are introduced to a narrative where traps are placed in the trees of an ecological field to capture raccoons. Paul King is the naturalist who works in the park and was hired to inspect these traps. He is talking to the storyteller, who is a child and her father. Paul explains that the traps are placed because raccoons do not have a predator in the environment and end up reproducing a lot and causing overpopulation problems. When we read the story, we can see that raccoons are captured to be killed, but in order not to traumatize the child and not expose him to uncomfortable situations, Paul says that raccoons are captured to participate in swimming competitions between them.
