A pair of raccoons race across the front steps of a home in downtown Kalispell, Montana Wednesday morning, May 21, 2008. Raccoons are not native to western Montana, but have spread across Montana following riparian areas, according to a Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks website. Raccoons are opportunistic omnivores and will sometime raid garbage cans or gardens near homes.
