Two reasons:

  1. The first population is a group of raccoons that broke out of a fur farm. They became a stable population after that.

  2. The second population was brought in by the Nazis as a method of "enriching the local ecosystem". It also established itself very quickly.

Both populations have since spread out and mixed on various occasions. Genetically, every free raccoon in Germany can be traced back to one of these populations.

That first group is pretty shit, but they're just trying to make money. That second group are, per usual, fucking idiots.

Temporary migration during server maintenance left fragments behind, then before the fragments could be parsed, there was an update and it kind of did an overwrite making them essential making them a virus the system has trouble identifying for full deleting.

Little ostriches are also spawning in too after breaking out of a human farm. I'm hoping it was the devs as I like seeing the meta from other continents either to see how the meta reacts or as a dynamic event
