I think all wild animals should be killed immediately, hunt every last
species to extinction. I put my garbage out last night and this morning
it was all over the yard and street, and it definitely wasn't dogs
unless dogs like apple cores and corn cobs. My guess is either deer,
raccoons, or possums.

Next week I'm going to put the trash out and sit outside and if it is
deer, the next night's dinner is going to be venison!

Probably Coons. Opossuums don't scatter as much as I think you indicated.
Deer? Probably not.
You might consider putting their delectables on a bench or something
where you can watch them from your window.
You can never get rid of them. If you shot that bunch, next week there
would be new ones from down the block.
Latching trash containers are available.

Yeah, it was raccoons. I was cleaning up the kitchen late tonight, heard
something on the back porch, turned on the light and saw three raccoons.
The problem is that they're so cute, it's hard to get mad at them for
scattering my garbage all over the place. They're pretty brave too, I
hollered at them for at least a minute before they took off.

And as for your suggestion to latch my garbage cans, I can't. My garbage
service uses those standardized cans that can be lifted by robot arm, so
there is no way to secure the lid.

Raccoons are bastards.

The white zone is for loading and unloading only. If you have to load
or unload, go to the white zone. You'll love it. It's a way of life.

I haul my garbage to disposal a couple times a week out here in the boonies.
I know the type of container you are talking about.
About the only thing I can come up with is maybe constructing a properly
posted containment area with a fence charger and closely space enough
fencing so any critter would get a dose if he tried to get to the cans.
Put the water tight on off switch right on the contained area. Trip it
and take the trash to the curb.
My Brother In Law did something similar several years ago to stop dogs.
It worked great. A couple of days though, there were some serious
anguishing by some dogs, when they met Mr Electricity.

Man, does the web have to do your thinking for you? Just get a good
elastic bungee cord (less than one dollar) latch it across the lid of
your disposal can and end of garbage problem.

Go figure, gun geeks: Now get back in your trailer and fry something.
