Raccoons like this one at the Kentucky Wildlife Center especially enjoy PumpkinMania leftovers.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

A handful of slimy pumpkin guts may not sound very tasty, but it’s a Halloween treat for some critters \u2014 especially ones that look like they’re wearing masks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After carving more than 600 jack-o’lanterns for this year’s PumpkinMania<\/a>, Transylvania University donated the scooped-out pumpkin guts to the Kentucky Wildlife Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I would say the ones that like it the most are the raccoons,” said Beth Knapp, assistant manager for the nonprofit on Georgetown Road. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, eating pumpkin seemed to help the ones that were feeling nauseous. “That was an extra bonus,” said Knapp, who added how much she appreciated the gift of guts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the raccoons, most of the rescued animals at the center \u2014 from skunks to ducks to groundhogs \u2014 enjoyed the Halloween treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kelsey Ley, manager of Transylvania’s campus appearance, said she thought the donation would be a great way to help out wildlife. “Plus with our mascot being a bat, what better way to honor Raf than helping animals in need.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, Ley said finding a good use for the discarded guts is part of a campus commitment to sustainability. (Along those lines, the school sources the pumpkins locally<\/a> from Overman\u2019s Bluegrass Fruits and Vegetables.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the jack-o’-lanterns themselves are headed to the center for an additional post-Halloween snack. The rest are headed to the Haley Pike compost facility where a city contractor will process them into mulch, according to the City of Lexington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
