This is amazing. Someone must have dropped some fast food wrappers or chicken bones on that bus or something, or as Jim Herd suspects, the drivers feed them. (Yeah, we know this photo has been posted all over the place today, but who can resist?!)

Typical San Francisco:
lots of beggars looking for handouts.
It's a great photograph. Thanks for posting it.
Feeding the racoons in golden gate park is a longstanding local tradition. They especially like doritos.
There's what, 12 raccoons there? At $2 a pop that's $24. I hope they paid!
You can tell that they Racoonus Americanum, if they Racoonus Chinum, they would all be trying to board via the rear door...
Should adult raccoons pay the youth fare just because they're under 17? Maybe that's why MUNI is broke.
Best comment so far is over at Laughing Squid by king kong Ninja:
“We lost our transfers. Also, we’re raccoons.”
“Step right on.”
I like "StonesMerced". Maybe the raccoons are stoned?
Can that bus swing by my house and pick up the damn raccoons that party outside my back door and hurl my potted plants three stories to the ground? I'd love for them to get dropped off round stonesmerced.
If your pots have dishes of water under them, the 'coons probably just want to wash their nasty food in the water. Try either avoiding having standing water, or give them a decoy dish of clean water they can use.
