    LOVE it! We had a pet raccoon when I was a kid. When we went on vacation, we left it with my best friend whose mom was my mom's best friend and was absolutely crazy!! By the time we got home, Karyl had taught our pet to sit up at the table -- on a chair -- and, using a spoon, eat ice cream from a bowl!!! They are SO smart!!!

    I was always scared of Raccoons due to other people advise, but last summer a mother raccoon came to me with 4 beautiful babies. Since then 5 of them became my best friends.Sometimes they come behind the window just to check up on me. Every night at 10 PM we have gathering. A glass of wine for me and big bowl of cat food and veggies for them. We spend an hour together.I have learned so much about them. Their palm of their hand feels like pure silk, the most softest one. One of them has to take my hand in her/ his hand while eating. I will not change the feeling with billions of dollars.

    Raccoons can be one of the more challenging animals to catch because of how smart they are. The company i work for use live traps to safely catch and relocate raccoons, but if a raccoon has dealt with one of those traps before they will avoid it. Often times start flipping traps or reaching in through the bars to get the food.

      I'm pretty sure the racoon cannot see through the opaque latch to actually observe how it may work, so from the perspective of the racoon she can see a near horizontal beam of indistinguishable colour, given near color blindness. So, I'm pretty sure that the theory stands: the racoon had to rely predominantly on prehensile sensory input to initiate the unlocking of the door.

    About a decade ago, I was taking out the trash, and my community started putting clamp locks on the trash cans. That night I saw a family or heard, not sure what to call it but about 3 raccoons standing around my trash. The biggest one was right in front and had it’s paw on its face while the other two were standing on two leaning on each side of the trash can. The big one made a high pitch noise and the two on the side shook my bin until it had fallen forward all three approached the trash and started chewing on the clamp. Then the biggest one put its paw under the latch and popped it straight open letting the weight of the trash and gravity do some work. Talk about team work I was so amazed at the thought process and execution of the task I threw out some chicken breast scraps from my place. Unfortunately they picked up the scraps and ran away before I could snag a good picture. And unfortunately left me with quite a bit of trash to pick up but boy oh boy was that interesting to see.

    We had a male raccoon when. I was in my early 20's. My sister brought it home. It was a very tiny baby . As it grew it went from one " animal proof" cage to another, unlocking each as he figured it out. Finally, I built a large cage 6' x 6' x 6 ' and it was locked with a combination lock. But whenever I came to feed him he watched me studiously hoping to figure it out. That was the only one that stopped him.

      @@jpeg.600x2 I guarantee that my story is true. In the final cage which was secured with a combination lock the raccoon would come over to where I was unlocking the door to feed him in order to watch what I was doing.
      Did he understand what a combination lock was it how it worked ? I sincerely doubt it. But he was conscious of the fact that I was opening the door by my actions. Raccoons are seriously intelligent creatures. Their hands are almost as dexterous as human hands. They are as soft as a baby's behind. But, cute as they are, they can be seriously vicious.

      There are many people who have tamed raccoons as pets but they are very destructive and difficult to have as pets. They will destroy your house while you're gone.

      Dogs were first domesticated around 14,000 years ago. Since then, through selective breeding, we've made each generation more gentle, docile and suited to life with humans. Raccoons are still wild animals, and while they're not always vicious, they haven't had nearly enough generations being domesticated to breed out their violent and destructive behavior. They're not safe for your home, your children, or your other pets. Wild raccoons also frequently carry rabies, as well as roundworms and various other diseases which are transferable through contact with the infected raccoon's feces. Unless we start up a raccoon domestication project like they're doing with foxes in Russia, raccoons aren't likely to become popular as pets.

      Did you not hear the part where the narrator compares raccoons to monkeys? And monkeys make terrible pets. The more intelligent an animal is, the more mental stimulation it needs not to become neurotic, destructive, and aggressive.

      You need to get out more and exercise your social skills. Be a force for good around you if you don't like your own kind. Are you just going to sit there loving raccoons while the world burns around you? If you don't like people, make friends with them and teach them how to be.

      @@silverrain530 I know that Yahshua came and spoke the truth and was killed for it. He also said, "They will put you out of the synagogues and even think by killing you they are offering service to God. But they do these things because they have neither known me or my father. But I say these things so that when they happen, you may remember that I told them to you."
      So I am able to do this work and suffer at the hands of people over and over again and be treated like I'm an imposter and illegitimate and even my own mother believes that I'm not a servant of God. But I know in whom I have believed and so I endure everything for the sake of the cross of Christ who came and spoke the truth to the people and was killed for it.
      These people don't want to know the truth! They want to have it both ways and still think of themselves as having acceptance. But wisdom is justified by all her children.

    That latch (with the hook) was positioned badly, from the racoon's POV :( Fastening it upside down (with the hook wedged in to keep it closed) would have made it easier for the animal to just bop it and make it fall on account of gravity.

Well fast forward a few minutes I hear scratching and something eating. I get out of my tent and it’s a raccoon! He opened my food bag and dragged all my food into the woods! Well I picked up after him and then put my bag in my car. Never did see him again.
