thanx for this cute video of mom racoon & her little ones looking for food & to be fed some food by humans. They are very smart & intelligent & can sense everything
I have a family of Racoons here outside my home in Northern California. They arrived after a big fire last july. A Mother and 3 offspring. The offspring were basically newborn and rode around on the mothers back when I first seen them. She had been getting into my trash making a huge mess looking for food. I began feeding them due to being tired of cleaning up the mess and feeling bad that the woods they called home had been burnt up. The offspring are now as big as the mother and every morning they wait for me on my deck knowing I will soon come outside with their food . They have become quite tame and I doubt they ever leave my property. Ive been working in my garage on my HotRod and noticed I had a audience a couple times. They stroll in watch me for a few minutes and then stroll out again. In the evening they will climb up on my patio table and sit patiently looking through the big window . When they see me walk by or sitting in my recliner they will stand and peer through the window at me just watching what I am doing. One evening in late October I was heading out to my pickup when the Racoons met me at my front door and were acting very weird and trying to get into my house . It was the first time they had ever got close enough to touch me or made a attempt to come inside. As I was trying to block their entry and pull the door closed without closing it on one of them I noticed why they had become so cozy all of a sudden.....On my front lawn and less then 50 ft from me a large male Mountain Lion had appeared from behind my large oak tree . A few moments later as the Racoons huddled together in a corner of my laundry room a friend of mine " Remington " chose to run the Cougar off the property. Unfortunately the Cougar chose to take a very aggressive posture with " Remington " and I after I fired 2 shells into the air hoping to run the beautiful fellow off without any harm coming to any of us and I was forced to defend myself with shell fired into the cougar head and chest while he was mid leap 6ft off the ground and less then then 6 inches away from the business end of " Remington " . A shame It forced me to defend myself and wasnt scared off by the prior 2 warning shots.
Saving a raccoon from a cougar, what a shame, feed the cougar too, raccoons are everywhere bumming for food. You will rarely see a cougar in the wild But raccoons are everywhere.
I love the music you chose for this video. I have watched it over and over because of the music and I love Raccoons. So happy they have you to care for them.
I had a,friend who lived in a trailer near a wooded area, two little raccoons would come by and we started feeding them first throwing the food their way, after a month or two, they would come up to us and take it from our hands. they were so cute and would come to the door and stand up and when we asked, "what do you want?" they would turn their heads to the kitchen knowing that that was where their food came from. Occasionally there was an opposum that would visit also, and he was docile as well...I wonder what happened to them, I have pics that I look at sometimes and miss them
Years ago I lived in the Boston suburbs near a lake. Raccoons were no strangers. One night I saw a raccoon and a cat "together" raiding garbage cans in my back yard. I was thinking no way these two are working together. A week later.......I saw same cat and I assume same raccoon doing the exact same thing in my back yard.
Hey Rob great footage :-) That was very kind of you to toss them something to eat :-) Thank you for the Raccoon facts :-) You my friend gets an Extra "BIG" thumbs up :-) ROCK ON!!!!!!!!
Thanks Fred. I think this was a young female, maybe her first litter. Some of the older ones are quite big and rotund. Hope you, Joi and the pups have a great weekend. Rock on!!🤘🏼🤘🏼
The Mom is sweetly tentative, Rob ~ Look how she's watching you! ~:) Her babies are precious! How adorable animals are whenever we just let em' do their thing! This is a precious capture! And, I love the track of music you selected for this one ~ it really fits nicely, my friend! Wonderful share Rob! Really enjoyed it this morning ~ Specially since I didn't have to go out back in the heat & humidity here to do that! Have a great weekend! Blessings to you & yours! ~D ~:)
I was tentative too Donna :) This was a strange raccoon and there's been a couple of reported raccoon attacks lately, but in both those cases people were walking their dog. I like this simple little track - it's called "Bettina" by Daniel Lanois from the Sling Blade soundtrack. I reckon them raccoons love them some French fried potaters, mmm hmm. Hope you and Dan have a relaxing weekend.
Jimmy I'm Native American, it is tradition for us to eat raccoons to celebrate the transition of the moon phases. However, we do not eat people and you should be ashamed of your comment.
42air23 Baby raccoons that small probably haven't really started eating solids yet. They still rely on their mother's milk so it's important that she gets to eat her fill.
Beautiful! I know this more than 3 years old but in my neighborhood in Texas I currently have a mom and her 3 kits that come in my backyard every night! She was nursing and look extremely underweight but is now starting to put some weight on after weaning the babies!!
I live north of Seattle...I have a mom and 4 babies. They live under my shed. Cat food ...gets expensive. But I love them! They have a baby pool and are hysterical! 😂💜
So kind to feed them. Around here it's possums. Extremely skittish. They come to the front porch at night to eat some of the food and water set out for the feral cats (cats have been "fixed"). The cats do not seem to mind the possums raiding their food bowls.
THANX FOR THE INFO ON RACOONS--DID NOT KNOW THIS INFO ON RACOONS!! THEY ARE VERY CUTE NON FEROCIOUS ANIMALS THAT DEPEND ON HUMANS FOR FOOD IT SEEMS TO BE & CANNOT FIND FOOD ON THEIR OWN THESE BEAUTIFUL CREATURES.
In the forest they eat their own natural diet, but when they are living amongst people they become scavengers because it's more urban. That is being adaptive, not relying on humans.
Hummmm...... Why did they roll the bread on the grass before eating it? Same as they do to kibble, dipping it in water then eating it. I'm very curious about it....
PopukoLemon * I read somewhere that their paws/hands are pretty sensitive but when they are wet they become even more sensitive and they use it to better feel their food and determine what it is they are eating without having to see it. Probably because they are mostly nocturnal.
I don't know, why they roll it...but I was told they don't.have saliva and the water helps moisten the food....maybe they want to make sure it's dead. The food...
I live in town,b have a big old tree...saw the Mom around this winter....last night the kits. 5, I saw for the first time...I don't know ... Too many, I think for town... kids around etc... they make a latrine.. I think It might be in my raspberry "thicket",. just wonder what to do I don't want them hurt trsumatized
Oh my... much better than skunks :) What did you feed them btw... and have they returned for more? Inquiring minds want to know 😳😳😳 *Fine music, and thanks for the facts! Interesting stuff:)
I FEED THEM TO, ESPECIALLY EARLY SPRING WHEN ANIMALS MOMS COME OUT FROM A LONG WINTER.HERE IN NYC SOME SUPER PORTERS AND SOME PEOPLE ARE NOT VERY KIND TO ANIMALS. ONCE I CATCH A PERSON PUTTING POISON ON THE SIDE WALKS, I WAS SO UNGRY AT HIM. GOD PUT THEM IN THIS WORLD, IF WE CAN'T TAKE CARE THEM DON'T HURT THEM EITHER. ANIMALS CAN'T GO TO SUPERMARKET OR RESTAURANT, TO BY FOOD, LIKE US. PLEASE TO EVERYONE UP THERE, BE KIND TO ANIMALS AND CHILDREN OLDER PEOPLE, AND EVERYONE ELSE. GOD WILL REWARD US FOR BEING KIND TO INNOCENT ANIMALS.
People who thinks that raccoons are aggressive mean and especially when they send their stupid dogs to kill them are sickening twisted evil scum that deserve life in prison!
@@VacuumandFirealarm they are absolutely disgusting and aggressive animals . One just recently attacked my 84 yr old grandmother who was just gardening in her own backyard because it walked through with its babies and decided it wanted to charge . Tore her arms and legs to pieces she’s had 2 surgeries with skin grafts and 2 blood transfusions as she laid in her yard bleeding out calling for help for so long. Nothing provoked this animal she was a frail and animal loving old woman on her own property it decided to stumble into . She will likely never walk now or live independently again they are known to attack at random ALL THE TIME. Especially if they have kits.
@@Kitten210421 i think you’re just one of those animal haters who is raccoon phobic because I’ve had raccoons that visited my yard and I’ve never had any issues with its you who’s the problem!
Theres this raccoon that has 8 babies.
Now she leaves them off with me whenever she needs to find food or something.
Im a raccoon sitter
How much you get paid
Oh my god lol
You are very kind!thank you!
A free raccoon sitter.
Same thing happens 2 me I guess we a babysittir
thanx for this cute video of mom

and then you woke up
That started off as such a nice story too:)
Then the cougar's daughter watching from the distance swore she would come back one day for revenge.
PERUANO31 lol 🤣

I love the music you chose for this video. I have watched it over and over because of the music and I love Raccoons. So happy they have you to care for them.
Well, humans have taken their forest, so I feel it is our responsibility to take care or at least respect wild animal life
😥
😥😥😥😥 agreed
@DrTheKay like your username doesn't sound like a virgin name lmao
this is how I think about it too!
@DrTheKay Stfu, you virgin
Jeez the mom stole all the food from the babies LOL. They are at a size where they can survive off only her milk.
Mom is teaching them a valuable lesson about how it works in the wild jk jk I love raccoons
Notice that only mom is very thin, babies is good but mom needs more food
The Mom is like, ugh cant have one meal in peace can I?
Gimme that, that's not good for you.
Love this!

Slot Lactater I hate people that are mean to raccoons and other animals!!!
I ate raccoon stuffing at a wild game dinner. I understand that raccoon tastes better if it died slowly rather than quickly!
Hi, does anyone have recipes for slow dying raccoon on here? I got so hungry while watching this video!
Jimmy I'm Native American, it is tradition for us to eat raccoons to celebrate the transition of the moon phases. However, we do not eat people and you should be ashamed of your comment.
I miss my Raccoons... sigh...
Such a nice thing you did Rob.
Damn the mom raccoon is a little “stingy” lol but still cute
42air23 Baby raccoons that small probably haven't really started eating solids yet. They still rely on their mother's milk so it's important that she gets to eat her fill.
She very thin, babies are good but she needs more food
Awww I love raccoons
This is a great video , I have 3 small possums that come here every night to eat tomatoes lettuce and some bread I can pet them too so cute
Bless their hearts.
Why am i crying. Lol
mikka blackwell me too
How can people be cruel to something that is tryna eat with and feed a family as well as we try to
mikka blackwell exactly!!!
Me too😭
I am too 😢 It’s the music!
Beautiful🌹Ty for feeding them & arent they soo cute..smart & trusting they are when we instill that to them.. love
The two smallest ones are too adorable
Awesome! It is fun to watch these critters play and eat. They have adapted to human settlement very well. Great video.
Beautiful! I know this more than 3 years old but in my neighborhood in Texas I currently have a mom and her 3 kits that come in my backyard every night! She was nursing and look extremely underweight but is now starting to put some weight on after weaning the babies!!
They are sooo cute ❤ thank you for feeding them. I love Raccoons
So cute! 🐾😊

when I catch carp in streams, I always throw them up on the bank, i know a raccoon will find it and have several days of food...
Love their little grabby hands
thank you for feeding them... tis is beautiful
mommy is so skinny , I am glad you were feeding her....
Mine loved circus peanuts and candy orange slices, this video makes me miss mine
Buckwild 65 sorry for your loss they are the most beautiful animals
I can't believe I just saw a raccoon and her babies around the same size in this video in back yard first time ever just too cute
I'm naming two of them Rigby and Rocket
"Uh, mom? Don't we count?"
Mom was thin in the video and at their age, the baby raccoons can't really eat solids very well. Mother raccoon knows best
THANX FOR THE INFO ON RACOONS--DID NOT KNOW THIS INFO ON RACOONS!! THEY ARE VERY CUTE NON FEROCIOUS ANIMALS THAT DEPEND ON HUMANS FOR FOOD IT SEEMS TO BE & CANNOT FIND FOOD ON THEIR OWN THESE BEAUTIFUL CREATURES.

Beautiful little family!!!!
Beautiful video sir and thank your compassion to this beautiful family🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I don't even know how I got here!
Hummmm...... Why did they roll the bread on the grass before eating it? Same as they do to kibble, dipping it in water then eating it. I'm very curious about it....

Read the description...(above)
Contrary to what people say and think, raccoons are very clean animals, they prefer to wash and clean their food.
I don't know, why they roll it...but I was told they don't.have saliva and the water helps moisten the food....maybe they want to make sure it's dead. The food...
They're so cute!!!!
We have a family of raccoons living under our deck. I feed them when they come out.
My Sister had them living in her basement window well. It was great, like a Raccoon aquarium.
That was very kind of you, ty
I love raccoons, they are simply irresistible
Babies raccoons is so cute!
Omg I love this so much!!! I feed my family of raccoons at night I named all of them :)
I feed mine cat food. I respect them.
They are really hungry raccoons!! The mom was very skinny and so were the babies. It must be very hard for them too be finding food
I love these animals . So very smart and those babies are so cool
Please take good care of them! I believe good people will have good return.
you have a very beautiful yard and garden. you’re so lucky to see animals all the time ;(
Its like the dont know what to do with their hands. Its weird that they eve have hands. Like putting hands on a dog or cat lol giant squirrels
Lovely. Thanks for helping with a hand out.
Awwwwi love them! So happy you’re feeding them
Amazing bro and cute cat
Beautiful; the music too!
Thank you for being so kind to them 👍
This is so sweet and
precious❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The music goes beautifully with it❤️😢❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cartoons have come to Life ❗ So relaxing watching them 😃😃😃
I live in town,b have a big old tree...saw the Mom around this winter....last night the kits. 5, I saw for the first time...I don't know ... Too many, I think for town... kids around etc... they make a latrine..
I think It might be in my raspberry "thicket",. just wonder what to do I don't want them hurt trsumatized
It looks like that raccoons love cat and dog kibbles more than plain bread.
Oh my... much better than skunks :) What did you feed them btw... and have they returned for more? Inquiring minds want to know 😳😳😳
*Fine music, and thanks for the facts! Interesting stuff:)
They're rolling the bread because it must be stale or hard. Can you give them maybe dog food or something crunchy?
Great video ))
Thanks Jeff, I know you like the critters. 😄👍🏼
Awww she ate all the food :-( the smallest didn’t even get a piece .
Lena Jack It's okay. Babies that small are still nursing and don't need to eat solid food yet. Mama eating means they're eating too.
She verrrry thin, babies are good but mom needs more food
Look how gratefull the Raccoons are. Music is very sad but beautifull.
Evertime i see a video of a raccoon reminds me of Ricky raccoon and its song from the Tv program of Sesame Street.
Thank you for being kind to them.
What are they eating? Is it fruit or meat?
Какие они милые!!)))
I love raccoons very much. Every night they are coming on my back porch. I feed them with cat food.
Is that working out....they scare me ehen they get really close.
.they move so fast....
Awww... my nights now complete
Beautiful.
I love racoons!!!
The name of the music is "Bettina" off of the Slingblade soundtrack. You can thank RUclipss own Mr. Jack Lambert for the insight. 🎶 🎶
What is the name of the track being played?
The only time I heard that music is from the movie Slingblade
@@jacklambert1417 thank you very much, it is beautiful.
Her trust is a wonderful gift, isn’t it?
I cry because music and i miss my mother :((
Nice choice of music

The background music reminds me of Creed (Band). Or maybe Parabol and Parabola by Tool.
Karl Childers says you should give 'em some French fried potatoers, uh hmm.
I love raccoons
Well now I'm pissed. That one little racoon, the most skittish one, didn't get anything to eat.
She greedy and not making sure her babies rest the one got no food at alll
She’s very thin, babies are good but mom needs more food
La mamá tenía tanta hambre que no le dejaba nada a sus bebés.. están lindos!!
I agree at all i give to wild animals the chiken bones ham fat hard skin cheese hard old bread etc all is eaten.
You didn't throw enough food to the babies. :/ I don't think the littlest one got anything. :(
Lovely thank you for the lecture good stuff
People who don't love raccoons are heartless and stupid. I'm Catlady Redd here in Muncie Indiana and the raccoons are beautiful!!

I wonder if the babies have been weaned?
That's one big racoon.
Please help them with food and water when they come to you. Like is hard for them.
Mom stole food from the baby.
She’s very thin, she’s very hungry and more food.. babies are fine
You better had feed them or i would have come lookin' for you!
Estoy triste por q mi mapachito murio hoy por la mañana
0:55 3 heart breakers were appeared.
Is that Tom nook’s ex wife
What a music!
Why didn't you give the littlest fluffiest one food, it missed out completely!!!
Tough life for raccoons.
