    Roxie leading her babies to the house looks much like one of us taking our kids out to see wildlife. Now kids, these humans seem TAME, but they need to spend most of the day in their enclosure.

    They can be so sweet. Many years ago, we heard a scratching at our back door. Opened it to find a young, pregnant female raccoon who had obviously seen some rough times - she was blind in one eye and had several visible scars. We fed her - she was asking for help. And when the babies were born, she brought them to us as well. For about 6 years, we met each new brood. They would come and sleep in the sun on our back deck and made us laugh so often with their wrestling and tumbling about. We missed her so much when she didn't return for a 7th year. We never names any of the younglings, but we always called her our Bebe.

    I was extremely lucky to raise 4 baby raccoons when their mother died. It was the most amazing experience of my life. Bottle feedings teaching them to climb trees. Watching videos like this brings back fond memories for me. At one point they knew it was time to leave and explore the world. I grew up in a 500,000 acre ranch. So no local police or nosy neighbors complaining.
    They were incredibly smart and they LOVED vanilla wafflers. They would dip them in water. And afterwards they would wash their hands in water like humans do. They figured out how to work through locks. They saw how we used our hands and did the locks in the same way. Raccoons are extremely intelligent. If I could raise another set of raccoons, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

      This is so fucking dumb. She had a chance to simply not interact with the raccoon and scare it away to teach it that its source of food is no longer from human hands. Now she's taught generations upon generations of raccoons in that area that it's okay to approach humans and see them as safe. That's _not_ good for them and this shouldn't be encouraged. Not only that, you don't let your 1 year old child hand feed them. They are still wild animals and a baby's behavior can startle them for whatever reason. One of them could be in the early stages of rabies or distemper and after the baby hand feeds the raccoon, its saliva is now on the baby's hand, and then the baby puts its hand in its own mouth. It's just so, so irresponsible. People _have_ to stop treating wild animals like pets, and at the very least, stop subjecting their children to the dangers of them.

    I love Racoons. Had 1 fall through a hole in my ceiling in the kitchen where I had not put a new vent hood up yet. Heard one night a sound in my kitchen went in there saw a bread pan on the floor that fell off my stove. So reach down to pick it up and it moved so I moved it a little and a paw came out. Pulled it off and picked up a baby racoon. Got a baby bottle out and fed him til he was able to eat solid food. So I let loose out side. Now he comes up every night for food I leave on a table . I see him come up with 3 to 4 more at times. I just watch them through my window. Wish he still came to me but glad I let him go.

      Feeding the first raccoon was already not necessary it seems like, but teaching multiple generations of its offspring to rely on and seek humans out for food is going to create future problems.

      ​@@englishatheartThat is sooo not the same thing! This is federally illegal in the USA for many reasons. Desensitizing wildlife to humans/ pets can easily be a death sentence... for them & us. Feeding inappropriate/ contaminated food can cause illness or even kill them. We transmit diseases/ illness to each other. Habituating them to humans can cause them to approach unsuspecting people looking for food/ attention, they may think that they have Rabies bc of their unusual behavior and call the authorities to deal with them (read: murder them to be on the safe side). But the hunters really love this stupidity.
