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.
I had the same thought haha like a introduction "These animals are called 'humans' and these subjects are very friendly, but still need to be treated with caution. Most of these creatures are dangerous and you must run from them."
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.
Had a similar story with a squirrel. She'd come inside bc we'd feed her nuts. It was a sad day when she didnt return but I'm sure her offspring are somewhere.
She's showing them around 🤭🤭 "See kids, and THIS is your major food source for the future, always remember to be polite and cute! Be nice to the human lady, she didn't get lucky this year, only one of her litter survived. Show some compassion!" 🤭🤭
Wow that is a very special bond! Rosie knows she is safe there so she will continue to stay there, and her babies will end up staying around that area❤ Her daughter will grow up and appreciate our wild critters in a special way
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.
*That's awesome, because we know how some neighbor and wildlife agency just don't want people to be happy enjoying natural wildlife that God gave us to enjoy.*
they are indeed smart and pretty sociable and have manners which is better than some humans. I remember my wife walking home at night and encountering a family of raccoons. instead of scampering away when they encountered my wife, they stopped by the street where my wife was walking along and let her pass. it was only until my wife passed them by that they continue walking to where they were going. my only worry about wildlife is some of them could be rabid which is scary.
What an amazing friendship! One you don't hear of everyday. Thank you for taking care of this racoon and her family. If everyone could be like you, the world would be a better place for the animals.
We put food out for the feral cats in the area, and the wildlife eat whatever is left overnight. We had two raccoon moms last year. Always curious how many families we'll see each spring.
In the case of the cats you can actually do something about that though wildlife is wildlife so raccoons stay outside but “feral” cats can be turned into regular cats and you should definitely do that loo
Cat rescue people told me you cant do that with adult feral cats..i did catch like 9 males including 3 young ones and got them fixed. They fight over females, food and territory. Those young ones i kept in my front yard. I have dogs so i cant bring them in, but i provide food and shelter for them. They trust us now but won't let us pet them. They run away @pavloszimbrakos4410
Awesome about the wildlife not the feral cats, we have issues with that in my neighborhood. Feral cats everywhere having litters all over yet people keep feeding them….
As she said, she ONLY does it because the previous owners fed the raccoon. She's dependent on them now. That's why they say to never feed the wildlife!
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.
@dismalrealms3587 I was looking for this comment, I came across a rabbit skunk few weeks ago. Took abt 4 shots before it stopped running. Pretty rare in my area tho.
Living in New Zealand 🇳🇿 USA 🇺🇸 What a beautiful sight. Your dear little friend Roxie and her babies then then the meeting and greeting of your baby. Nice view. Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤😊
When I rented a house, there were 3 raccoons that would come & peer in the windows..I called them Peepers, Jeepers & Creepers. I'd feed them & then they brought their babies to visit scampering in & out between my feet. It was so cute to watch them.
This is wonderful! So cute and she even responds to her name! And you also realize the importance of it’s an animal that belongs with its own! This is simply adorable ❤❤

What a wonderful thing to watch. Just 2 mums sharing their babies with eachother. It doesn't matter one is human and one is an animal...being a mother is the same. All of your babies are so lucky to have you as mums ❤🙌🙏
We humans are also animals that share our mammalian genes with other mammals even marine mammals. I once visited a marine mammal rehab center and held flippers with a seal, I could feel it's human like hand under it's skin covering. All mammals including us, share an ancient common ancestor. 😀
Plus a family of Racoons to bond with. How lucky. There's a video roughly the same on RUclips but it's Roe Deer that come to the door. See if you can find the video where a Golden Retriever befriends a Red Squirrel l. That's the best one I've saw yet.
One of the coolest Dodo’s I have seen!! What a major blessing for you and your family and for Roxie’s family!! That is an absolute gift from God !!🇺🇸👏🙌👍👍✝️💯
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.
👏😻👍Good on you for not exploiting the situation! I'm very proud of you for doing the right thing & not keeping them/ using them to make a "funny video" for attention online 🥇🏆🥇
I love raccoons and had a relationship with them when I lived on the farm. I'm teary eyed reminiscing. Always cherish your friendship with these guys. It's not an accident that they came to you.❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@jamesmcivor340Rick & Susan are correct! Plus, feeding inappropriate & contaminated food can cause illness or even kill them. And habituating wildlife to humans risks them approaching unsuspecting people who may think that they have Rabies bc of their unusual behavior, so they call the authorities to deal with them (read: murder them to be on the safe side).
@@SusanKay- Sounds like you have failed whatever children you're teaching not to eat lead paint. Why would you be in an area that still uses lead paint? Why are you using 30 year old methods to scare old-fashioned value families. If you're worried about the 1 in 10,000 chance to get round worm, Id like to tell you about this disease that mosquitos carry that is 100% harder to stop from biting children than a raccoon.
Really special to share a maternal showing with an animal, I've seen lots of vids of wild animals showing human friends their new babies, but I've never seen it the other way around!
Omg Roxi has the sweetest, most expressive and sensitive eyes! She is so so so cute. This video made me cry, and melt! I’m so beyond jealous!!! Such a sweet and wholesome story though!! I love this friendship! And I love that you girls can relate since you are both moms now! Adorable ❤
I had always heard negative things about raccoons and their ability to get in where they aren’t wanted. Just goes to show, it’s always good to get another opinion, first handed! Thanks for sharing. They are cute, aren’t they? I hope they stay well behaved!
Roxie respectful asf. She stepped over the shoes to get some food. 😂 Roxie NEVER LET YOU MEET HER MAN THOUGH….YOU NEVER LET ROXIE MEET YOUR MAN EITHER😂😂😂😂 How much trust y’all really got?🤔
Wow! How fortunate you are. You must have such good "nature", that Roxie sensed from you. I currently have a Momma who brings 5 kits out to play with me at exactly 10:30 every night!! One, Two, Three, and Four little sets of eye's and paws, rolling, wrestling, and purring away! I know exactly how you feel.. Why would they say "Wild Animal"??Raccoons are Awesome, smart, easy to care for and just a load of fun!! Maybe I will post some video of Momma and her little one's!! Raccoons Definitely Rock!!!
I have 2 acres of dense woods that is my property in my back yard along with an additional 18 acres of forest owned by neighbors. I HAVE A ROVING GANG OF RACCOONS who have lived in my backyard since I moved in around 2008 and I try not to feed them by hand or personally put out food but I do throw out my scraps and leftovers in my back yard off the porch and the gang of Raccoons help themselves to the “EVERY TUESDAY NIGHT, WEDNESDAY MORNING ALL INCLUSIVE ALL YOU CAN EAT TRASH CAN BUFFET” the neighborhood puts out. I usually once a month have to help a youngster raccoon who can’t figure out how to get back out of the trash can. I’ll hear yelping or scratching when I come home from work after midnight and help a youngster out of my trash can.
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.
@@robertsimon-kroppmanns7287 Except we do far more harm than good to nature, so the least we can do is feed its creatures. Might as well say not to feed homeless people.
Shove off. We constantly destroy nature and nonhumans. The least we can do is feed these animals, especially when they lose much of their natural food sources because of us.
@@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.
Thank you for the video showing co existence with love, joy and kindness. This is so good for tbe soul instead of the aggression and violence we see so often.
Too awesome.. my racoon has been bringing her brood every year for me to watch while she rests and eats. They are adorable. Dodo is the best channel there is.. daily smiles..👍💛💛💛💛💛
I used to have a pet raccoon he was the best pet ever I love them his mama got killed so I had to bottle feed him we found him laying next to his dead mama so we had to save him he was the only one we could find I don't know what happened to his mama 😢
This doesn't actually help, even she literally said, "You really shouldn't feed wildlife." It desensitizes them to humans/ pets & can be a death sentence. Feeding inappropriate/ contaminated food can cause illness or even kill them. We transmit diseases/ illness to each other. Habituating them to people 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).

Raccoons can be very sweet and trusting animals.
I believe most "wild" animals can be this way if they are treated with respect.
Raccoons did not occur west of the Rockies prior to westward expansion. The raccoons followed the pioneers west because of the vittles.

I have 2 acres of dense woods that is my property in my back yard along with an additional 18 acres of forest owned by neighbors.
I HAVE A ROVING GANG OF RACCOONS who have lived in my backyard since I moved in around 2008 and I try not to feed them by hand or personally put out food but I do throw out my scraps and leftovers in my back yard off the porch and the gang of Raccoons help themselves to the “EVERY TUESDAY NIGHT, WEDNESDAY MORNING ALL INCLUSIVE ALL YOU CAN EAT TRASH CAN BUFFET” the neighborhood puts out.
I usually once a month have to help a youngster raccoon who can’t figure out how to get back out of the trash can. I’ll hear yelping or scratching when I come home from work after midnight and help a youngster out of my trash can.
my mouth dropped as soon as she said "Roxie has a litter every single year"
She should plant fruit bearing trees in that area for all seasons.
Commenting so that the woman in the vid can see this
This is so sweet n beautiful. Thank you so so so very much for this..
As sweet and adorable, as this may seem, it really truly is not a good idea
on so many levels
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.
@@robertsimon-kroppmanns7287 Except we do far more harm than good to nature, so the least we can do is feed its creatures. Might as well say not to feed homeless people.
Shove off. We constantly destroy nature and nonhumans. The least we can do is feed these animals, especially when they lose much of their natural food sources because of us.
@@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.
That is the CUTEST thing EVER !!! oh MY GOODNESS, lol she comes with her babies and then she meets your child, so adorable !!
Thank you for the video showing co existence with love, joy and kindness. This is so good for tbe soul instead of the aggression and violence we see so often.
Im so happy this relationship blossomed after previous friends of Roxy moved.
I love how Roxie’s daughter does the same thing with her own kids
Yep, perpetuating the dangerous cycle 😬
Too awesome.. my racoon has been bringing her brood every year for me to watch while she rests and eats.
They are adorable. Dodo is the best channel there is.. daily smiles..👍💛💛💛💛💛
Awesome 👍
So cute!!!
How beautiful to see this friendship develop and grow. Thank you for sharing this with us!
If you're friends with a raccoon, you'd better get it vaccinated against rabies.
The birds I feed did this to me! At first I wondered why one was feeding the other then it hit me 😮❤
I hope she are her babies NEVER GET RABIES
This made me happy
That’s the cutest garbage kitty I’ve ever seen!
letting your child walk barefoot where raccoons poop is wild lol
Having your child put their hand in a raccoons mouth is wild lol
I used to have a pet raccoon he was the best pet ever I love them his mama got killed so I had to bottle feed him we found him laying next to his dead mama so we had to save him he was the only one we could find I don't know what happened to his mama 😢
You're just lucky that it wasn't from Rabies 😬
Roxie is so sweet with your babygirl! I love that so much! ❤️
At this point , humans had messed up so much animal habitats that we NEED to help them now.
This doesn't actually help, even she literally said, "You really shouldn't feed wildlife." It desensitizes them to humans/ pets & can be a death sentence. Feeding inappropriate/ contaminated food can cause illness or even kill them. We transmit diseases/ illness to each other. Habituating them to people 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). This is why it's federally illegal in the USA.
