Description
This baby raccoon in the back is doing his "Walk Like an Egyptian Dance", that or he is trying out to be a Hula Dancer! I don't know what they were doing out there, or what they were looking at, but they had a unique style while they were looking at it. More antics and faces to come.. I would say they are more fun than a barrel of Monkeys.. although I have never seen or been around a barrel of Monkeys.. It sounds fun, and probably is a lot of work in the end! hehe.
Raccoons are large mammals, most often seen dead on roadsides or at night going through garbage cans. They are shy creatures, active at night.
Raccoons are often thought to be close relatives of weasels, but they are actually more closely related to pandas.Their fur is grayish brown with black markings. Raccoons are easily identified by the black mask on the face and a bushy tail with four to six black rings.
Raccoons den in hollow trees, fissures in rocks, caves, or burrows (usually old fox, woodchuck or skunk burrow). They almost always live near water. They will also move into a muskrat house.Raccoons are omnivorous and eat almost anything, including: nuts, berries, acorns, leaves, grasshoppers, crickets, grubs, worms, dragonfly larvae, clams, wasps, salamanders, frogs, crayfish, snakes, turtles and their eggs, bird eggs and nestlings, fish, voles, and squirrels. They often eat garbage scraps and at times have been seen eating dead animals on the sides of roads.
