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.

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.

[@juniorr2646]

@@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.

[@howcansheslapcentral]

No she can't see the actual lock. The part where the latch is in the hole thingy

[@GrumpyGrebo]

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.

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.

[@svartulf5916]

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.

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.
