I'm first...a first

Hello Marisa - I haven't seen you on here before.
Cute photos but I don't like the look of those teeth.

Morning all.Sure hope a powerful zoom lens was used-hate to get too close to that fellow

Yes ... a good set of chompers.

Hello Anne,
I'm a shy sudoku/jigsaw fan. Usually get my fix, but don't often (rarely) post. Couldn't resit being first though! thanks for your welcome.

He looks so cute until you get down to his teeth!!!

They often carry rabies too. So he is not a guy you want to get near.

At least he's not snarling into the camera like last time!

Cute, but a little dangerous.

lol ladies...they are scavengers that are more like to do more damage to your garbage cans

What is it?

one happy raccoon

First glance at the mixed pieces I suspected it was him. I opened the door to see what George, my cat, was growling about, and at my feet not 12 inches away, looking up at me was a big racoon with his family of 4 behind him. George was on the railing above the family looking decidedly upset.

I remember suffering through the mating of two raccoons on my roof. Up there I couldn't get to them to chase them away. The male was at it all afternoon and female screeched all that time!

Oh Sharon. you definitly had it worse than me.

Possums do that too sharon, but it's generally inside the roof and then they urinate!!

I have a family of racoons and a family of possums. Also some feral cats. I put out water for them , but no food. By the way I live in the big city.

My friend raised two orphaned raccoons that she found when they were just days old. Their names were Rocky and Rachael, and they were a hoot! You really had to watch your possessions though, or they would make away with them. 4/9/08
