THE WILD-MAN'S WILD FRIENDS VIDEO SERIES - EPISODE 2 - RACCOON
I know that some people wanted me to share a creature that wasn’t a reptile, so here you go!
Honestly, @papa-pepper enjoys just about every animal that he encounters and he appreciates the specific roles that each animal was designed to fulfill.
RACCOON
The Raccoon (Procyon lotor) is a very interesting mammal. These mostly nocturnal omnivores can easily be recognized due to their body shape, “mask” and ringed tail. Though they can be a nuisance for some people in certain situations, they are still an incredibly created animal that deserves our care and concern.
Though some people have actually kept Raccoons as pets, ultimately their home is in the wild, which is where this one lives. He was quite defensive, but eventually I got him to cooperate long enough to make a short educational video. The information shared is just head knowledge, with a brief refresher from this source

The video was awesome @papa-pepper! Did he have any other siblings nearby?
I do not know. He's the only little one we've seen.
Nevertheless, very awesome how you maneuvered him around to follow you. Additionally, thank you for your other videos shared! I have been watching some of your videos this afternoon and appreciate all the advice you have given.
Thank you so much for that. I do try to help and am glad that you appreciate my efforts.
Credit should be given where credit is due. I hope to bring more people to your content because it is very informative and just awesome content!
Wow. Thank you so much for your kind words.

Your post was mentioned in my hit parade in the following category:
How's life goin papa, o ya i look that u like music so much, do u know "Smule' app ? May i ve your ID. Let's rock it on. Sorry for talkin OOT
I bet there is not one day that is boring at the pepper ranch. Great video my friend. Be carefull. Has theee ever been on animal that you where scared to film or get close to?
Ummm.... not sure... I'll let you know.
I certainly understand that there is potential danger and some risks involved, but I am comfortable with that.
You are an interesting guy. I love the variety you come up with and the transparent expression of your self. Keep On!
Amazing how much he "cooperated." I had forgotten about them washing their food. They are interesting and adaptable creatures.
They "wash" their food to soften the pads of their "hands," so they can better understand what they're holding. This is so they can find food underwater while looking around for predators. :-)
Crikey, not something I've ever looked at closely before. I can't get over how long the toes are on that little fella. I always imagined them to have paws and be less articulate.
That and I spent the whole video expecting it to pounce at you!
I only found you today but I'm hooked. Keep it up good sir!
Omg! So adorable!! Love the post!! :) Upvoted and followed!! Have a great day! :)
I saw this info after ive read your post hope you inyou it.
