#AtoZChallenge – Raccoon

The raccoon is a medium sized, North American mammal that can adapt readily to living conditions – whether in the wild or urban setting. This masked marauder is adept at getting lids off garbage cans and scavenging through the contents looking for tasty tidbits that we, humans, have tossed aside.

One of these furry bandits made the news this past week when it climbed up a construction crane in the city of Toronto. You can read about it at CTV news.
