We see a lot of baby raccoons, and even more big fat grown up raccoons, so have a playful adolescent raccoon today

ok so I read that raccoons have fairly poor eyesight? but they have very sensitive paws and their sensory cortex is like 2/3 used up on touch so that would explain why they tend to grope at stuff while staring ahead instead of looking at it or sniffing it.

I think pretty much all animals are opportunistic eaters. They have no certainty of getting food tomorrow, so better eat now that food is available.

Yep. Raccoons actually become very picky when they have a lot of food available and develop specific personal tastes.

PS: Example:



A friend of mine just lost several basil plants, thanks to raccoons. :buddy: She's gonna be so happy when they come back with a nice pizza!
