I had a co-worker that had property in Point Robert's. When his kids stopped playing in the yard a family of raccoons who had been watching came down from a tree and played with the kid's toys. He had a picture in his cubical of a mother raccoon pushing a wagon with her babies in it across the yard. lol

Aww the look in her eyes. So protective and worried. Raccoons are so adorable. Love them!! ❤️🦝

can we just appreciate how cute the raccoons are tho

Shes so content she just looks up at the humans like YES CAN I HELP YOU ?

I appreciate that full minute of mom and baby raccoons-- you obviously know what we're here for :)

Awwww... mom is so scared. Just think raccoons are adorable.

awwww, she's such a sweetie compared to so many wild animals

We had a similar situation with one of the basement window wells under our deck, although since the raccoons weren't really doing any damage to anything I didn't see an issue in letting them stay there. It is -30C around that time of year so I'm sure the warmth through the window combined with the few feet of snow on the deck providing insulation was nice for them. Plus they were cute as hell, I quite enjoyed watching them through the window. I would put my hand on the window and the little guys would do the same with their little hands.

A mama’s work is never done. This is why I have great respect for mama’s of all races and animals. Also a shoutout to all the good dads.

What a perfect home that was - more like a Bunker; I would've left them there and set-up with a chair and camera to observe Mom & kits. What a joy that would have been!

This is the Raccoon City PD. We have a search warrant, come out with your paws up!

Even though raccoons can be pesky and a nuisance sometimes, they are very smart animals and great fun if you Ever Raised one. I had one that was free to go where she pleased but she always stuck around. I would get home from work and call for her. Her name was baby. She would always come running and I would sit down on the lawn chair and she would crawl up and lay across my thigh as I scratched her back and she would purr loudly while suckling on my tummy. The first one I had would play hide and seek with me. I'd run out in the tall grass lay down and be quiet and he would sniff around and try to find me. when he finally came to the opening where I was laying he would rear up on his hind legs and then roll towards me hitting me with his front paws in a playful manner. There's so much more to animals if you only give them a chance and the respect they deserve

Aww that

Thank you for not hurting them and letting them go
