Yep. Not very afraid of humans. Big pests in state campgrounds, picnic scraps left over. They commonly use their forepaws to hold stuff they are gnawing. Love eating human garbage, corn from your garden.

I’ve had two rounds of rabies vax thanks to raccoons eating the food locals leave out for feral cats.

Yeah they’re cute but RABIES is my first thought when I see them.

We had an endemic here for a dozen years until the neighbor went Norwegian Blue( lovely bird) and it took years to recover.

Now another neighbor is doing the same.

Peachy.
