Raccoons

I've heard it said that it's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog. That principle works for cats, too and I can prove it with a raccoon who got the jump-scare of his life thanks to a feline who is convinced he's Chuck Norris.

You need to know that the raccoon is just fine. That's important to know because when you see the most famous raccoon encounter with chimps ever that happened at the St. Louis, Missouri zoo, you'll wonder.

It's been said that curiosity killed the cat. It doesn't help raccoons either. I know this because there's a new video share showing a trash panda that had to be rescued by a heroic Missouri police officer when he got a jar stuck on his head.

If you wanna get away, but not too far away from animals, you need to see this tiny Illinois place that's located inside of a rescue ranch. Animals of just about every variety are everywhere.

It's not officially a record yet, but it likely will be. 2 Missouri boys harvested what was accurately described as a "monster" 35 pound raccoon recently and they have the pic to prove it.

Raccoons have a way of getting themselves into difficult situations due to their desire to search trash for food. One Missouri postal worker frequently saves these thieving animals from themselves and just shared video of yet another he rescued from a dumpster.

Authorities found a disturbing situation involving wild animals in a Sandwich, Illinois home. 20 wild animals including several who were deceased have been removed and police are trying to determine if charges are justified.

A Missouri family set up a trail cam to keep track of wildlife traversing their property. Their newest video share looks something along the lines of a Missouri version of "Jungle Book" with raccoons, deer, foxes and possums.

Of all of natures animals, there is none more talented than a raccoon when it comes to what they're capable of to get to a food source. As exhibit A, I present to you a Midwestern raccoon who contorted himself like a gymnast so he could gain access to a bird feeder.

What would you consider a life career goal? If you're this Illinois woman, you've dreamed of rehabbing raccoons as a new video shows she is covered in tiny raccoon babies.
