Once upon a time in ancient times, the raccoon was a man. This cunning, roguish deceiver and kleptomaniac somehow angered the Great Spirit so that he rashly turned him into a raccoon. But he softened his anger, returning the animal its tenacious and dexterous human hands.

I must say that the Indians never eat raccoons, perhaps for fear that they will not be transferred to the not very good moral qualities of the raccoon. For a proud and honest Indian, this would be highly undesirable.

• Don't wake up dashing while it's quiet. A sleeping raccoon is sacred. Remember that alone with yourself - the raccoon is sleeping.

• It is even possible to resist the invasion of armies, but it is impossible to resist the invasion of raccoons.
• The cat will always fall on four legs. The raccoon will always fall on something soft. For example, on the second raccoon.
• At the wall, the raccoon will not fall asleep. Knees do not rest, just not enough freedom.
• By the way, about the knees. The raccoon's leg joints are twisted in all directions. This allows him to do incredible tricks in the trees, as well as descend from them upside down.
• At the same time, on the ground, he clumsily shuffles and hunches over, twisting his legs now and then.

• One of the unsolved mysteries of life - why does the raccoon giggle?
• Speaking of giggle. The animal is capable of making any type of sounds for communication - rumbling, chirping, squealing. But with age, this passes, and they communicate less and less often.
• It is impossible to remake a raccoon - it has its own wisdom. But he can be outwitted.

• "The raccoon is his own egregor" - the words are incomprehensible, but beautiful.
• The adequacy of the raccoon may mean that the animal is sick.

“ ... Every year we have a rest by the sea with tents, in the Gelendzhik region. And raccoons steal everything that can be eaten at night.

They can bite through a can of condensed milk / stew and drink the contents, they can roll the cans off the cliff so that they burst, they can simply unscrew the lid. They take out badly lying candy from candy wrappers, and fold candy wrappers neatly. Since we often hung food to prevent raccoons from getting to it, they stood on each other's shoulders to get to the packages. No wonder in America they are called "kings of trash cans."

In the spring, when they are especially hungry, they can come to the parking lot and brazenly take food straight from their hands. A friend of mine was busy pulling the bowler hat one morning: a man on himself - a raccoon on himself.

Raccoons are weakly afraid of people. One of their most powerful pranks was a stolen passport. And this year they managed to steal the phone, remove the lock and call. "

A raccoon's feet contain an incredible amount of receptors. And in water, this tactility increases, and if a raccoon stays in a cold reservoir for a long time, then this will not affect his sensations.

If you are irritable and faint of heart, it is better to give up the idea of having a raccoon at home. The raccoon will never learn to distinguish between "can" and "must not" His fingers will quickly put things in order in bedside tables, boxes, cosmetic bags and bags. Open the refrigerator? As easy as pie! And if they learn to turn on the water tap, then you will not see peace.

You may prefer the softer forms of the raccoon - the more masculine badger. But this is a completely different story.
