Raccoon is a North American mammal that has a distinctive black mask around its eyes and striped tail. They are known for their mischievous and curious nature, and are opportunistic omnivores, feeding on a variety of food sources including fruits, nuts, insects, and small animals. They have a reputation for being adaptable, intelligent, and able to thrive in a range of environments. They are also sometimes kept as pets, although this practice is generally discouraged due to their wild nature and complex needs. #racoon #animalia #zoo #northamerica
