I was car camping once and the racoons pulled the ice chest out from under the truck, opened the ice chest which was one of those closures that has a flap with a pin that goes through it, opened the carton of eggs, cracked each egg open, and ate the eggs without making any sort of mess. They put each egg shell back inside its egg carton spot. They’re very smart animals.

I saw a raccoon on my shed a few months ago and walked over to look at it. It hissed at me. When I didn’t respond to the hissing it started licking its paw like an embarrassed cat.
