Beautiful Raccoon Teamwork by a Mother and Her Babies

Occurrence Date: June 16, 2016
Location: Camdenton High School, Camdenton, Missouri, USA

"I am a Police Officer in Camdenton Missouri and was working security one evening at the local High School. I saw the mother raccoon on the wall with one of her babies as she was attempting to get her other baby over the wall. The mother raccoon leaned over the wall as the baby held onto her legs so she could reach out and grab the other baby and pull him up. Great example of a mothers love and teamwork! The raccoons have been staying in the wooded area behind the high school and several faculty members have seen the babies out playing a few times in the morning so they are definitely living close to the area."
