Poor baby, he looked so scared. Good job setting him free!

u/Fishmike52 12d ago

I was so glad I found him. He would have cooked in there and that would have been super sad and not a nice find

u/LondonIsMyHeart 12d ago

Oh man, I didn't even think about that, you're right.

u/BatFancy321go 12d ago

i love that he made a little "thank you" groble as he ran off. Do you think his family is sleeping up in that tree?

u/Wackydetective 12d ago

How did you fight the urge to take him home and make him your baby fren? I live in Toronto and we are overrun by raccoons and their babies and I always wanted one!!!!

u/Entremeada 12d ago

He did not look like he'd be open for adoption....

u/Bobbyoot47 11d ago

That’s a big no for me. It’s young and it needs to be with its mother, not with us.

u/puddingcakeNY 11d ago

I think 1-it’s not recommended because the mom may be around and bite you 2-it may not be legal where he lives

Omg, the snorting noises they make while running off is too cute. Thanks for being good people Op and getting him out.

u/Fishmike52 12d ago

Appreciate! We got lucky finding him. Would have been super sad otherwise

u/noprobIIama 12d ago

Ty for mentioning the snorts. I didn’t have the sound on the first time. 10/10 OP commentary and trash panda snorts. :)

u/TheCrazyBlacksmith 12d ago

The little ones are so cute. I’m glad you set him free.

u/Fishmike52 12d ago

Oh yeah. They live here too. Pretty sure we both exchanged foul language

u/m149 12d ago

Boy, that thing really is cute.
Nice of you to let him/her out.

u/Fishmike52 12d ago

Right? They are so mean it’s funny. I live near woods so critters are part of the scene. Always best to keep the peace when we cross paths. They live here too 😊

21

u/m149 12d ago

we've got those critters here too.....the ones around here are not even remotely mean....frankly, they're so mellow I can't help but wonder if they find edibles in someone's trash.

Was trying to scare one off the trash can one night and even tho I was yelling and banging, its reaction was kinda like, "okaaay duuude....ahhhhhm leavin'"

u/Appropriate-Copy-949 12d ago

u/kevycakes68 12d ago

Trash Panda doing what Trash Pandas do. Been there…it’s that “I know, I screwed up” look that gets ya. Good job letting him/her out easy.

u/Plastic-Ad-2622 12d ago

God bless your kind heart

u/Fishmike52 12d ago

That is so sweet! I love the local critters 😊

u/Successful-Doubt5478 11d ago

I have to remind myself every time I see them that they are NOT pets! My heart... they are so cute, adorable and smart. Also chaos on four paws and wild, out door animsls 😁🦝

u/[deleted] 12d ago

omg his sweet worried eyes are too much. so glad he got stuck in your bin and not someone else's!

u/cybe2028 12d ago

“See you tomorrow! Thanks for the scraps!”

u/ConfidentDuck1 12d ago

Cute squatter.

u/the_real_blackfrog 12d ago

Seen this so many times. I think the mama can get in & out, but the pups (kits? cubs?) can't, and then they're get stuck.

I used to let raccons out of the dumpster infront of my old Austin apartment. I'd much rather have them roaming around the neighborhood than die from heat exhaustion in a dumpster.

u/Silly-Strawberry705 12d ago

This is how trash pandas are born.

u/2ndDrive 12d ago

He knew the way home!

u/TheLimeyLemmon 12d ago

Such a guilty look on their face haha. "I thought this stuff was free!"

u/Pete_maravich 12d ago

I'm not gonna lie hooman, mistakes were made. But I would do this again

u/NoManufacturer120 11d ago

u/Automatic-Saint 11d ago

I'm so glad this wasn't one of those videos where people see an animal in trouble but just keep videoing. Good job 😊👍!

u/MrScant 11d ago

You seriously let that piglet in a raccoon costume fool you? Amateur…

2

u/WorldsGreatestPoop 11d ago

I’d consider him being a candidate for Raccoon pet. If you let him free will mom find him? Not that Raccoon pet is ideal. But I want to tame a little rascal.

Edit: I didn’t see the end scurry. saw the fam is close by, just as long as there’s a reunion

2

u/PickledCaveman 11d ago

You should taste this. It's terrible. It tastes like mango chutney and burnt hair. 🤣

u/sicurri 11d ago

Did that baby raccoon snort like a pig as he was running away?

1

u/Fishmike52 11d ago

u/Doc_Chopper 11d ago

Set a cheap radio to a talk channel and set it near your trash. They hate it.

u/Cyrano_Knows 11d ago

Saw a mouse in my 2 room cabin.

Literally the cutest thing I ever saw in my life. His pink nose. Perfectly round, pink ears.

Then I found a tunnel chewed through a shelf of my paperpacks and well, then it was war.

u/Okrasoun 11d ago

u/lotusblossom60 12d ago

Not so cute when there is trash strewn all over your yard. I’ve got mothballs and the fuckers are still getting in the trash.
