Raccoon

Raccoons by     Aditi, Cheryl, Eliza Raccoons are very interesting animals. Raccoons have a pointed snout and a black vertical mark on its forehead. It can range from 18-26 inches long. Raccoons have black patches around the eyes and a bushy black–ringed tail. They live in a variety of habitats including marshes, forests, prairies, cities and suburbs. They find easy spots to live in. Raccoons can almost eat anything including frogs, crayfish, birds, mice, and other small mammals. They eat fruits, nuts, plants, crops and garbage! Raccoons have enemies, too. Their enemies are owls, foxes, wolves and bobcats. Some people keep raccoons as pets! Raccoons are about the size of a small dog. Raccoons have seven rings on their tails. Raccoons are great !!!
