Mother Raccoon Decides Our Box Is Her New Home
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
This past April, Gates Wildlife was called out to investigate noise inside the ceiling of a bedroom. Upon investigation, we quickly determined the noise was that of baby raccoons crying. Keep watching to see how we removed the baby raccoons and what their mother did next!
Please give this video of thumbs up if you enjoyed it!
We GET THEM OUT and KEEP THEM OUT.

Once the babies are mobile that would be 4-5 babies using the roof as a latrine.

"Hmmmm, this box will do just fine untill I tear a hole into another attic."
That is a smart Mum. Your scent was on her babies (who were unharmed and in a sheltered warm den). Your scent was also on the den and blanket, so her deciding it was good showed her intelligence.🖤🇨🇦
Taking baby raccoons out of the ceiling is definitely a two-person job. This is quite a haul of cuties. ❤
What a good Mama! Thank you Gates for showing such compassion! All the very best, Susan
That footage of the baby stretching was adorable. When she was licking the top of the box, was she marking the territory of ‘her new den’? I’ve been binge watching your channel lately, your adventures are enjoyable to watch. Apart from not getting to hold all those cute baby raccoons, I am quite content to view from afar. Crawling around in all that insulation would have me retiring before the day was out. You guys deserve some sort of Lifetime Achievement Award for that alone.🥇Great job guys!
I take it this is not a frequent occurrence. Maybe a 1st time mom, who didn't plan well and thought heh this is not too shabby.😄 Very good mom in that seeing you the following day, she no longer felt safe for her babies. Thank you for the upload.
She looks like she’s smart,she saw the camera and walked off with babies! I hope she finds an awesome place to lay in! 😄
Dude where are your safety glasses???? I know you've said that they always have a "2nd home" for their babies. Do you think she stayed with them because the box was so warm? Thank you for all the work you do.

I think she was just a smart cookie. Saying to herself you put me here well thank for the new home and made it comfortable for her and her babies. I was wondering why they left( why not just stay. I would stay too if I was her.

@@sharonbrown6595 I think it's because once they cut the heat from the box she figured she would move them to her 2nd "home". They can get warm again and her babies can finish growing.

@@lisadebergerwheeler7306 y’a they may have cut the heat but I did notice the date and time stamp on the footage so she remained for a while before moving on with her babies. Probably since they were a bit older

I was thinking he needs better protective gear as well. There was a lot of fiberglass visible floating around in that air !!!
Wouldn't it be awesome if every home had these boxes installed? It sure would be helping with providing safe shelter for them and it would help to eliminate tearing out your walls.
Hahaha definitely wondered if that would happen sometime, those boxes are pretty spiffy!!
I'm obsessed with these videos. You guys are doing such a good job and the way you handle things is so humane. I only wish every wildlife removal service was like yours. 💜💜💜💜
Love how mom Raccoon kept checking the camera!
Working above your head is never fun! Great job getting them out!
I love that you all gave her a moment to recuperate and gather her thoughts! That was so kind and sweet of you❤️
I continue to be amazed and grateful that a wildlife rescue like Gates exists; it’s not the wildlife’s’ fault we are causing population pressures. Hats off to a compassionate job. We all have to figure out how to co-exist with grace & dignity.
She's precious 💕
I actually always wondered why they would not just stay in the warm box with their babies....this mom was pretty smart.
The little puppies are so cute.

Baby raccoons are called kits, or less commonly cubs as the females are called sows, and the males boars, just like the bears they are distantly related to.
Too right, I'd have moved in there if I was mama 😁
She was literally like: "Oh, this little box is fine." 😆 It's warm and protected from the weather, what else do they need? I guess she didn't plan ahead with another den site, maybe she's a first time mother?
Thanks so much!
I look forward for your videos.
It’s rough being a raccoon. Thanks for your kindness!
Hello dear friend.. My favorite channel ❤️ Really enjoyed watching Thanks for sharing this with us giving another a big Big like thumbs up 👍👍👍 See you again take care God bless 🙏🙏🕊️ Keep intouch ❤️🤗
I LOVE this company and those that call them. Most companies would probably just seal it up and let the "pests" starve. Beautiful people.
Aww so sweet and cute!!. What a good mamma! She's very careful with her babies!
GATES: The Amount of HARD WORK you do in these jobs is amazing and probably most people , like 🙃Me at one time!, have no idea!!😏 Thank You all so much for an incredible Work ethic and your Dedication to SAVE these Animals and Help the Home Owners!! You have our RESPECT!! 😊👍👍💕
I so love these videos The momma was so sweet, bless her and the little ones
Greetings from bronte village area of oakville this neighborhood looks familiar thanks for the presentation
excellent! 👍👍👍👍👍
that's a cool house you've got there, I'm staying rent free !
Awesome video. As always.
so cute )))
I've been watching your videos forever and I've always been surprised that the raccoons don't do this-just decide that the baby box works as their new den. I guess it is a pretty tight squeeze for all of them. But it does seem surprising they don't do this more often.
Love your videos, been a fan for some time, appreciate what you do. Just the music on this one was a bit too much is all. Thank you Gates Rescue 🙂
more previously recorded vids plz? keep em coming :)
I suspect that the mom raccoon instinctively knows that if it's easy for her to get in and out of that box so would predators so the choice was to stay with the kids overnight to get an escape plan going soon.
THE BEST ANIMAL RESCUE VIDEO SHOW I EVER SEEN I DO ENJOY WATCHING AND LEARNING HOW TO REMOVE WILDLIFE THE PROPER WAY 👏👏👏👏👏👏I GIVE THIS AWESOME COMPANY "10" STAR RATING. PALM BEACH FLORIDA ⛱️ 🇺🇸
- 8:32 She probably took them out because it had a heater && it is 100 degrees out so it was *WAYYY* too hot in there.
You and your daughter are super heroes to me!
This raccoon lady is so smart. I love this decision so much! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Canada has the most intelligent raccoons, and they have the best wildlife service too. The heating pad keeps the box extremely warm. I keep one at the foot of my bed in cold months so my feet are warm.
"Hmmmm, this box will do just fine untill I tear a hole into another attic."
Smart momma raccoon! Condo living in Toronto! 😂😍
You go Mama Raccoon 😂😂😂😂.
These animals cause a lot of damage it’s probably best to walk around your house checking for breaches in your structure.
Today is Dec 1, 2022--Canada somewhere I presume. Video stamp is December 4, 2022?-3 days into the future--or else in April 12? & it is 100 degrees F outside--38 deg C--what is it inside the box? Deeply painful eviction w babies unable to care for themselves. Best of wishes to poor Mom & babies. How about leaving the box in some corner of the yard for just a few more weeks? I feel her pain.
She decided to own that tiny house.
Looks like she found a new spot for a den. How did she get into the attic? Better find the opening and close it or she’ll be back next season.
Mama just thought it was getting late to move the kids so may as well stayed overnight 😆 waited until next morning
I guarantee it's right in that shade lol😅
Why did Google (youtube) remove your #3 video that you just posted?
On the wildlife camera footage, is it really 33 Celsius in April??
I wish I had raccoons where I live in Northern Alberta! Never seen one in real life. They are absolutely adorable, if we had them I would probably make a box just hoping some would move in 😅
if i aint got nowhere to go was a person lol
She looks exhausted
Hi where are you from? I have a problem with raccoon on the roof
No feed them hot dogs and treats like the Racoon Whispser been doing daily for 11 years!
Looks like the housing crisis in Ontario is affecting not only people but raccoons, too ;-)
Why aren't you wearing goggles when you saw into drywall?
Music is horrible for this video. Sorry
Why is there a box on your roof ?

That's Gate's 'Release Box'. They place it near the entrance hole and put the cubs in it so that the mother can find them easily when she retrns after they scared her away with their noise and presence. Raccoon mothers will always try to return to their cubs(very strong mothering instinct), and until she does, that box keeps them safe. (There's even a heating pad under the floor of it, so that they don't freeze in colder months.)
