Raccoons Are Not Claustrophobic

Gates Wildlife technician Cassandra has a tight squeeze to gather the fourth baby raccoon in this litter. Watch as the mother raccoon stays close by to protect her babies.
Enjoy!

The wildlife camera ("trail cam"), is always appreciated. 5:07 I cringed, thinking that he might scrape his head on all the nails! 10:25 Cringing again because Cassandra's head is so close to those nails. 22:41 Mother raccoon looks back at the "baby box" after removing the babies from it: "I don't know what that is, but I don't like it."

    Very interesting that this mother opted to take them all out of the box at the same time, rather than one by one as in all (?) of the other videos I have seen, and as you noted. It was definitely not as safe for her babies as they were moving about and could have fallen. To what do you attribute that? Inexperience? Another great job for GWC that was not so simple.

    The raccoons probably had an alternate nest site ready to move into. While they don't plan for Gates Wildlife Control to evict them they have another site ready to move into if their primary nest site is threatened or made uninhabitable at any time by predators, natural forces like floods, or even infestation by fleas and mites.

    People do different things for sure some wait for them to leave home others want them out right away, gates wildlife seem to know the best time to get them out, I know a friend who Just waited and then fixed her roof. But animals esp raccoons r so smart and know where their secondary den site is. These people do a good job of making sure wild animals get to relocate,,,,,,,,,l these two seem to really care about animals as I know a company that would just kill them. Sometimes raccoons esp in Canada r considered pests.

    Some Raccoons don't automatically move out of their nesting den sites after their babies are fully grown and are able to take care of themselves!! The whole family may stay there together and live their for awhile (months), which could become a problem because they get pretty big and heavy when they're full grown racoons, and can ruin and damage your attic, or even fall through the roof into the house at some point!! They could also attract more wildlife to move in, and that could be treacherous for a home owner to deal with, and very expensive to have everything removed and patched up!! Trust and believe me, I caught 11 Racoons with the help from the city's animal control before, and it was a very tough job trying to get rid of them all!!😩
