    Raccon

    Last week a neighbors' dogs' barked and scared a mother raccoon while carry her baby. I managed to carefully pick the baby up off street with paper towels. I put the baby underneath some bushes near where she left dropped him. The mother tried to come back but there was to much loud noise and people. She must of been a first time mother because she didn't come back. The next morning I checked to see if the baby had been picked up. The baby was still there and still alive. So I brought the baby to Project Wildlife and I know the the bay is in good hands. Here is a picture of the baby raccoon.

    The baby was so cute. The little baby noses he made were so darn cute. One thing I learned from Project Wildlife was don't raccoons with your hands. They carry a parasite that carries roundworm and is real nasty to humans. I really wanted to touch the baby so much.

    The baby was so very tiny and cute. As my sister said the cutest thing was all the little cute baby noises.

    It looks like it might have just been born a few days before, so tiny and cute.

    I think you are right on him being 2 days old.
