"Raccoons!"

I remember leaving Toronto once again. It was close to 5:00 AM, and I had my things ready outside. Suddenly, a swarm of young raccoons scurried across the street. They surprised me! I feared they would get very close and bug me.

It was my first time encountering young raccoons. Usually, I see bigger ones.

In terms of age, younger or “adolescent” raccoons look smaller. That morning, I saw raccoons in various sizes, but they were all roughly the same. I’ve seen raccoons with larger bodies, and some that looked rough.
