Raccoons are not nearly as fat as they look. They have a heavy coat of fur that makes them look much larger. They do, however, put on a lot of weight during the summer so as to survive in winter when food is scarce.

Raccoons are sneaky and always find a way to go inside your house and make it their safe shelter. They are aggressive; it's better to contact animal control. If you're in Canada, call The Critter Guy they are the best solution to your raccoon problem.

This is an opinion, and completely unanswerable beside the idea that every person is born with likes and dislikes. Some people may consider raccoons cute.

Raccoons are curious animals. This curiosity means they hardly learn from their or other raccoon's mistakes.

It is a natural instinct for any creature - for the species to survive, they must breed. If every species on earth ceased to breed, they would all become extinct in just a few short decades.
