Early Bird Nature Books Series: Raccoons

With their black masks and ringed tails, raccoons are easy to spot! Found throughout America, these intelligent animals can live in almost any environment. Growing from tiny kits, raccoons survive long winters by eating lots of food in the fall to live on during the colder months. Coming out mostly at night, raccoons can eat anything--including food found in human's garbage and homes. Seen as pests by many people, these curious creatures' primary predators are humans.
