Cooper

Other Mammals | Procyon lotor | Raccoon

Arrived 2018 | Estimated Born 2016

Cooper was found as a kit and raised by a family. Being smart animals, raccoons are very susceptible to habituation, so Cooper could not return to the wild but is very sociable with our keepers. In warmer months, he loves hanging out in his tire swing and fishing for minnows that keepers put in the raccoon pool. In the cold, he’ll squish into his winter box.
