It's #InternationalRaccoonAppreciationDay so let's appreciate this poor #raccoon (probably a Crab-eating raccoon, Procyon cancrivorus) who got mistaken for a #coati (a fellow procyonid) in a 1737/41 sketchbook by Emanuel Mendes Da Costa (1717-1791).

This poor raccoon got mislabeled as a coati in a c.1737-40 album by Emanuel Mendes Da Costa. Coatis are distant cousins in the Procyonidae family. (illustration of a raccoon specimen in side profile with handwritten notes)

And here, a raccoon appreciating life itself, contemplating the contemplative life.

Appreciate your closest raccoon, your raccoon friends, and the raccoons on your block!

Good afternoon to everyone, but especially to all the raccoons, for today is their special day!

This woodcut of a raccoon was printed in 1635 in 'Historia Naturae, Maxime Peregrinae' by Juan Eusebio Nieremberg.

"Some funny bric-a-braccoons in a tree attract their gaze; They stop and look at them a while and watch their funny ways." (panel from a comic strip featuring raccoon/bric-a-brac hybrids in a tree - head, tail, and legs of a raccoon, bodies are bric-a-brac) 16 April 1911 "1 - Oh, see the wicked Hatrackoon! He wants to catch some thing. He hides behind a great big tree, all ready for a spring." (panel from a comic strip featuring a hybrid creature with a raccoon head and hatrack body) 6 April 1913 "3 - He would not heed our warning, and the savage Hatrackoon, Has darted out upon him and will catch him very soon."

I forgot to prepare something for #InternationalRaccoonAppreciationDay so I just made a quick doodle for the occasion.

Remember to appreciate your local raccoon today, and don’t give them cotton candy with water nearby.

You can appreciate me as well :3
