Borneo Raccoon

Procyon lotor

Description:

Just like the American Raccoon, grey brown fur, black mask with a long nose with black nose tip, feet like human hands,

Habitat:

Scavenger, travels and lives in burrows and under buildings,

Notes:

For some very odd reason a few nights back I seen something I could not believe my eyes, a Raccoon in Borneo... I been here 11 years and not once I seen one here, the closest to it be a civet cat....I took his picture quickly, it was about midnight and my chickens were making noise, i thought neighbors dogs, but nope a Raccoon 100%. I suspect he may been someones pet, or escaped from a personal zoo or collector... But you can see it.. theres no mistaking its a Raccoon.
