I have raised dozens of orphaned raccoons for a wildlife rescue group over the years and do not recommend keeping them as pets. While still babies, they can be quite affectionate and gentle. However, as they mature, their temperament can be unpredictable and they can be vicious. Many states and municipalities prohibit the keeping of any native wildlife.
