I disagree. I just watched a raccoon attack a squirrels nest in tree, and eat the babies and the mom or dad (not sure). The only survivors was: one adult, one or two baby squirrel. Was horrible. I saw the babies drop out of the nest and the hit the ground as the adult frantically tried to save them. Then the raccoon just sat in the nest for 3 hours and chomped away, tearing off the fur and flesh as he ate them. The adult and one baby (teenager i guess) tried to attack, but it was in vain. Then, the fat ass raccoon, threw the dead carcass out of the nest and walked away.
