EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases an adult female Common Raccoon (Procyon lotor) exhibiting quirky and playful behavior as she begs for food at the Ekaterinburg Zoo in the Urals region of Russia. With her distinctive banded tail curled over her back and her hind legs extended, she strikes a charming and somewhat comical pose. The Common Raccoon, a highly adaptable and intelligent mammal, is known for its dexterity and ability to use its opposable thumbs to manipulate objects. In the wild, they are omnivores, feeding on a diverse diet of fruits, nuts, insects, and small animals. However, in captivity, they are often fed by visitors, leading to this entertaining display of begging behavior. The history of raccoons in Russia is an interesting one, with the first recorded sighting in the late 1800s. Since then, they have become a popular attraction in Russian zoos, allowing visitors to observe their unique behaviors up close. This photograph not only highlights the intriguing nature of this fascinating mammal but also captures a moment of playful interaction between the raccoon and its human observers.
