Schleich Raccoon

These mammals live with their parents, their young, or in bachelor groups. They are nocturnal and have a highly developed sense of perception. Although they are colorblind and nearsighted, their other senses compensate for this. Raccoons can hear very quiet sounds, such as the digging noises of a worm underground. They have an excellent sense of touch underwater, as their paws are more flexible when wet. Additionally, they possess a keen sense of smell. These intelligent animals can figure out how to open locks and can remember this task for up to three years. Raccoons are survival artists – they eat almost anything, weigh about nine kilograms, and can live up to twenty years.
