trash panda

Here's an animal who you may have never thought was friendly. A raccoon. Meet Larry, the friendliest raccoon you have ever seen, and her little baby - Baby Larry, because to the guy who became BFFs with them, all raccoons are named Larry. 

Larry (the big one, not Baby Larry), eats from a fork, eats corn like a human and occasionally lets her favorite human see her little baby. Her human, in return, does everything in his power to make her life better - from making her a raccoon house off the ground to help her hide from coyotes to filling a kid pool for her to allow her to cool down. So, basically, no matter what animal it is, if you show it love, it might just become your friend, even a raccoon. 

We can understand this raccoon on a deep level, there is a pile of grapes in front of you and you want them all, but there's someone asking for a grape. So, you kindly leave them one. But if they reach for that last grape that's currently in your hands, it's a bit rude.

Mr. Raccoon, we're with you on this one. He doesn't even seem to mind giving the human a grape, but it's the lack of manners the human has that the raccoon can't abide.

Gotta love those trash pandas! We certainly can never get enough, we'll go hunting in trash cans to find more hilarious trash panda memes if we have to!

Here's a strange encounter we never knew we needed until this very moment.. a red panda coming face-to-face with a raccoon, and then the red panda continues to wander freely around the zoo. 

Disney, are you watching this? This is the type of story the world wants to see. Or maybe not, given the trauma after 'The Fox And The Hound.'

We've definitely made the connection before that a red panda resembles a raccoon more than a panda itself, so to see the two come face-to-face with one another is probably the cutest thing we've seen in a while, no matter how short it is. 

Our hearts! This adorable trash panda is so cute and when politely asking for some treats, we can't help the giant goofy grin plastered across our faces! 

How can anyone resist that face asking for treats? The answer is simple. No one. This video may be short but it's sweet and to the point, and we'll take any raccoon moments we can get our hands on! 

Show some love to these little bandits who are constantly running away with our hearts in tow.
