	Nebraska Game and Parks Commission - Wildlife Species Guide - Raccoon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		The raccoon's closest relatives are ringtails and coatis from the Southwest.
		Raccoons are primarily forest inhabitants and most trees in Nebraska grow near water, so raccoons here are usually associated with rivers and streams (riparian areas).
		Raccoons have adapted well to life in modem-day Nebraska, and the most useful habitat management techniques for raccoons are to restore riparian habitat along streams and rivers and to save large den trees.

		The new reason scientists think raccoons wash their food is to press it and squash it to make sure there are no sharp bones or dangerous bits in the food.
		Because many of the raccoon’s natural habitat areas are being destroyed, it moves in closer to man, using the same habitat, and even eating the same foods as people.
		Raccoons are usually nocturnal (night animals), but in warm states, like Florida, they often come out during the day.

	Hiking the Devils Backbone Wilderness Trail, Mark Twain National Forest, Missouri, Ozarks
		While we started at the Raccoon Hollow designated trail head, Devils Backbone Wilderness area, we were only on the well worn trail for about 50 yards.
		We moved on down the ravine, more careful where we were stepping, and within minutes we broke out of Raccoon Hollow where it feeds the North Fork River (this was to be predicted as stinging nettles generally grow predominantly along a stream's banks).
		Upon our arrival at the mouth of Raccoon Hollow we discovered there was no level bank, no sandbar, and the terrain surrounding the shoreline was going to be difficult to hike.

		Raccoons are found throughout most of North America, occupying a wide variety of habitats from swamps to prairies, farms and cities.
		Raccoons foraged predominantly in forest edges and wetlands during the summer, but grasslands were used infrequently.
		If raccoons predate nests incidentally while foraging on other foods, nest predation on grassland birds may be reduced by maintaining or restoring large grassland tracts and separating nesting habitat from raccoon travel lanes and foraging areas.

		Raccoons are rather common near all permanent watercourses in the state and are found even up to the timberline in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains (Berghofer 1967b); they are also occasionally found in desert and grassland areas far from natural water.
		Raccoons are found in the desertscrub and riparian communities of the Grand Canyon 46.
		Raccoons in winter pelage need to raise their metabolic rate by 47% above basal to maintain endothermy at air temperatures of 0 degrees C. This winter coat lowers the animals critical-low temperature by 9-15 degrees C below their summer measurements (thus decreasing their energy expenses for thermo- regulation).
