A friend who lives on Portland Street in Dartmouth was attacked by a racoon
a couple of weeks ago. He heard a noise on his deck in the middle of the
night and went outside, barefoot, to see what had caused it. The racoon
attacked, bit and scratched. Our friend had to be treated with rabies
shots, tetanus, etc. They have a small copse of woods behind their house.
He didn't see any babies.
This seems to be a new level of boldness.

with me. I have the email describing his adventure archived.

Subject: [NatureNS] First outing for raccoon young
On the evening of July 5, my better half went out to have a smoke and I
heard a scream. I ran out to see what was happening and there was a raccoon
up on the deck. It was very brazen as they seem to be with no fear. It
eventually left the deck. I went out with the flashlight as I had heard
noises coming from the direction of our shed. Earlier in the day I had
heard sounds of raccoons fighting. These sounds were also coming from the
shed. I had also heard noises from within the shed. There is a hole in one
of the floorboards and I figured maybe a porcupine or something else had
gotten in. When I flashed the flashlight I could see ma raccoon and then
five sets of eyes peeking out from under the shed. Eventually five young
raccoons came out to join ma and off the truddled, which I assume was their
first time out with ma. They followed after her in a line after she reined
them in and scolded them.
