I agree that nobody should ever take a raccoon or any other animal out of the wild to raise... although of course, if a teeny little baby is abandoned by its mother, you gotta be a good-doer and raise the poor little thing if you can!

Just wanted to add that ferrets are illegal in California under the pretense of being extremely dangerous and unpredictable... how true this is, I'm not sure. I've only come across one ferret and I thought it was very sweet.

XOXO,
