A community portal about Raccoons with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Raccoons are nocturnal mammals in the genus Procyon of the Procyonidae family. Raccoons are unusual for their thumbs, which enable them to open many closed containers and doors. They are intelligent omnivores with a reputation for being clever and mischievous. Raccoons range from 50 to 100 cm in length and weigh between 4.5 and 16 kg. The raccoon's tail ranges from 20 to 40 cm in length. Male raccoons are generally larger than females.

According to the Greenbrier County Health Department, a raccoon discovered last Friday at the Methodist Church on Church Street in White Sulphur Springs tested positive for rabies by the State Hygienic Laboratory.
