Adorable Video of Baby Raccoons Learning to Climb Is Making Everybody Smile originally appeared on PetHelpful.
If you could use a little sunshine in your day, this video that TikToker Emma Rudy shared in mid-August will do it. She spotted four baby raccoons learning how to climb on her back fence, and total cuteness ensued. We’re watching Emma’s video on repeat!
Turn your sound on so you can hear Emma cheering the little ones as they wobble, balance, and climb over the fence post obstacles, all without falling! The clip is only 19 seconds long, but it’s guaranteed to brighten your day.
We can’t get enough of all this baby raccoon cuteness! Were we the only ones cheering as they carefully learned to climb?
Of course, Emma’s video had been a favorite on social media lately because it’s not every day you get to watch baby raccoons learn to climb…especially not in your own backyard! We’re so glad that she was in the right place at the right time and shared the adorable video with us!
