Little Bandit
I have always assumed that raccoons live just about everywhere. However, they are found in most of the United States except for parts of the Rocky Mountains, central Nevada, Utah and Arizona. They are also found in southern Canada and from Mexico to northern South America.
Photographed at Juniper Springs Wilderness Preserve, located in the Ocala National Forest, Florida.
They have one of the best canoe runs in Florida there for those who like it!
Also from Juniper Springs Wilderness Preserve

Adorable capture – I’m surprised he was running about during the day. We have three that visit our back door every evening, but only once it gets dark! Lovely shot!

They’re cute little guys, but they have thumbs! A GF of mine called them “macoons” when she was little. Love the portrait you took of this little one, it’s really good.
