If not friend, why friend shaped? 🦝💕 Baby raccoons are born blind, deaf, and completely dependent on their mothers for survival. As they grow it takes 4 to 6 weeks for them to develop their beloved mask. Raccoon kits start traveling with their mother when they are only 8 to 9 weeks old and tend to stay with her for up to 1 year before going off on their own. Fun fact: Other raccoons will defer to a mother raccoon if she has kits with her when food is available. Want to learn more?

Our public lands, habitats, clean air & water, and more are at risk! 🌳🦌🌊🦋 Congress will vote soon on a reconciliation bill that would cut back or even eliminate crucial federal environmental laws and programs. If passed, millions of acres of our public lands and waters could be sold off or devastated by oil, gas, and mining operations. Limits on harmful pollution would be lifted, while our reliance on the most polluting and costly sources of energy would increase. Take action with our friends at the National Wildlife Federation Action Fund and tell your representative to vote NO on the proposed House reconciliation bill! 📲 https://ow.ly/OBLx50VW0fp #Reconciliation #publiclands #wildlife #climatechange #cleanenergy (fb)
