od so as to moisten it, before eating. The food is grasped in both hands after thefashion of the monkey, and shaken backwards and forwards in the water until soft.From this habit the raccoon derives its specific name Lotor the Washer, andits German appellation of the Washing bear. The racoon is omnivorous, and feeds heartily oi meat, fruit, and insects ; it isparticularly partial to the eggs and meat often found in the farmers larder. It is easily tamed, but is subject to outbursts of ill-temper and can never betrusted, even when domesticated,. The abode of the raccoon is generally in a hollow tree, and being sure of foothe climbs readily when pursued, into the highest branches. The female produces from four to eight young ones at a birth. The little animal is cunning in its evasion of traps or snares, and generally diesfrom a gunshot, or gives up his life to the dogs which accompany the coon hunterson their nocturnal jaunts. The skin is valued as a fur and is much used for trimmings.
