A little background: this camera trapping project was supposed to be about California Ground Squirrels, which have infested the property of some friends.
I wanted to get footage showing how the ground squirrels react to a fake rattlesnake, which they are known to haze by boldly flagging their tails.
When I reviewed the clips several months later, I found the reactions of the raccoons to be even more amusing. So I made this movie first.
