Nishitsu has received several raccoon sighting reports before. There are four in the photo, but apparently there were about 10 of them. They seem to move around in mother-and-young groups.

By the way, last night, a mother raccoon and her young were spotted along the Tsutogawa River near Mukogawa Women’s University at Nishinomiya-Kitaguchi(formerly Hyogo College of Nutrition, Cooking and Confectionery), about 30 meters to the north. Raccoons seem to be good swimmers too.

They look incredibly cute, but they can be aggressive and may bite if you get close, so please be careful.
