      Rest in peace poor guy.

        No, it’s not really a common problem. This poor guy just happened to go viral and become a posthumous celebrity. And yeah, that’s the racoon the poster was referencing!

    Wear PPE and wash thoroughly afterwards. Or call a professional who deals with wildlife to remove as they likely have experience safely handling dead animals.
