    First there was that hawk in the East Village, then those turtles at JFK and now a raccoon in a boutique in SoHo. Looks like nature wants to regain a foothold in NYC.

    these must be the elitist mad 'coons the Young Republicans warned us about.

    Where there is a city, there are raccoons. Toronto is overrun with them. It's like they PREFER urban living to life in the wild. I've had them open my sliding glass doors and walk right into the house.

    I know everyone is going green and getting back to nature, but how in the world did a raccoon invade the urban isle of Manhattan?

    @lil red: No idea! I've seen raccoons in Central Park, before, and I think I saw one in Madison Square Park, once. Anyway, I had a daydream and imagined him running away from the circus to work in fashion PR after reading too many Lauren Weisberger books, and that this was the result.

    @Foster Kamer: I do know for a fact that raccoon sightings in Brooklyn and Queens have increased steadily over the past year or so, and in some areas have become a serious problem.

    @lil red: They can swim. They can climb. They can creep. They can hide and come out at night. They can live in sewers and in trees. Perfect for NYC.

    @lil red: They float in on discarded mattresses and oil barrels that break off the Jersey shore. Either that or the raccoon tunnels beneath the Broadway Bridge from Riverdale.

    @Foster Kamer: Raccoons are trend setters. I once saw one with its head in a paper bag, and like a week later Shia Lebouf was seen sporting the same fashion.



    True story.

    I would pay good money to see a rich person get bitten by a raccoon in a fancy designer shop. What? They'll get rabies shots and be fine.

    @NinaHagen: Not a bad idea. Sorry, investors, we can't get all your money back, but would it make you feel better if we put the Madoffs in a glass room with angry raccoons and badgers?
