A Mother Protecting Her Baby
All mothers of all species protect their babies. Just like humans, animals of different species have paternal instincts, and they’re often protective of their babies. Mother hens are particularly known for their maternal instincts, raccoon mothers also have strong maternal instincts!

It looks like this raccoon is protecting her baby, and this photo is a sight for sore eyes! They just look so cute, I want to go over there and give them a hug. Of course, that’s probably not recommended – it looks like this mother raccoon is willing to do anything to protect her child.
