Racoon? No way, it looks more like a cross between a panda and a de-striped tiger.

 

Red Panda...?

This is from the Pixar movie 'Turing Red' where a 13 year old girl finds herself transforming into a giant Red Panda due to a family curse.

Red Panda, Raccoon, I doubt the precise species matters given that face is the stuff of nightmares.  By week three of the summer holidays, Mummy will probably feel more like a grizzly bear anyway.

I went into Cash Converters today to try and raise some much needed cash. 
 

They gave me £5350 and didn't even take the gun off me.

It's a red panda.  They do look sort of like that.

That one thinks it’s a sloth.  It looks clinically depressed as well. 

A panda is not a bear, it's a member of the racoon family.

I had a visit today from these two chaps claiming to be from Woolly Baaah-stud Gardening offering to clear some weeds growing on the patio.  Fair shout, they were good to their word and didn't charge anything...

[edit] They were neither a Raccoon nor a Red Panda.  I did check.

Fetch the ranger, Skippy

(and while your there, a bottle of chilled Sauvignon Blanc as well)

 

There's quite a few of them in the woodlands around Chard Junction. AIUI, some escaped years ago from the place that Noel Edmonds used to run nearby and set up a breeding colony.

 

It's not unusual to see them from trains.

I must remember to put a few on my layout then, although they probably were not there in the 60's, but it is too much to resist.

you'll be pleased (or not) to know there have been wild wallabies in the UK since 1900 in various locations.  So if you really wanted to the excuse could be made...

I never said it was a bear, only that it looked as if it thought it was a sloth.
