WARNING: Slightly graphic injury. Henry checked in early March 2015 with an abraded back injury that has since healed and a necrotic tail wound -- the lower portion has since fallen off shortly after this video was taken and is now healing. He's still very emaciated but has an extremely healthy appetite. These type of injuries that Henry has sustain are indicative of the typical fighting between males during the height of breeding season over the winter months. He's such an incredibly sweet youngster. There's some speculation if he might be possibly one of Fred's offspring as Henry shares a very similar friendly temperament. NOTE: Our rescue raccoons resides in a region where there hasn't been a case of raccoon rabies for over three decades which is tracked by the local public health department. We are fortunate to be able to observe and professional work with a variety of wildlife species since we reside next to a protected wildlife preserve. Our rescue raccoons lounge and play on our terrace as well as use it as a thoroughfare. No children nor pets are ever harmed, especially the wild animals captured in these videos. Please note that none of the raccoons are our pets thus please follow your local wildlife guidelines for the safety of humans and animal wildlife alike. © Weekly Whiskers All Rights Reserved 15-IPH6P
