Bassaricyon gabbii

Bassaricyon gabbii is the first dog raccoon discovered.

Bassaricyon gabbii feeds on a variety of fruits, vegetables, fish, frogs, mice, birds and insects. They curl up in their dens during the day and come out to look for food at night. They like to hunt fish, shrimps and insects near the water in streams and valleys. They also like to climb trees and use tree holes as their dens. The gestation period is 65 to 70 days, and 4 to 5 pups are born in spring. They have the habit of hibernating in cold northern regions.

Protect wild animals and eliminate game.

Maintaining ecological balance is everyone's responsibility!

The raccoon is found in Central and South America.

The fur color of the whole body is a mixture of gray and brown, with black eye spots on the face; there are multiple black and white rings on the tail; the shape of the incisors and molars are similar to those of bears.
