I photographed this Raccoon With Four Little Ones at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma.
A litter of two to five young is usually born. Litter size varies greatly depending on habitat. Larger litters are more likely in locations where there is a high risk of mortality, such as from hunting or harsh winters.
How I Got The Photo: Raccoon With Four Little Ones
This family of Raccoons were near Miner’s Cove, which is north of the Four Corners Intersection.
I was hand-holding my camera and lens while standing outside my pickup.
