Hey i just wanna know are raccoons evil in some kind of way ?

A lot of things i thought were cute and nice like dolphines, ducks, cats (i saw one cat eat anothers new born), dogs (multiple cases of eating dead owners due to a variety of reasons starting from trying to wake em up to other malicious reasons), hamsters etc turned out to be wrong . Raccoons are the only thing i believe in anymore so give it to me straight are they as they seem ?

Edit : To reduce confusion and to not have to answer to duplicate comments NO I do not hate animals . I think they are all neat and they are what they are and I don't hold them up to humans standard but I'm not an animal person like cat people or dog people either . I hope this clears it up.

Capybaras. Animals aren't evil but if you're trying to think of a chill animal that does no wrong by human standards, it's capybaras.

Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

Funny I just saw this in the news today:

Honestly, Skunks, and maybe Possums. They are omnivores, so there is a certain amount of "will kill and eat other living things" but generally they have chill vibes and prefer to eat roots and garbage.

Raccoons aren't necessarily evil, but they are definitely chaotic little shit bastards.

A Raccoon would ask are humans evil for treating the world and nature as their privately owned land to do whatever they want without regards to other habitants.

Legend OP ,

Yeah most beings do including humans themselves.

One of my friends keeps chickens in a small coop surrounded by chicken wire. A while back some raccoons killed most of his chickens by pulling pieces of them through the small holes in the wire fence. A few years after the incident I was visiting my friend. While we were hanging out in the backyard I stepped on a dessicated chicken wing...

When they are in Kill Mode they are absolutely vicious. They'd reach through the fence and pull the chickens' heads off.
