    We had one under identical circumstances. Ours was not aggressive, but it would playfully bite a little too hard. It really only liked my father who’d rescued it and me. It treated everyone else like something to climb or just ignored them. It grew into a forty pound behemoth. She eventually ran away from the farm and didn’t come back.

      my cousins raccoon also got very hefty. i think i just chalked it up to just how he likely just has so much easy access to food on the farm.

        Yeah, we fed ours baby cereal. She’d pack that stuff in like a tiny Japanese guy at a hot dog eating contest. We had to limit her intake.
