"As a raccoon spent much of Tuesday climbing a 25-story building in downtown St. Paul, Minn., the world watched, terrified that this suspense story would end in a tragic plummet. (It didn't.)
Suzanne MacDonald, a York University psychologist who studies urban raccoons, was similarly gripped, but she wasn’t worried. Why? Because raccoons — as their black masks might suggest — have “quite a few superpowers,” she explained not long after the drama ended Wednesday morning. The most obvious of those talents: a crack climbing ability."
How did the Minnesota raccoon scale that 25-story building? ‘Superpowers’ and ‘insatiable curiosity.’
