"Just previous to Christmas 1995, Miko, a cute little Disney raccoon, enchanted many Madrid children in the film Pocahontas. Many parents solved the Christmas gift problem by going out and buying a cute little furry kit raccoon. But raccoons live in packs, and as the kit reaches sexual maturity and finds himself in a cage deprived of social company, he is a liable to turn vicious and start biting the hand that feeds him. Then, for most caprice buyers, it is time to take the little fellow for a ride and turn him loose in the woods." (Quoted from article)
