Raccoon handstands and walks on its front paws across garden in camera trap video

A wildlife camera trap has captured the funny moment a raccoon handstands and walks on its front paws across a garden.

Camera Trap Sue posted the video on X after her cameras picked up the handstand movement. The video, which has received 30,000 likes, shows the raccoon facing away from the camera before completing a handstand and walking on its front paws for around five seconds.

Writing on X, Camera Trap Sue said: “After researching online, it appears to be a thing they do. In over 15 years of constant camera trapping this is only the second time I have this behaviour recorded.”
