In The Netherlands, raccoons are called: wasberen.  "Was", in Dutch, is the first person indicative of the verb, "wassen", (to wash).  Beren is the plural of the noun, "beer", bears. ("beer" is pronounced the same as in English - bear.)  So, this means raccoons are "washing bears." This is because they look like little bears that often  wash their food with their hands. It's really a charming fantastic translation.

The German is Waschbär. This also means wash and bear.

The French is raton laveur. "laveur" means "washer."

Some think that thievery is in raccoons gene. A raccoon can be the cat food little thief. They can walk perfectly on two legs (when they are holding something in their hands). They are like little robbers. Some raccoons are just friendly gentle fur balls that love to cuddle, hug and give kisses.
