And For A Moment, Nothing Else Mattered. The Story Of #MPRaccoon
The saga began Tuesday morning when this little guy started scaling the UBS Tower in St. Paul Minnesota.
I don't know if I can watch this much longer. The #mprraccoon is scaling the UBS Tower. Now 12 stories up. pic.twitter.com/MaP35MLo9j

As he continued to scale the building, the people inside could only watch, windows in skyscrapers don’t open…

When he got 20 stories up, he stopped and took a break. The fire department was called but it was determined there was no clear safe way to rescue the raccoon.

Sometime after 2am, he finished the climb and made it to the roof where he was welcomed with some soft cat food and a humane trap.

People from all over the world watched the saga of one raccoon and it’s bad decision to climb a building. And we all cheered when it ended. The raccoon was being relocated by Wildlife Management.
Not the hero we deserve but the one we need right now. #MPRaccoon pic.twitter.com/bACwSnNPHW
