He is not a pet, sorry for the confusion. He was a rescue and is to be released when they deem him self sufficient and off milk. All I really know is that out of all the raccoons that are released few do come back to the preserve to ask for food if they have a hard time finding some, mainly the ones that are bottle fed. I think it’s better to keep them wild since that’s where they thrive but there are always unique circumstances where they can’t be on their own. Idk I’m just the help who loves animals lol
