Tricking my pet raccoons with cotton candy
We all know what happens when you put cotton candy in water: it disappears! But Piper and Cheeto the raccoons don't know that, so let's have a little fun! We tricked Piper & Cheeto by giving them cotton candy and a bowl of water. As raccoons, they could not resist putting their snack in the water.
Watch their reactions as they realize the cotton candy disappeared!

ELEMAYOOO
coontube lol ;D
@@CenKyne I love that 🤣🤣😂
All I can imagine is half the videos are racoons unboxing shit, making let's plays and like 5 percent of the videos are humans getting tricked into doing stupid shit
I like how they eventually stopped trying to "clean" the cotton candy and just outright ate it while resisting the urge to put it in the bowl.
nice pfp
@@Theraisinkiller no u
@@danielawesome36 😳😳😳
Nice pfp's in thie comment thread
Fun fact: when they put food into water, it's not to clean it. It's because they work out whether something is edible or not by feeling it with their extremely sensitive hands. And the water actually helps them feel the food better.
Can we appreciate just how careful they’re being to not spill the water?
very delicate and polite trash panda
@@bloodlove93trash panda lmao
Its actually really impressive
“Can we apprec…” 💥🔫
That's what happens to me every time I try to put a little money in savings.
Lol good one
Especially with inflation the way it is.
Thats why you break free form the central bank scam and get into crypto just make sure it a crypto from the top 50 on coin market cap
Have you tried to put it into AMC?
Tat wat happens to me when my mom know i have money
You’re laughing. This raccoon just dissolved his cotton candy six times in a row without figuring out what’s happening and you’re laughing.
It was to see if they could problem-solve! No harm in giggling at their reaction that it kept disappearing. 😁
*insert Skeletor cackle*
@@JadenNeko perfect time to put that laugh
It is a twisted joke, but it's funny to see them frantically swishing the water around and be like wtf? Looking up at owner in disbelief and then going back and forth
He was quoting joker
This has the same troll parent energy as throwing snowballs for a fetch-happy labrador.
Can’t you tell that they are hygienic creatures and have perfect table manner? They wash their food before eating 😂😍
They aren't washing it actually. They put their food in water to get a better feel of it.
In germany we call them wash bears
In america we call them trash robbers
In Australia they don’t exist
My family calls them trash pandas (their real nickname lol)
The learning curve for these guys is a flat line at zero.
Think i read somewhere that the dunking is like robotic instinct at this point, they are completely slaves to the dunk lol
@@BoringFlightVids It just doesn't feel right if there is no dunk...
To be fair, dissolving is kind of like magic and way above the understanding of an animal. He was just like "Is dry, needs water... oh no! It vanished! :O"
Pretty sure they do it to soften food and help keep hydrated
@@MrBiosh0ck i am pretty certain it is because they wash their food
Water: * dissolves cotton candy * Raccoon: “and I took that personally”
Indeed, aw, poor wretched cutie.
Same🤣
Lol
Where is it ??? Where??? But i put that here , oh where is it 🤔
@@charlesdarkon That sounds like myself:-)!
I can tell Piper is the clumsy one bcs when the cotton dissolved he looks around to search it like “where did i put it, i swear it was right in front of me jn” 🤣😂❤️
😂😂😂 she is way more clumsy than cheeto
Yeah being clumsy and forgetful are the same thing... the IQ of the people making comments in these kind of videos takes the average down to room temperature.
@@thomgizziz Being unable to draw a connection between being clumsy and thinking you could have dropped something. I believe you were saying something about intelligence?
Why did people dislike this, they came for a racoon being tricked with cotton candy And thats exactly what they got.
They wanted to know where their own candy went
Some of you dont realize the level of confusion going through their heads lmao. They usually hold their food in water to help their paws better feel what it is they are eating. It helps them get more information. They take the cotton candy intending to get information about it but it disappears. Imagine getting a burger you didn't ask for in the bag, and it just disappears as soon as you unwrap it to see what kind it is.
Amazing analogy
I thought it was just instinct to wash their food or help hydrate dry food?

This reminds me of the book Rascal by Sterling North published in 1963. I checked it out of the school library and read it when I was in 6th grade. I couldn't stop laughing when Rascal would take a sugar cube to wash off first, but each time they just kept disappearing. I recall laughing hysterically and even reading that part to my parents. Classic! Hope kids are given that book to read still.😊
I read it (as a child in Germany), I think.
I love how they keep feeling around the bowl, like "where is it? It was JUST HERE!"
This is crazy how this video shows how how adorable these guys really are but when you're taking out the trash at 2am in the dark they look like the gremlins
Oh they'll kick your ass. I was taking out the trash one time and those bastards leg swept me and gouged my left eye while one of them took my car keys.

Exactly what was on my mind hahaha soo cute

@@hinaciix same lol
@@hinaciix me too😂😂😂
It even tried looking under the bowl 😂😂😂 Also raccoons are very smart in other ways. My dad when he was very young they had two pet raccoons and they trained themselves to use the toilet, wipe, and flush it…Which is………very interesting. Anyways raccoons are ADORABLE.
We used to pull this same trick with the wild raccoons around my base, back in the service. We'd give them sugar cubes after it rained and watch them try to wash them in the rain puddles. Humans can be VERY devious creatures sometimes.
I love when they reach for or grab at things without looking...
Also describes my bed game.
Raccoons are little babies
If they can’t see what they’re grabbing no one can see what they’re grabbing 😂😂😂😂
YES!
Yeah it’s like their saying “Where are my glasses!?”
These animals are having their entire understanding of reality shattered and we're just giggling. Humans are clearly evil.
This, but unironically.
Right😈😂
I know XD
We know
We do a little trolling
That's the, " I just lost my keys" level of searching. Pure hysteria!😂😂
Fun fact: raccoon in French is Raton laveur because laveur means washer so basically some French person saw a raccoon washing their food and went “yes”
True fact: no raccoon has ever gotten better than a D in chemistry.
Raccoons prefer more "hands on" jobs ;3
At least they want to wash their hands and food.. i know human beings who are still to dumb for it
@@sheoulgra take a joke?
This is actually not true. The raccoon behind my school helped me get an A on my chemistry final in highschool. So I know he at least had above a B.
@@anoob09 could you explain where the joke/pun is as I'm not getting it 😅
I love watching them loose the cotton candy to the water and yet still bring their lil hands to their mouth and chew on nothing but hopes and dreams
A sadist :^(
This one hurt lol.
so evil😭😭
Lol
I wonder if theyre tasting the water with their hands "Well the fluffy stuff is gone but now we have tasty water"
I feel so bad for the little fella. This is like when parents wrap up a Nintendo console box for Christmas but inside is only books or something. It's just mean. Animals have emotions, too. ☹️ He's looks so sweet and lovable. I could never prank him like that. He looked so heartbroken every time it disappeared.
"Racoon! DID YOU PUT YOUR COTTON CANDY INTO THE GOBLET OF WATER!?" Mother asked calmly.
I just imagine the words “wtf” being on replay in their little noggins and the cheerful music makes it so much better😂😂
You know this is basicaly animal abuse?

Awww, the way he was eating the cotton candy and then looking for it in the water is so adorable. Racoons are smart!
Bless their sweet innocent hearts.
What's interesting is that the raccoons in the zoo figured it out after two or three tries whereas these reasons kept trying. Might be that the zoo stimulates problem solving similar to what a raccoon would experience in wilderness while a cozy home encourages looking cute for more free food...
Cotton candy: **Disappears in water** Raccoons: *"What is this witchcraft?"*
Just like Professor Quirrel
True scientific thinking. 1. Notice something strange. 2. Repeat circumstances to establish pattern. 3. Guess what is causing the phenomenon. 4. Test hypothesis. 5. Repeat experiment and document result. 6. Publish paper and await repeated experiments and results from peers. These racoons are closer to doctoral thesis than I ever have been.
Interesting that they have very tactile sensation on their claws of the sugar contracting and it looks like it is tied to a response to nibble at it - probably some other fibrous material did the same thing in one of their evolutionary habitats. No thoughts present when it just disappears though lol
i remember seeing a video like this a few years ago and i cried. just because someone gave the poor raccoon a piece of cotton candy and he was so excited. he wanted it to be perfect so he brought it to the river to clean it. as it disappeared he was scrambling to find it and he looked so perplexed. saddest shit i’ve ever seen.
When you watch the full clip of that one eventually the raccoon learns not to put it in the water
He got more after and learnt to not put it in water
This is what happened to u as a child when ur mom said that she “could hold on to your birthday money for u”
Yep, that always disappeared as if by magic! 💨✨🥲
Yeah and until now she still does that :)
I never had that happen to me- I get 15$ a week for allowance.
I learned at a young age that the only person I could trust with my money was Mister Lockbox
Jesus ye had awful parents 🤣
Are he not going to talk about how cute he was when he was trying to lick the cotton candy off the table and his little nose bent a little
Back when I was a kid in the 1950s, we had a zoo in our city, and we used to go to it frequently. They had raccoons that lived in a circular habitat with the outside ring being their play area. Well, there was just a fence between the raccoons and the people, so we were able to reach over and give them popcorn, or peanuts, or cotton candy. Well it was just so funny when we gave them the cotton candy and they would run over to their water source which was a little flowing fountain. It just cracked us up to see them run over and wash the cotton candy only to have it disappear in their hands, and then come back for more. Kids can be really cruel. I think back on that now, and I realize what a rotten trick to pull on them. I'm 76 and I still get a little guilt pang whenever I think about that.
I'm laughing so hard but the whole time I'm just going "Oh no, that poor baby, it's just looking and looking like 'I just HAD IT!?' and it doesn't know what happened!"
Seeing this raccoon so utterly confused at the fact his Cotten candy just *D I S I N T I G R A T E D* is amazing XD

Why is no one talking about how sticky his hands probably are
I WAS THINKING THAT LOL
Right!
Because he washes them more than most people in my life.
Oh yes deals for Dona Boulevard are in the washer Sansa I asked to do is put down but I want to watch the van van oh yes to do is put down a bowl and it will wash his hands off all they have to do is put down another bowl of water and the raccoon will wash his hands

Raccoons are the little adorable cats that shove your glasses off the table when you’re not looking…. So mischievous, yet so cute!
Japanese for raccoon is “Araiguma,” which means washing bear because they wash their food. Edit: Wow so many likes. I've learned from the replies that a lot of other countries call them "wash bears" too. Interesting! And yeah raccoons and tanukis are different species. A tanuki is more brownish in colour and don't have striped tails.
I thought it was tanuki
@@canarialurker5976 a tanuki is an entirely different animal
And in German it's "Waschbär", which you can maybe guess the meaning of lol.
w a s h i n g b e a r
@@protatochip The question is why both Japanese and Germans think raccoons are bears. "It has hair, it's a bear"?
The raccoon lookd so offended at the waters utter AUDACITY to take THEIR cotton candy.
Duncan Trussell described racoons washing cotton candy as a perfect metaphor for the human condition. Whatever we try to hold that we think will make us happy dissolves as soon as we get it. It illustrates the futility of seeking happiness from our surroundings.
The way piper dunked it under water both times made me and my twin laugh!😂😂😂😅😅
I think Cheeto may be smarter than Piper! Cheeto kiiiiinda learned not to fully submerge the cotton candy in the water!
I think he just loves cotton candy too much to allow his brain to realize what Piper did:-)
I thought raccoons were smart problem solvers.
@@roems6396 Oh, please, don't underestimate them. Even a small child who hasn't learned about the solubility of any substance would be utterly puzzled to see it vanish in the water!

It’s so cute how they try cleaning it in the water and it just disappears and then try finding it
Little known fact: raccoons don’t actually put it in water to wash it, raccoons wet their food to gather more sensory information about it from nerve endings in their paws. Moistening food enhances a raccoon's understanding of what it is eating.

Didn't work here lol
@@joethewolf3750 you dont have to rub it in 🤣🤣🤣
No, raccoons put the food in water because they don’t have salivary glands, they don’t produce saliva so they wet the food not to choke

Trash panda for the win wooooo! Kidding they are so cute. My late friend used to have one. It loved coffee. Always had to find our cup and put his hands in it. We had to bring our cups everywhere we went to prevent it. But if you know raccoons. Lets just say she gave him a cooled down one when we poured ours. Gave him a tiny mug. He was happy. Loved dog food. She had two small dogs that treated him like family. All three of them used to sleep togeher in the living room. It was an odd but good relationship. Fun times. I love all animals.....including us belligerent creatures. . . Sometimes . . .

Satan : "I like what you did there man, I'm gonna give a front row seat"
This is sweetly sad. Though I did find myself chuckling throughout.
This is why I always argue with some people who think Raccoons are "Dirty disgusting animals." They are nowhere near that. Even in the wild, they are clean animals. They keep their burrows clean, have designated "bathroom" spots, store food in cool dry places if available, and most off all they wash their paws and food before eating it.
They're just dangerous when wild.
?????
Hehehehehe washing their food
Actually, they don't wash their hand/food They dip the food in water with their hands, so that their hands get wet & they can sense what they're about to eat more clearly But ends up cleaning their hands & food.. Soo yeh
@@florentinovasquez3801 They are dangerous when you threaten them or their babies or they are competeing with others for food. If there is enough to share and there's no threat to their safety they are different. I have been feeding wild raccoons for years. They are actually very nice creatures. One I even trust to let inside my house each night. She eats and drinks, explores a little and then goes home. That's it. She lets me pet her, sit down beside her, touch her babies. I've never had a moment of aggression from her. We're good friends.
It breaks my heart the way she searches for the cotton candy in the bowl 😭
Thank you, this wholesome silliness brought a very much needed smile to my face.

I felt the same but only because she is giving them so much sugar
@@verameertens839 is it bad for them?
@@verameertens839 I mean fruit already has a stupid amount of natural sugars in it, and raccoons normally eat a lot of native fruits if they can reach them. Granted it’s the other ingredients that are probably more harmful, but the amount they got won’t hurt them in the long run, they might puke later, but that’s better then them getting ill.
I bet if you were to do a breeding program based on paring up the most intelligent individuals, then within a few generations you could probably have something on par with a dolphin. Edit: that’s scary to think about. A man in his 20s could see 8+ generations of raccoons. By the time he died he could have single handedly replaced humans at the top of the pyramid
I like how he tastes it to confirm it’s there
I love how Cheeto is so excited for cotton candy he puts it in his mouth before washing it
