Had to rest some but she made it to the roof. She was smart enough to not try to climb back down (she would have likely lost her grip and fell to her death).

I liked the bottom video with the music.

Relieved she is safe!

so happy she made it, what an experience.

I find it interesting how so many people just assumed it was a male raccoon. Like a female raccoon would never attempt such a daring feat.

She got her own Twitter page here: https://twitter.com/hashtag/mprraccoon?src=hash

A few of the cute posts:

She got rescued

ate 2 cans of cat food and was released onto private land into a wooded area by Minn Wildlife Management personnel. There's video of her being released. She was reluctant to leave the trap at first, but once the technician shook and tipped the trap a little, out she came and ran off into the woods.

I heard on the radio they think she was on the building to eat the pigeon eggs. There are multiple nests in various places of the building (s). Raccoon's nature, when scared, is to climb higher. That first stick they poked at her sent her up, out of fear. She was on the building for at least 2-3 days.

I am glad she was fed.

where she was released. This morning, the local news said it was at a residential property. I imagine the property owners, having agreed to have the 'coon released there, will see to it that the critter has some food to eat.

We have raccoons that visit the area around our bird feeder every evening. We toss out some cheap dry cat food for them and for the crows that also come to our yard. We fed the local raccoons when we lived in California, too. They got pretty tame over time, and some would take food gently from my hand.

I never throw food in the trash can any more, just toss whatever's leftover into the yard away from the house and the crows and other critters clean it up, often within minutes or by the next morning at the latest.

The absolute funniest thing I've ever seen was a video of a raccoon bread line. A was person standing in their doorway and handing out slices of bread to a line of raccoons. Each raccoon came to the door, stood on its hind legs, took the slice of bread handed to it in its paws, left and the next raccoon came up, did the same and so on.

would do something similar. I handed out peanuts in the shell to them sometimes. They'd come up one at a time, politely take the peanut in their paws and then move off to eat it. Once one was finished, it would return to the back of the line for another one.

They'd also sometimes come into the house through the too-large cat door in the living room. When one would come in, it would head for the kitchen, polish off whatever dry cat food was in the bowl, and then politely leave back through the cat door. They'd notice us sitting in the living room, but paid no attention.

I fed all sorts of wild animals there. Blue Jays would fly down to my hand for peanuts. If we sat out on the patio, we'd have a constant stream of birds landing on the table looking for treats. Fun times.

feed chipmunks from her hand. One chipmunk would not leave until it had exactly 3 peanuts, one for each cheek and 1 held by its front teeth.
