in the days before cameras this would've become a legendary local cryptid. in the 21st century we're calling it Jimothy
A unique raccoon was spotted in Seattle A raccoon named Jimothy with a rare short spine syndrome was roaming the streets, stealing food from trash cans and frightening locals with his unusual appearance. At first, residents were startled by the strange-looking animal, but he later became a local celebrity, with people even making memes and drawings of him.

Jimothy is just a tiny, furry reminder that folklore is really just history without a high-speed internet connection.

I think Jimothy can help solve Seattle’s homeless encampment issue, for starters. I’m not sure how, but I’m confident he can. Unlike the Mothman, he’s not a chthonic figure, which brings disasters, but a light worker. 😌
