- In the natural world, raccoon mothers are known for their unwavering dedication and care for their young. However, there are times when tragedy strikes, and a mother raccoon is unable to return to her den due to unfortunate circumstances.
Whether it be a tragic encounter with a vehicle on busy roads or getting illegally trapped by a homeowner or another company, these situations can separate a mother raccoon from her helpless offspring, leaving them vulnerable and in need of urgent assistance.
Witness the heartwarming moments as Gates Wildlife expertly introduced the orphaned raccoons to a caring and nurturing family of raccoons who opened their hearts and embraced the newcomers as their own.
Through careful monitoring and guidance, the Gates Wildlife team ensured a smooth integration, allowing the baby raccoons to be accepted by their new mother and thrive in their environment.
Join us on this captivating journey filled with adorable antics, as these tiny raccoons adapt to their new family dynamics, forge strong bonds, and become a part of a loving raccoon community.

Sad the rough life raccoons have because people don’t understand them or respect them. Thanks for shining a positive light on them
Yes same with the opossum.
Take care
Ontario and all other provinces have strict laws protecting racoons, as well as other wildlife, and in urban areas. Almost everyone is in agreement that they are not to be mistreated by anyone. Most folks are quite fond of them. It's almost an unspoken agreement that we can try to secure our garbage containers from them (good luck with that challenge) but most view cleaning up the mess afterwards the same way they do shovelling snow: it's a part of being a Canadian. I would not be surprised if it was a part of the new citizen initiation process. People keep a close eye on those they suspect will try to save money by doing anything awful to them. Removing them from ones home is not awfulness. My father used to curse the damage and mess they made to our housein the 60s and 70s but whenever we had Kentucky Fried Chicken for dinner you know who enjoyed the leftovers. so, this is not a recent development.Ted Nugent (google and be horrified) on the other hand, has a large rural property but gets off on killing them with firearms. Thankfully, he does not represent most Americans.
@@Alsatiagent Ted nugent is a disgusting vile creature who needs to expire sooner than later. Not only a self proclaimed pedophile but also, yes, a major wildlife killer he’s a little man who needs cease from stealing our oxygen. I’m glad to hear how they are treated in Canada that’s refreshing news.
@@Jeremyramone yes definitely and they are so kind and docile
I just had a raccoon tear up everything under the floorboard of my trailer and then dies inside costing me thousands to remove and replace
You rescue exactly how it needs to be done! Thanks for your awesome videos--I "ALWAYS LOVE" watching them!!
Thank you so very much Kathie. We really appreciate your kind words and your donation. It means a lot and we will keep the videos coming!
Agreed .......... they truly are humane ...... and not in a gimmicky marketing way.
They are seriously so cute. I would be sitting playing with them for so long. So glad the other mother took them in! ❤
i know right. They are the cutest things, I love them. Hope they are safe now
They’d probably bite the shit outta you, just saying
❤Racoons are greatly misunderstood. I've taken care of many,and they're really sweet!💞 Thank-you for helping these tiny angels!👏👏👏
They are little gentlemen and women. I for a while fed the ones in my backyard in the past and they always came over to the glass and gently tapped the glass and taught their little ones the same thing. They never seemed to get upset when there wasn't food and were very polite they also knew to be wary and never completely trust us which was very good.
The squirrels on the other hand were very impolite and ripped the screen door when they didn't get food fast enough.
Thanks for your compassion for wildlife 🙏
Thank You for rescuing these precious babies! Sorry to hear something happened to the Mom 😞
i adore raccoons. i wish we had more folks like you guys. wildlife is a special gift of nature and shouldnt be taken for granted.
Your company provides a rewarding service that is appreciated by all animal lovers.
I could watch them all day long. They are so fascinating.
All baby animals are cute and cuddly.
What about a baby cobra? They’re cute, but still incredibly deadly. I wouldn’t want to cuddle with one of those lol
Except perhaps snakes!
That fourth baby had the best spot with everyone else on top of them. No wonder he didn't wake up. 🙂
Aw those tired squeaks are so adorable! No wonder they're grumbling, you woke them haha! Such a good new mom! Looking forward to the video next week!
Also love the back story we got.
The anecdote of how you got into the business is so heartwarming!! Thank you for sharing ❤ I love this content!!!
I sure appreciate your kind and hard humane work for these sweet animals and the communities.
I truly appreciate all the animal rescuers in the world.
As an animal lover, thank you for what your doing!
Aww, lots of wee 'Rockets'. lol Great work guys.
I didn't realize that a mom would take in babies that weren't her own so quickly. She just picked that first baby and took off without smelling it or anything. I love that❤
You guys are awesome at what you do, keep up the great work and posting such cute babies!
There are some animals that will do that I remember I watched a video of a sister tormented and kicked out of the pack by her sister who was the leader the leader died and literally the sister took in the orphaned babies this was about 20 years ago so that's I don't remember the animals ik they were big and and like hyneas or coyotes sized might have been coyotes
@@beverlyarcher3744mother hormones makes them want all babies… they abduct others… cats have taken chicken babies or ducklings…
I have raccoons out on my property, and currently had 2 mothers with 3 babies each. Literally yesterday I noticed 1 mom with 6 babies cruising around. I wondered if this is what happened, googled it, and landed on this video :)
Well done dad & daughter! I loved everything about this video. From your daughter’s pure joy in having them loving and climbing on her. ❤❤❤❤ Then your story of Mandy. ❤ Sad about the original momma. But pure joy about the new momma taking and caring for the extra babies. How many babies did she originally have of her own? Bless her cause she’s going to be one busy busy momma! GREAT VIDEO!! Thanks for taking us on your adventures! 💕🙏🏼💕🦝💕
How many babies did mom have of her own to start with? This was so sweet from start to finish.
The mother had 5 of her own babies, making the new total 9. We have seen litters with 10+ babies in it before and this mother was extremely quick to gather all 9 babies from us!
I was wondering too. And I'm amazed to learn she already had FIVE but didn't discriminate towards the 4 orphans. ! Wow, she's gonna be a busy mom.
@sachadee.6104 Yes she will, but at least it doesn’t take her 18 years until they can go off on their own 😂
I love you guys for taking such care to ensure these amazing animals are not harmed 💜
but....but....but they turn them loose in the neighborhood to infest someone else's property.
@joeburch9515
What do you think is a better option than this?????
You guys are doing God's work. You have so much care and respect for His creatures.
This is one of my favorite videos that you have posted! I'm sorry to hear that something happened to the first raccoon mom. On the bright side, it gave you more time to interact with the baby raccoons. I don't want to have to wait a week to see how this ends. How many babies did the adoptive mother raccoon have before taking the orphans?
It ended very good. Mom took all the baby's in as her own.😊 You can see it if you watch the very end. It shows what happens with the baby's on a sneak peek at the end of video.
Wow. Great job. Your story of your rescue at 17 was emotional. It must have been so hard to release her but you did what was best for her. I was going to say Cassandra it must be difficult not to keep one lol. But of course it is better for them. Thank you for sharing I love to watch your episodes. Especially just how caring you are. The babies are just so darn cute.
I rescued a baby and hes leaving to a sanctuary tomorrow to learn tto be a raccoon we are so sad but we know he needs to be able to be a raccoon
I loved seeing this! I know so many people who have a disgust or even hatred for raccoons. Thank you for helping those adorable little bundles.
Adorable until they kill your pets, chickens, ducks, destroy your property, etc etc etc
🥰🦝 7:42 That's so darn cute how she's lying there, and then that sleepy look. And then these cute sounds.
I ❤watching Gates! Any Squirrel 🐿 videos?
We have one squirrel video that will be posted in the upcoming weeks! We haven't seen as many squirrels as raccoons this year
I wish I could cuddle with the babies😊❤
Bless you guys for rescuing them. ❤
I love how you guys do things. So respectful and compassionate.
You do amazing work! I am thabkful to you and the wondeful homeowners that seek your assistance ❤ may we all treat all sentient beings with such love and kindness 🙏
I feel the same compassion for raccoons as you do and had much the same experience going back to 1970 having adopted a stray raccoon after an extermination agency had shot the mother and thrown the babies out into the street up the street from us. (This was Don Mills {Toronto} ) Ontario. I had 3 more raccoons during the '70s releasing them up on a farm in Grey County Ont. Until finally, after I had left Canada in 1983 to live in Brittany France. But in 2004 during a language exchange in Kassel Germany, I learnt that there were hundreds of thousands of "Waschbären" in that city.
Joseph Göbbels went to Florida in 1934 to bring back 2 matng couples to Kassel Germany. During the war all the fur farm raccoons escaped. Now there are millions even in Berlin. So, I brought back one raccoon in 2004 with my children and brought up this raccoon in a semi village countryside milieu. My favorite creature after Wolverines or Wolves and Coyotes.
9:00, absolutely precious with them climbing all over her. Such a beautiful site seeing them get to a new family so quickly. Great work by the GWC!!!
Love love loved this episode. Thank you so very much
Yall are so cool. Your daughter is the coolest woman!
I just just saw a dead raccoon
Big :(
On side of road
I was so sad knowing babies somewhere
Now Orphans.
We need wildlife over passes on every city road
Adorable kits ❤
So grateful for the amazing work you all do. I didn't know that raccoon mothers would take orphaned babies. thats so awesome!
Love binge-watching your channel 😊! Can tell you both genuinely love the animals! Watching this father-daughter duo together is so heartwarming! 😊💜
Good thing mom doesn't count the babies, just keeps getting one till here are no more left.
I've heard them say in other videos that the mom comes back to make sure there are no more left usually.
love the creativity on making this video! nicely done. Enjoyed watching this.
Loved the backstory about Mandy! It certainly provided insight into your and your daughter's compassion and why you do what you do. Thanks!
I first met Mama when she showed up to clean up after the birds, and squirrels, had fed on cracked corn. She had a yearling male and 3(turned out to be female) babies and a small baby possum that she had adopted. They came every day for 4 years. The babies had their own babies, and the possum still came nightly(he got big).
I had a huge armadillo come by while I was feeding the raccoons that just walked up like he'd heard I was cool, but he didn't like the biscuits. He did let me pat on his back alittle before he saundered off.
About the third year, she brought a female kitten that I started feeding...I've still got her son, the entire first litter, and his son and daughter, all fixed.
The raccoons started eating better food I'd leave out and drinking from a dripfed water wash tub. I began buying medium-sized dog biscuits that they would all line up to take one at a time. I had 18 babies one season around my feet waiting on their treats.
I've got photos and a few videos...some of Buddy the oldest male that could open my screen and come stand by my chair requesting his special treats...I'd put peanut butter on his dog treats or give him grapes that he'd throw his head back and eat immediately.
The cats would play with the baby raccoons and learned how to climb trees chasing the little raccoons... They got so frustrated that they couldn't climb down like the raccoons.
As a former pediatric nurse my immediate thought was “I’m worried momma may be gone and they’re dehydrated and weak which is why they’re so quiet and sedate 😔“ I’m @15:15 so I’ll see if she comes back. I’m praying the babies are okay….
I had no idea a different mother would take an orphan…amazing.
Bless you for the kind of work you do.
Such cuties. All of you!
Gah, I would want to play. They are so darn cute. ❤
I would have loved to have worked with ALL of you when I was young! What a great job! Thanks so much
You both brought tears of happiness to me this morning. I just live watching your videos to remind myself that there is people out their with compassion still. I wish you were local to my area because my neighbor hood is having an issue with groundhogs and I can’t stress enough to them to not remove them since this is their season with babies. I have a fenced in backyard and welcome them as I plant a vegetable garden every year just for the only one I’ve had visiting for two years.
Imagine you go to sleep with your siblings and just wake up to being alone, with a giant petting you awake.
If I ever make it to visit Canada again, I will drop by just to shake your hands ..... 🙂👍
So cool. So so cool. I love it. I would love to be covered in baby raccoons! 🥰
Thank you guys for being so amazing. I can’t say it enough. Thank you. You guys are doing truly significantly great work. Work that matters and makes a difference. Your genuine care is beautiful. Thank you for caring so much.
I had a female crippled raccoon that I fed for 11 years. She would bring her babies over to eat cat food and peanut butter sandwiches. On occasion, I would give mama some grapes and bananas. Not sure how she got crippled. Her back leg or maybe her hip was really bad. She never went far from my house. She would wait for me to come out and feed her. Unfortunately, she passed away December 27th, 2023 in my neighbors garage. I never knew what I connection I had with her until she passed away. I miss her everyday.
Precious, beautiful babies! So sorry something happened to their mama. Thank you for giving them a good life with a new family!
Adorable! ❤
This video made me cry😢😢 God bless you guys for your kindness !! And the raccoon moms are the best !! Soo maternal ♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🏻
Can't wait to see the rest of this video, raccoons are so neat to watch. Mums are uneak in many ways, I love watching your videos, I am from the US, and I live in a rural area were I see raccoons. Keep posting your videos.
That was pretty cool ! I am glad that the mom tool them in as her own! Love watching your videos!!!
That is so awesome how they just adopt more babies. People need to see how animals treat each other.
Thank you for doing what you do
Didn’t think I’d say this but what a cute raccoon.
You guys really are incredible. Love that the mama took the new babies
Thank you for sharing that story, very heartwarming to hear how your journey with them begain. We feed them too down here in the USA.
I cannot handle this level of cuteness!!!
Truly appreciate your efforts to care for these animals
This channel is so heartwarming, I love the respect and care you show these animals.
What a lovely reunion if only once. Thanks for sharing your story.
that is the best job in the World
I love watching these videos you take such good care of them xx I love how they put their hands over their eyes it’s so cute!!! Manchester UK
Got 3 new babies at my house. Love them and their mom, who has only 3 legs. She's such a great loving mom !
Thank you for ensuring the babies had a new Mom and family.
❤ love these
They're Soo CUTE❤❤❤❤ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING❤
Cute as FF!!! I saw a video of about 20 racoons in an empty dumpster it was hillarious.They looked like they were at a convention or holding a lodge meeting. Wish we had em in the UK. Just without the whole rabies thing.
Pretty incredible she just sees babies and know they need her and like that their her babies ❤❤❤
That’s amazing!!!🎉. Thanks for upping your camera game as time went on! Love the quality work in everything!
That mom said "man, these kids are multiplying " 🤣 love this. Raccoons are THE BEST
I adore you guys. You're truly wonderful.
Great videos. Thank you .
U guys are adorable!
So sad that you only got to see her only once after releasing her. Even seeing her once after 2 years of not seeing her was better than never. But still sad.
Love this video. Good moms. Wish all human moms were good like this.
I don't comment much, I do like every video though, and have been watching these episodes since you first started putting them on. This is one of the best videos I have seen you put out. Along with the baby foxes under the porch with the mother coming back for each one in the box, and of course almost destroying a bathroom, with owners permission, to get the baby raccoons out of the wall. I loved the short story of how you got started in saving/protecting the raccoons-I love them as well-any wildlife for that matter. Raccoons are wonderful mothers and this one taking on the foster babies was beautiful. I know they will do that, but seeing it has a really good feeling to watch it. You must feel great doing what you do. Thank you both, from the US.
this a example a mother no matter if the baby don't belong to her 🥲
For 2 individuals who were worried about mom suddenly showing up, you are spending too much time.
Great job.
Thanks for also sharing Mandy's story.
Raising a Baby Raccoon as a Teeenager would explain why you love Raccoons as much as I do. I can watch the Raccoon videos all day. There are plenty of them on this channel for me not to run out of videos to watch. I seen 1 video where you found a Raccoon in someones wall that had starved to death. That is a painful death. Too bad the lady didn't call it in long before it starved to death.
So cute the babies Raccoons 😍
The new mom has alot of wofk to do. I hope she can do it & not get to stressed out with a big handful. Im so happy theres people like you rescuing all kinds of wild babys.❤
Ils sont si mignons, si intelligents, si affectueux
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
The speed and utter lack of hesitation to grab the unknown baby proves animals are better than people.
I really admire the work you guys do! You’re so gentle and considerate with these animals!
Nice story. Everyone lived happily ever after 😊
Thank you ❤
Thanks for the great video, looking forward to next week's video.
Dang cute!
We sadly don't have them here in Norway.
Girl reminds me of Lizzie on Matt's Off Road Recovery channel 🙂
I just adore these videos! It’s so obvious when someone is doing what they LOVE doing and it makes my heart so happy that there are companies like yours! Thank you for doing what you do!!
I just love these little furballs and am so flad the new mom excepted them. I do love having wild pet raccoons as well, they are one of the perks of my job and make the shift enjoyable, I have a few that will even play chase the laser dot.
Feels illegal to be this early. 😅😂
I am in AWE watching what a good mom she is !!! She got ALL her babies and the adopted ones too. WAO❤
The love of a mother is so powerful!! ❤
Racoons are so cute and cool...i just love them. Thanks for your help =)
