Raccoon

Today, in honor of Sam's birthday, Ivor decided to be Sam's favorite animal, a raccoon. Raccoons are clever, adaptable creatures and can live in all kinds of environments, both urban and rural, in North America. They're well recognized by their facial markings, which make them look somewhat like bandits. Raccoons are so nifty that tyrannosaurus rexes fear them (transcription of that comic can be found here).

Ivor's raccoonicity is well in keeping with his recent habit of looking for food all the time. Today, Ivor not only badgered his friend Amy for treats, but also started nosing around Sam's desk in search of muffin crumbs. Like other raccoons, Ivor seems willing to eat pretty much anything lately, even when it might not be good for him. He didn't get much muffin or ice cream, though, which is why he's sort of moping in this picture:



Pooooor Ivor.
