... becoming domesticated?

Well, you ain't whistlin' Dixie! 🎶 Side note: I would love to have a band called The Trash Pandas! That is an awesome band name!

Quote
"Your local trash pandas aren’t just getting used to digging through your trash can, they are actually starting to physically change in response to continued life around humans. In a study published last month in Frontiers in Zoology, researchers found that raccoons living in urban areas have shorter snouts than their rural counterparts do—a classic trait of domestication."

I've literally seen pet raccoons, they are domesticated.
