Yes--that was very satisfying for us! And we had other experiences with the 'babies', like when we left a fish frame for them, one of them would grab it by the head and go to a nearby tree and try to climb the tree, but the slippery fish bones would be under the 'coon's body so it couldn't grasp the bark and would slide back down. Very frustrating for the 'coon, but amusing to us!
Good question! I don't think we named them other than "the twins" meant them. They really loved the seafood refuse we'd leave for them as well. When we had shrimp remains on the doormat, all that was left in the morning would be the long skinny antennae scattered around.
I love this story! So many posts on LinkedIn by amazing marketers talk about how personal stories are the ones people want to read. You nailed it!
love the image of them dragging their full stomachs! Sometimes I feel like that, too.

Yes, what a sight that must have been!
Yes, the personal contact. Brings things to life! What did you name your `coon pals?
