Apparently the White House had a Pet Racoon for a while.

    From the Wikipedia page:

    Rebecca had lived alone and had her own way so long that I fear she was a little overbearing and dictatorial, perhaps reminding her spouse that he was living on her bounty. [Afterward, Rebecca] continued to live in single blessedness.

      I can kind of see what you mean. Maybe this more “natural”/less staged picture is less fake looking? (source)

        Yeah that one does look more real. Something about the lighting in the first one I guess? It’s almost like the Racoon is blurrier. Hard to say. Fun fact though, thanks for sharing. I love Racoons!
