  1. Miss Thang says:

    You’re supposed to make your kid A snack, not THE snack!

    • Yummy says:

      Nutricious!

      • TMI Service says:

        The nutria (sometimes known colloquially as the “nutra-rat”), is a large, herbivorous, semiaquatic rodent and the only member of the family Myocastoridae. Originally native to temperate South America, it has since been introduced to North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa, primarily by fur ranchers. Although it is still valued for its fur in some regions, its destructive feeding and burrowing behaviors make this invasive species a pest throughout most of its range.

        Nutria meat is lean and low in cholesterol. While there have been many attempts to establish markets for coypu meat, all documented cases have generally been unsuccessful.

  2. Goodness says:

    If raccoons ate children, this very well could be a perfect Darwin nomination.

  3. 5 eagles/5Finches/1fox/6cats/high5/owl C.C.C. says:

    I think this is the dad from the previous fail?

  4. Loonix says:

    That is not their kid.
    They just try to reduce the overpopulation ;)

  5. jam says:

    That raccoon was soooo asking for it!

  6. Michael J Fox says:

    For the sake of my faith in humanity i will assume that was a joke.

  7. Schmock says:

    i’d love to hear him explaining that to the zookeeper

  8. fuzz on the concept says:

    Who was that masked varmint?

  9. 5 eagles/high5/1finches/1fox/1cats/1vole/owl/caterpiller/1femur C.C.C. says:

    The father is teaching the raccoon how to do a pile driver wrestling move.

  10. fuzz on the concept says:

    I’m with you, too. I’ve fed wild raccoons by hand, as well. They were well-mannered and insisted on washing my children before they ate them.

  11. grannycatflap says:

    Tarzan II
    Raised by ‘coons

  12. This turns parenting on its head. “Behave or I’ll feed you to the raccoon.”

  13. k@ the custard fairy says:

    Somebody stop that man…he appears to be using his child as a club!

  14. Zhoen says:

    “Parental Supervision” not all it’s cracked up to be.

  15. sauerkraut says:

    This is how I’d do it. Raccoon’s are amazingly intelligent and playful critters. Were it not the wild streak and tendency towards rabies (in the wild), they’d be a great pet along the lines of a dog. You can even teach them to behave and do tricks!

  16. Rem says:

    Regardless, a wild animal should never be fed. Ever. And you never know the true temperment of an animal. I have encountered many, many, many people who have been bitten by wild animals (squirrels, raccoons) when feeding in a populated area, they assumed it was okay. It isn’t, and it’s illegal.

  17. Shadow says:

    Leave Michael ALONE!

    *cries*

  18. ts6788 says:

    Whats up with all the parenting fails!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  19. Brewski says:

    In some areas (rural upstate NY in the USA, for example) most racoons are rabid. They tend to be aggressive and irrational.

    • Leila Leila ♀♀ says:

      Sounds like my hubby’s ex.

    • Mr Evilwrench says:

      Rule of thumb around here (central IN), if you see it in the daylight, it’s probably rabid. They’re nocturnal, and being out in the daylight constitutes irrational behavior unless they’ve been driven from a nest.

      • humor me says:

        You’re from my neck of the woods! I had one that actually tried to break into the front door during daylight… with 6 dogs and multiple cats in plain sight. I called the sheriff’s office to have them deal with it, and they just shoo-d it back into the woods. Not too bright Barney Fife.

    • nobody says:

      Do not forget that they are usually ill-tempered. Despite what those saturday cartoons might show, they have a nasty attitude.

  20. k@ the custard fairy says:

    The issue here is not really what enclosure the father chose to hold his child head first over, or the possible rabid/angry reaction of the contents of the enclosure.
    It is the sheer stupidity of holding a child upside down over concrete that is the issue here.
    *fends off rabid racoon, using broom handle*

  21. Liam says:

    “Daddy, where’s my hand gone?”

  22. grannycatflap says:

    Pick and Pay, the new Asian restaurant.

  23. Noni says:

    Wow! If the kid get rabies, he can genuinely blame his parents for that.

  24. Skyler Singleton says:

    omg my mom has mush up there

  25. Robert says:

    Oh. Please. This is hardly a fail. It’s not even very dangerous. If that raccoon were not accustomed to human interaction it wouldn’t even be there. It’s going to grab whatever the kid hands it and run back a couple of feet with its treasure.

    It may not be teaching the kid about nature in the best manner but you people need to get a grip.

  26. Mechanically Seperated says:

    It’s only a fail if they are actually the parents.

  27. anon says:

    this is a WIN!! if my dad ever did that to me i would have declared him the best dad in the world!!
    nothing better than feeding a raccoon with your own hands..
    upside down is even nicer..he’ll never forget that magic moment

    • boiled says:

      jap – it´s definitly a win for the kid!
      “daddy – do you want your life becoming a living HELL?? then get my ass down there!” XD

  28. Hondo says:

    Proof again the liberals have degrated all aspects of our society.

  29. Harry V. says:

    I totally agree that this is not a fial, rather a win.
    Finally some parents who punish their snotty little brats instead of ignoring them. Or maybe this is just what I want to see, rather than what`s actually happening.

    Probably as I would totally drop my children with the racoons if they`re being annoying :)

  30. dave says:

    While you were lucky, feeding wild animals by hand is dangerous both for you and the animal.

  31. pootpoot says:

    And where is the fail in this pic? You fail for calling this a fail.

  32. buba® says:

    buba® finds that smart that people are givin fresh human meat to racoons for free. It must be more tasty than dead human meat.

  33. Hiilumaru says:

    I wanna feed a raccoon. Then it might want to be my friend because it knows that I’ll be nice to it. :3 I want a raccoon friend.

  34. Dan says:

    and now, the lions

  35. jimbo says:

    well it’s certainly cheaper then daycare

  36. aburrido says:

    “Don’t be shy, eat the little boy!”
    Kudos to whoever gets that quote

  37. Kaisa says:

    Is the “153 Failures in Communication”-link weird, or is it supposed to just lead to this page?

  38. Petra says:

    Totally fail!

  39. Dr. Nick says:

    “Hello everybody!”

  40. Bobby says:

    ahhh yes the great nation of canada!

  41. Donald Zerli, Patriot says:

    Raccoons bite. Even hand-raised, tame raccoons sometimes bite. It’s just in their nature. They bite hard, too.

  42. Andrew Ong says:

    Dangerous fail indeed.
    {That is one way of feeding fish to the seals (or something more or less like it).}

  43. skateboardguy says:

    lol

  44. Awesome issues here. I am very glad to peer your post. Thanks so much and I am looking ahead to touch you. Will you please drop me a e-mail?
