Do Racoons Have Opposeable Thumbs?

The latest questions for Siri have certainly been interesting. I still get a steady amount of "Siri demonic", Siri Satan", and "Siri 666", but for a change of pace, Siri was asked, "How tall is Rick Santorum?" The answer is 6' 4". Also, among the Siri searches was a request to see Siri naked! Hahaha! There will be no pics of Siriunsun naked, because the picture on the right is the closest to adult content I am willing to publish! Asking for naked pictures.....geesh! Where do some people think they are? Walmart? There was also a query of, "Siri, do racoons have opposeable thumbs?" The answer is no. They do not. But they are very able to manipulate locking mechanisms, and in studies done with racoons in captivity, have been shown to be able to remember how to spring different locks three years after only doing it once! That's pretty impressive. They can also open doors with their paws, turn on water with their paws, and use their paws to pour cereal out of boxes while you are at work. They never remember to turn the water off after they have turned it on, though.
