The scent of binturong musk is often compared to that of warm buttered popcorn and cornbread.

oh, stop. binturongs love hugs and bellyrubs, and if you piss one off by not hugging it enough, the worst it will do is spritz you with its hot buttered musk and go back to being an adorable weasel-headed grizzly bear. what have you done with your life, flopson?

i really _really_ hate raccoons actually and yes i am afraid of them but--not without good reason! we once heard two raccoons fighting in a tree (mother raccoon defending baby raccoons from male raccoon) and seriously it sounded like torture. i shudder at the mere thought. also when i was a child my neighbours' cats were murdered by a raccoon (entered through the cat door) while they were on vacation. they returned home to find their walls and floors covered in blood, their cats splayed across multiple rooms, and a raccoon hissing and spitting at them in a corner of their living room. raccoons are NOT okay! don't be fooled!
