    Which is true about the Raccoon?

    • Very large

    • Rat like

    • Herbivorous

    • Nocturnal

    Correct Answer
    A. Nocturnal
    Explanation
    Raccoons are known to be nocturnal creatures, meaning they are most active during the night. This behavior allows them to avoid predators and find food more easily. While raccoons can vary in size, they are generally not considered very large. They have a distinct appearance, with their mask-like facial markings and ringed tail, but they are not necessarily rat-like. Additionally, raccoons are omnivorous, meaning they eat both plants and animals, so they are not strictly herbivorous.
