Raccoon climbs 213 metres up Toronto condo tower

I wasn't quite sure where to post this...

A tower-crane operator looked down from his work on a downtown Toronto condo to see a raccoon had climbed up 213 metres on a ladder on Thursday morning.

Cool !! Perhaps the major downside of a cute story like this is that there is a percentage of racoons in Tornto with rabies, apparently.
Don't know how this is being dealt with.

Probably doesn't belong in the Vancouver section but funny either way. The crane operator must have brought a pretty tasty lunch with him that day.

Funny news, but I am more surprised that there is STILL a crane on top of the L Tower.
