We can’t stress enough on the importance of social distancing, washing hands and sanitization to fight the coronavirus pandemic. Hence, the World Health Organisation (WHO) shared the correct way of washing hands and encouraged others to do so frequently for a good 20 seconds. Kerala cops also demonstrated steps to wash hands in their own musical way.
But if that didn’t convince you, here’s a video of a raccoon washing its hands with soap and water amid COVID-19 outbreak.
In a 15-second video shared by Indian Forest Services (IFS) officer Parveen Kaswan, a raccoon is seen diligently washing its hands, reports India Today.

The cute furry mate first wets its hands with water, then takes a good amount of soap and rubs hands thoroughly. It then finally washes the soap off with some water in a bowl nearby.
People online were impressed by its skills. Some even said that the raccoon was smarter than most of us.
Please people, at least learn after watching this and do not embarrass the human race any further. Boss if you still can't do it, you deserve no better than a jungle.
I love the raccoon and trust me I see many people who still are not good as the raccoon 🙂— shashank singh (@shashank_singh2) April 10, 2020

Maintaining personal hygiene and covering our nose and mouth with a face mask is key to not contracting the virus. Hope this adorable raccoon was able to persuade you to wash your hands regularly.
