Mice do not really have a meaning as far as classification goes they are part of the rat group. Mice are considered to be pests because they damage large amounts of crops and spread disease. The common house mouse is a relative of the white mouse. Mice belong to Muridae, Cricetidae, and Platacanthomyidae of the order Rodentia. Raccoon Raccoons too are a rather common mammal of New York.
Raccoons are small fury animals.
However, raccoons are carnivores, or meat eating animals. Raccoons walk like bears and humans. The raccoon tail has about six or seven rings. Raccoons usually live in streams near forests that are close to civilization. Raccoons make up the genus Procyon of the family Procyonidae.
