The most distinguishable characteristics of the raccoon are its black mask across the eyes and bushy tail with anywhere from four to ten black rings. The forepaws resemble slender human hands and make the raccoon unusually dextrous. Both their forepaws and hindpaws have five toes. Coloration varies with habitat, but tends to range from grey to reddish brown to buff.
The raccoon's body is stocky and generally weighs from 13-15 pounds; weight varies with habitat and region as well. Males are usually heavier than females, but the difference is often indistinguishable. Raccoons' body length ranges from 2 feet to 3 1/2 feet.
COMBAT
Raccoons attack with their forepaws and teeth.
Slow Fall (Ex): A raccoon that is within arm's reach (or forepaw's reach if you prefer) of a solid surface (wall, tree, etc) can use the surface to slow its descent. The raccoon takes damage as if the fall were 30 feet shorter that it actually is.
Skills: Raccoons receive a +4 racial bonus to Listen and Spot checks.
ACTIVITY/ECOLOGY
Raccoons are nocturnal and seldom active in the daytime. During extremely cold, snowy periods, raccoons have been observed sleeping for long periods at a time, but do not hibernate. Primarily a solitary animal, the only real social groups raccoons form are that of mother and young. Although, occasionally a male may stay with a female for a month prior to breeding and until after the birth of their young.
Raccoons have a highly developed tactile sense. Their human-like forepaws are especially sensitive and enable the raccoon to handle and pry open prey and climb with ease. With their fine sense of hearing, raccoons are also especially alert. Similarly, raccoons have excellent night vision. Their common gait is a shuffle like walk; however, they are able to reach speeds of 15 miles per hour on the ground. Raccoons climb with great agility and are not bothered by a drop of just over 10 times their own length.
As well as being excellent climbers, raccoons are also strong swimmers, which is beneficial to an animal that often lives near water. However, they are reluctant to swim; without waterproof fur, swimming forces them to take on extra weight. Raccoons don't travel any farther than necessary; they travel only far enough to meet the demands of their appetites.

Coloration varies with habitat, but tends to range from grey to reddish brown to buff.

Although its cousins may be timid, the larger and fiercer version is rough even in dire context.

The statistics here describe the common goat.
Combat
A goat prefers to attack by charging its opponent, doing so every turn with its improved charge ability.
Knockback (Ex): When a goat successfully makes a gore attack with a charge, it may knockback its target. Treat the knockback as a bullrush, except that the goat does not provoke an attack of opportunity for initiating the bullrush, the goat does not move together with the target, and the target always is moved the maximum amount determined by the bullrush attack. The goat also gets a +2 circumstance bonus on the bullrush since it occurs at the end of a charge. The size rules apply as normal to a knockback; since a goat is Small, it can only knockback Small creatures or smaller.
Improved Charge (Ex): A goat goat can charge if he moves in a straight line for a single movement. In other words, he can move freely as a move-equivalent action and then charge as his second action.
