A raccoon was spotted wandering around a Scarborough McDonald's

Footage of a raccoon milling about the kitchen of a McDonalds restaurant in Scarborough has emerged on social media over the weekend.

In the roughly one-minute video uploaded to Tik Tok, the creature can be seen walking around the restaurant's dining area, stopping to sniff at least one person's shoes.

The customer then appears to greet the raccoon, while at least one person elsewhere in the restaurant is heard saying, “Get him a burger.”

Later in the video, an employee can be seen using a broom to remove the raccoon from under the table.

The man who shot the video, Amin Hadji, told CTV News Toronto that the incident happened at the McDonalds location in the Parkway shopping center near Victoria Park and Ellesmere avenues.

Since it was first posted on Sunday, the video has gone viral, garnering more than 800 comments.

This isn't the first time a raccoon has been accidentally spotted at a Toronto business.

Another video of a raccoon milling about cash registers at a Dupont Avenue Loblaws also went viral in April.

Two months later, Toronto Animal Services (TAS) issued a warning to residents to avoid physical contact with raccoons and other wildlife amid a “significant increase” in the number of sick and injured raccoons in the city.

CP24 has reached out to McDonalds Canada for comment, but has yet to hear back.
