Raccoon spotted in ceiling at Toronto airport

Toronto's latest adorable and unusual animal sighting comes courtesy today of Pearson airport. Somehow a raccoon found its way into the ceiling above the baggage claim area. Travellers were quick to capture the critter and post photos and videos on social media.

The raccoon is one of our city's beloved mascots so much so that its likeness is actually used in themarketing of a local airline.

In the past, raccoons have beenspotted on the subway,the Toronto Star building,climbing a craneandstealing donuts. We've also seenmakeshift memorials that have gone viralandthat moment of heartbreakwhen a loved one was taken too soon.

But even the folks at Porter couldn't have dreamt up this stunt as a way to welcome tourists to our rainy city.

Pearson has yet to release any official comment on the sighting so it's still unclear what has become of the raccoon or whether it has been relocated off the premises.
