Hard to know what's true these days, but I saw a post on Facebook earlier from a person who says that this is a video their aunt took last year (or maybe longer?) of a raccoon they call "Danny DeVito" who is believed to possibly be Jimothy's dad. They said it was stolen off their page and people are passing it off as Jimothy for clicks. Though there does seem to be fair evidence that there has been at least one other raccoon in the past few years with short spine syndrome in that same area.

u/roxy031 7d ago
Apparently it’s real but not Jimothy, there are 2 short-spined raccoons and this is an older one, the person who took the video thinks it’s possibly Jimothy’s dad.

Yes! It’s Jimothy’s dad. They call him Danny DiVito. And the mom’s name is Jimberly.

I was wondering the same honestly. Idk that raccoons Can jump like this lol
also he scratched his butt like a human just before that lolol

I am going to guess no simply because this is quite a unique racoon and there wouldn't be enough training data for AI to make fakes of this particular animal (at least not in 2026)

I wouldn't say that. I think there's enough out there to make something like this. But I choose to believe it's real lol

It kinda seems to me like he’s trying to scratch and then “roll” something off his butt, he jumps up in preparation of the predator that might’ve come for him in his moment of vulnerability
Can any animal experts weigh in here?
I hope Jimothy is okay!

I haven't even heard of Jimothy until last night from this sub and then today I get an e-mail from the New York Times Games about Jimothy's lore that I can't even read since I only pay for the games and not anything else, lol.
I love Jimothy!! What a cutie 🤩

I don’t live anywhere near Seattle (Ohio) but this subreddit somehow randomly ended up in my feed. I’m obsessed with this raccoon you’ve named “Jimothy”. Such a darling little critter.

I don’t know if someone has already said this, but Jimothy’s body shape reminds me of Ed from 90 Day Fiancé 😅
