...lol, no, they are definitely not raccoons. what.

And they're ursids, so by a strictly zoological definition (which I think would be the definition that matters in this case?) they are in fact bears

I actually remember hearing about the arguments over whether giant pandas were bears or raccoons when I was a kid. I'm pretty sure genetic testing has put giant pandas with bears for a while now.
Maybe anon got it confused with red pandas which are more closely related to raccoons though.

Yeah, did a little looking and I guess they used to be classified separately from ursids and close to, if not with, procyonids (which don't include the red panda either, but I had to double-check).

This is interesting and I'd look more into it if I didn't really need to go to bed...darn.

raccoons are bears, no really. raccoons used to be 8 foot long pack hunting bears, than humans came to america.

Really? A Google search of "raccoon megafauna" got me nothing. Citation?
