There is an old story that tells of how the Raccoon got his markings. It tells of an old crafty raccoon that was trying to steal from Raven's smokehouse. First, he went around the house peering in through all the knotholes in the wooden walls of the house to see if he could reach any of the salmon hanging on the racks.
His eyes turned black from the smoke but he finally spotted a rack that was fairly close to the smoke hole in the roof. He climbed up but found he could not quite reach the fish with his paws, so he turned around and tried to hook them with his tail. His tail became ringed with the smoke that was trying to escape through the roof. He almost had the fish when Raven returned and saw the tell tail rings around the raccoons face and tail. As a punishment, Raven caused the markings to remain.
