Conrad the Raccoon, the most famous raccoon to ever live (and die) in Toronto, now has a plaque commemorating his heartbreaking death, ten years on. If you find yourself stumbling along the sidewalk at Church and Yonge, keep your eyes peeled for the official unofficial marker of little Conrad, placed right at his final resting spot. Conrad's demise sparked visits from locals, leaving behind flowers, candles, photographs, and even a donation box that formed a growing memorial. Their resourcefulness, resilience, and cheeky personalities have contributed to their reputation as the unofficial mascots of Toronto," finishes the sign. Pay your respects to sweet Conrad at his commemorative plaque today and get caught up on some trash panda facts.
