Raccoons Mistake Tesla Cybertruck for Dumpster in Minnesota Camping Incident

Minneapolis (AP) – If you think the new Tesla Cybertrucks look like garbage, you’re not alone. A Minnesota family, while camping with their Tesla Cybertruck, awoke to find evidence of raccoon mischief all over their high-tech vehicle.

The family discovered paw prints scattered across the Cybertruck’s vault, essentially the trunk of the truck. The determined raccoons had tried to break into the vehicle, mistaking it for a dumpster.

Online commenters were quick to dub the raccoons "trash pandas," humorously pointing out the apparent confusion between the Cybertruck’s angular design and traditional dumpsters. Despite their best efforts, the raccoons managed to damage the cover but were unable to get inside the vault.

Tesla has not yet responded to this unusual incident, but it has certainly sparked a conversation about the vehicle’s distinctive appearance and its unintended allure to wildlife.
