    Raccoons will be the next to evolve as soon as they get opposable thumbs. I was one of the five people on Earth who got the infamous “Cow Tools” Far Side cartoon. Cows don’t have opposable thumbs, they have only one finger on each limb, so their tools would be crude and unusable. It wasn’t particularly funny or clever. I said, “heh” and went on to the next comic in the newspaper.
