It is not more than a week since Robert Bishop from Arkansas in the USA woke up to scratching noises under the bed one early morning.
When he pushed the bed and the blanket away, he spotted a large hole in the floor.
– At first I am surprised that there is a hole where I have not seen before. Then I suddenly see that there is movement down there!
So says Robert i a viral video on TikTok. In recent days, he has filmed the hole under the bed repeatedly – and posted it on social media where you can clearly see something moving down in the dark.
Found after 26 years: – Absolutely insane
“New neighbor trying to move in,” he writes above the first video clip. In the clip, you can see a black snout sniffing and curiously looking up at Robert’s bedroom.
– Sick
At the time of writing, the TikTok clips have been viewed over 6 million times.
The mysterious creature in the hole has unsurprisingly set the internet on fire, and there is great discussion about what kind of creature is hiding in the floor.
– It is clearly a squirrel, writes a follower.
– No, this must be a dog, writes another.
At first, Robert himself wasn’t sure what was hiding between the floorboards.
Then the crab stuck out a claw:

Set up the camera
– So sick! I’m afraid it’s a grizzly bear, comments one follower.
– This is terrifying. I would have died, writes another.
According to news channel 5News Arkansas Robert didn’t know what to do when he discovered the claw in the floor. How was he going to get hold of the animal – and what was he going to do with it next?
– Finally I managed to get under our porch, where I crawled over to about where the bedroom floor starts. Then I set up a wildlife camera, he explains to the channel.
That same evening, he followed the camera live from his phone – and quickly spotted what was hiding under the house:

– It was a raccoon! he writes in the third clip, which at the time of writing has been viewed over 500,000 times.
In the wake of the wildlife camera video, the comment section has been allowed to run once again. Several are surprised that it was not a larger animal.
– Snuta looked so brutal through the hole in the floor, writes one follower.
– Good thing it wasn’t worse, writes another.

Several people wonder what Robert will do with the raccoon next, something he himself is not sure about.
The animal-loving man writes in the comments section that he is going to put out food and water for a few days, and adds that it “may well stay there for a while” for his part.
A couple of days after the wildlife camera first captured the raccoon, Robert has updated his followers that he hasn’t seen his new lodger for a few days.
– However, had a visit from a marsupial who wanted some Belgian waffles, writes Robert in a new video. There you can see a hungry marsupial well satisfied with both waffle and water.
