Yes, but it translates as med=honey jed=eat, medjed, I don't know many slavicisms, except vampire, that's why I'm confused

Almost for Sweden too "tvättbjörn", "wash bear". Why is this so strange?

It refers to their typical behavour of washing their food when having the chance to do so. So the name isn't strange at all.

Did y'all see the video of the racoon that tried to wash cotton candy and it just dissolved? Sorry, I just had to think of the confused look on his face, so cute :3

I hate raccoons. They are on one hand so cute that you just want to make pets of them and then AT 2 AM IN THE GOSHDARN MORNING THEY ARE BREAKING INTO THE GARAGE AND STEALING THE DOG'S FOOD. Not that it changes that they are cute.

Is Serbian the only language that doesn't call this bandit wash bear pig. How do you call raccoon dogs than. Washed Beowulf wolves?
