In 2017 the Moscow-based petting zoo Animals Aren't Toys filed a lawsuit after one its animals, a raccoon named Tomas got grabby with women's breasts. The zoo didn't sue the raccoon, obviously because that would be idiotic, but instead ensued legal action on a company called Art-Msk. Art-Msk had rented Tomas for a commercial in which a raccoon runs off with a woman's bra. They had also shot photos of the woman cradling the raccoon against her bare breasts. According to the zoo Thomas became grumpy and sat in the corner and went for women's chests.

Animals Aren't Toys alleged that the company "lured [Tomas] onto the actress' chest with treats" and effectively turned him into a furry grabber. (He has since recovered, according to the zoo.) It also argued that by posting such steamy and risque photos of Tomas with an unclothed woman, Art-Msk was sullying the reputations of raccoons everywhere. Art-Msk reportedly called the lawsuit "absurd."
