Ravens and crows also recognize traffic lights and use them to break nuts and avoid getting run over when eating road kill.
I've watched a few programs on raccoons which show them ignoring cats, other raccoons, and/or skunks while sharing food sources. They also might have a social structure we just haven't seen because of the changes between city and country raccoons.
After all it wasn't that long ago that we found out that female cougars have social interactions with male cougars at kills and in other areas.
