Airport officials said the hub is surrounded by fields and raccoons have been known to get into the airport from time to time.
"The raccoon in the video most likely got lost in one of the baggage tunnels and was attempting to get out. The airport works with the USDA to set humane traps for raccoons," the airport said in a statement provided
to WPVI-TV.
Airport spokesperson Heather Redfern
said the raccoon was not trapped by staff and appears to have found its own way out of the building.
A similar incident occurred at the airport in 2022,
when a raccoon was filmed emerging from a wall vent to steal a packet of Twizzlers.
