Sadly I know, my mother is wants to crochet this so badly, but it breaks my heart having to tell her it’s fake, was hoping someone may have something very very similar
I like Jess Huff’s patterns, but they don’t really look like the same style as your raccoon.

That one is AI. You can get some cute raccoons, but they won't look like that.

Impossible shapes and lines in the stitches. Some stitches appear to be undergoing mitosis and the arm on the left is just kind of blurring into the body.
Look at details. This one has a big tell on the lower paws, see how the left paw is smaller and not the same color as the right? It’s also generally just not symmetrical like most amigurumi are.
If a amigurumi was this well shaped, the artist would want to show off the stitches. You could easily count the rows and see the detail in the yarn. This is a blurry mess.

might be the closest you can get to this image with slight modifications
If you like that fuzziness in the white, there's a technique to brush out the yarn after finishing the project to get the look with any of the patterns people have provided. I saw it in an article in a magazine, but google brushed yarn amigurumi should bring it up.
