Poor girl. Glad mom was there to protect her. Should've drop kicked the damn coon.

I would've spiked that damn 'coon like a football. Right on the concrete.

Yeah, that raccoon needed to be put down on the spot.

Damn straight. Rabies and distemper are common diseases in this species. Mom is a rock star, hope the little one is ok.

I had one raccoon touch his nose on my N sneaker late at night in the driveway. I thought it was the feral cats I feed. I looked down and quietly said, "hey get outta her", and it ran. To date I have trapped 23 and 6 possums. Several of the coons have made all of 30 pounds and several were 25. They can have a bad attitude. If I trap no more, that will be just fine.

Damn sure is not normal behavior. 30+ years is pest control and I have never seen a raccoon attack, provoked or unprovoked. Mom did a great job because raccoons are tenacious fighters. They routinely fuck dogs up. She doesn't grab that thing just right, she is going to have her hands get mauled at a minimum.

That's right. This thread has nothing to do with politics and no politics should be introduced.

Leaving the politics out of the statement, I'll agree that she clanks when she walks.

There should be some ass-whupping when it's over, too, because when mama is holding a racoon by the back of the neck and tells you to get back in the house, you GET BACK IN THE HOUSE. She couldn't get rid of the coon until all her idiot relatives had cleared the area.

Rabies shots aren't cheap or comfortable, but in this case I think they're mandatory for both mama bear and kid.
