Raccoon Encounter

Today, the dogs were just barking their heads off. I went out and saw a big male raccoon about five feet from the dog pen and not leaving. I went in and got my gun and went back out to see if I could chase him off. He was in no mood to leave and according to everything I have read, raccoons that are bold and seen in the daytime are often in the early stages of rabies. I hated to shoot him but even after firing my pistol he didn't leave. As cute as they are, they are fierce fighters and a sick one is nothing to mess with. I buried him in woods. Be careful out there. MUD
