Raccoon ATTACK!!!!

Bloody raccoons. We live on the 3rd floor of an appt complex: Note again our flat is on the 3rd floor!!! Tonight we came home and there was the biggest raccoon I have ever seen in my life hanging out by our front door. Freaked both my room-mate and I the hell out. That sucker was so damn big that I actually backed down from it. Can anyone say RABIES!!!! To top it off when we tried to scare it off the damn thing decided to take as its route of escape the very path I was standing on. To all of you who think I was being a chicken: ask my roomie that sucker seemed like the size of a cougar; also remember that I didn’t grow up in America, the first time I ever saw a raccoon was when I was 21 so to me they are still ‘exotic’ animals; and finally DAMN DISNEY - just another animal that they make seem cute and cuddly and is nothing like it in real life.

    Nah that sucker was HUGE! Seriously if I was back in Jamaica I would have had to reach for the cutlass that sucker looked mean, it was it or me, or Dan (If Dan had been on my side of the walkway I would have tried to sacrifice him to the 'coon). It's easy for readers to make fun but if y'all had seen that bengal tiger of a racoon you wouldnt talk that smack.

    Bro, im with you. Once i had a whole family of them hold'up in my backyard. Not cool. Plus, from my extensive knowlege of all things rodent, those fu-----s can be real nasty. And they are not afraid to show you whats up. Thank your lucky stars that thing didnt make jerky out of your face.

    I feel you Aaron. You should see the size of the paw prints my neighborhood raccoon leaves. I ran in to it once in my driveway and I swear it was laughing at me.

    Thats my word! Those suckers torment normal people; the people who are not afraid of those Elephant rats are the freaks. I grew up on a city-farm raccoons have no place in my life.

    Wow man I had no idea racoons were so bad. I still have yet to see one in person, I hope it stays that way.
