Unacceptable Rypstra
105 (3) Them's Fight'n Words
Four Raccoons Forty feet up a tree, and fighting like you wouldn't believe. The fight was well underway before we arrived, and was noisy enough to wake residents. I have no idea what it was about, but we were rooting for the underdog...the one clinging on to the bottom end of a drooping Douglas Fir branch.
They would break from fighting for a bit, then the instigator (the one up top), would come back and start it all over again. On two occasions, large tree branches broke away and our hearts were in our mouth, so to speak. We weren't sure if the Raccoon had fallen. But each time we double checked,
it was still clinging on for dear life...(Sidney, BC).
