A murder in my back yard

[kirbinster]

History repeats itself, another murder in Randolph, NJ. This time the killers were Kaybee and Trent, two of my three huskies. My neighbor spotted the victim walking down the stream and grabbed her 3 pound dog as the coon walked up on my lawn. The critter's mistake, as Trent and Kaybee spied it and tag teamed it. The noises were horrible. These shots were of it licking its wounds, but the internal injuries were too bad and 10 minutes later it was dead.

Animal control was called and they took it away. They are going to have it tested, but doubt it was rabid. They said it is an old wives tale that these critter are rabid if they are walking around during the day. A similar murder took place in my back yard about five years ago, but it was Kirby and Kaybee that were the attackers that time.

I have seen quite a few raccoons walking around during the day lately. It is kind of odd though, as they generally are nocturnal.

I laugh at people with 3 pound dogs. A real dog can take down a raccoon any day, your two huskies demonstrated excellent conflict resolution techniques when dealing with a masked bandit. Good to hear the neighborhood trash cans are safe from this nightly marauding table scrap eater.

The huskies said "Hey buddy no free lunches here, only we get the table scraps."
