Crazy Video: Raccoon steals carpet! As woman kills crazy raccoon that attacked a child.
August 10, 2007
Oh YEAH! Its Friday…..You all know what that means…… Yes, it’s time for another instalment of…..
The Crazy News Crazy Video of the Week!
In this Friday’s crazy video, a devious raccoon decides that a 5-finger discount on a nice looking carpet door mat is in order. After slowly sneaking in through a doggy door, the raccoon slowly claws the carpet, and in the blink of an eye, is back off into the night.
Raccoons have an amazing ability to open many closed containers, despite having no opposable thumbs like us humans.
They also have a reputation for being clever and mischievous; in fact, their intelligence and dexterity equip them to survive in a wide range of environments and are one of the few medium-to-large-sized animals that have enlarged its range since human encroachment began.
Raccoon’s are now my new favourite animal! Little devils they are…
UPDATE:
Well, well, well. Good things come in 2’s.
Less than a day after The Crazy News decided to feature a devilish raccoon as the Crazy Video of the Week, shocking news comes out of the US.
40-year-old Denise Morrison was taking a leisurely stroll thought some woods in Connecticut with a group of children, when a raccoon seemingly came out of nowhere and bit one of the children, a 5-year-old boy, on the leg.
“It went right for us, it wasn’t stumbling around,” Denise told local media.
Denise pulled the raccoon off the child, and told the kids to run for their lives and head for home. From then on it was just woman on raccoon. Going toe-to-toe in the woods alone.
She went into full action mode, and instead of using a stick or a foot to beat the rabid creature, Denise chose a more aggressive style, knelling on the raccoon with both legs and then strangled the animal to death.
You go girl!
“It felt like a long time… I knew if I hit it, it might attack someone else, or me,” She said.
Local authorities praised Morrison as a hero.
“She had the presence of mind to choke it…she is one tough lady,” a local animal control officer said.
“She wrestled a 25-pound raccoon and kept her cool.
“She let the kids run away. It was what any mother would do…she is amazing, a pioneer mom,” a local policeman said.
The carcass was taken to a state laboratory where, unfortunately, it tested positive for rabies.
Denise and the boy are undergoing rabies treatment.
Go on, tell the world!

Where I live, “come back with my carpet you coon!” has a totally different meaning.

Now somewhere in the Cheshire woods of Connecticut
roamed a lone critter named Rabid Raccoon.
And one day this woman choked off his air supply.
Bulged-out Rabid’s left eye.
Well Rabid didn’t like that.
Said, “Shoot! I was gonna get that boy.”
For one day, Rabid stalked a kiddie down,
feelin full of rabid gloom, a victim of a waxin’ Moon.
Rabid Raccoon, met his sad, early doom,
just to fill up some space in Meriden’s Record-Journal.
Rabid had come, equipped with his gums,
to bite off the leg of his rival.
His rival it seems, had broken his (well you know)
by squeezing vertebrae cervical C3.
The boy’s chaperone yelled, “Kiddies, run home!”
And took Rabid in her little old handsies.
Now she and her hands, more strong than a man’s,
effectively told Rabid to slow down.
Rabid sucked in, but he knew she would win.
He said, “Lady, I’m sorry. Can I get down?”
But this was said with his eyes, and she misread
it as lies, and Rabid collapsed in Connecticut.
Da-dada-dada-da-da, da, dada-dada-da-da, da
dada-dada-dada-da-da-DOO-DOO-DOODOO-DOOP-DOO! (repeat until hoarse)
