OK, first? Racoons be crazy, and second? They can move when they are mad


Two years ago saw racoon in broad daylight 9 amish about 10 feet from the back of our house, under a pine tree. I tried to shoo it away with a broom, because we have dogs and I didn't want any problems, and it *charged me* on two legs like, "Come at me, bro!" Fortunately I can still backpedal (all those high school football drills) and backed away, and yet for a couple of seconds thought it was going to close the gap, teeth first. Then it stopped suddenly, stared at me a bit and took its time but eventually went over the fence. Never saw it again.
