we has seen giant raccoons out here in the Lewis River Valley for years
these creatures stand about 3' tall and can walk on their hind legs
not afraid of dogs or humans
my daughter works in Portland and comes up here for the weekends to relax
last August, she came up for a 3 day weekend - and her car alarm was set off in the middle of the night for the first 2 nights - being from Portland, she would get up each time and go out to check her car.
note: she grew up out here in the Valley, shooting Ruger 10/22s since she was 8 years old
on Sunday - knowing she had to head back to Portland on Monday morning - her car alarm went off again at 3 in the morning.
she come running out of her room screaming "M---- F---- SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE"
She grabbed the Ruger 10/22 M1 carbine conversion as she runs out the back door
at that time, we kept a 10/22 at each door loaded with CCI Mini Mags
I sloooly get out of bed and grab a Ruger .357 - follow her out the door
I only reach the back porch and hear the crack of the Ruger - a pause - then a vicious female scream
" Die M---- F----" then 9 more round from the 10/22.
I get out to the parking pad and see her standing over one of those giant raccoons, flat on his back, twitching.
She tells me she got out to her car and sees this giant raccoon jumping down off her car - she shot it once - then it turned on her, stood up on it's hind legs and snarled - she took a step forward, screamed her battle cry and emptied the Ruger into it's chest at 10'
moral of this story - don't piss my daughter off or mess with her car!!!!
