I went camping with some friends at Acadia National Park some years back and we were all sitting around a roaring campfire when we heard a noise behind us. We turned and saw the biggest, fattest raccoon I have ever seen in my entire life. I estimated it at about 50 lbs. I have never seen a wild animal so obese.
It looked at us insolently for a few seconds before ambling unconcernedly away.
A while later, a Park Ranger came by to tell us to reduce our fire, and when we told him about the raccoon, he knew exactly what raccoon we were talking about and referred to it as “The General”!
referred to it as “The General”!>>> That got a laugh.
