But raccoons are our cuddly forest friends.

Pretty pathetic when a full grown human being WITH A DOG gets her ass kicked by a raccoon.

She would've called 911 about the mauling but was afraid of protests for reporting an attack by "%#*ing raccoons!".

Better her dog stirred up a racoon nest than a hornet nest. You can fight the raccoons, all you can do with the hornets is run for your life.

I have no idea what you're talking about so here's a picture of a wolverine with a yooper on his butt.

You obviously don't understand raccoons well. I have encountered some that are pretty bad-ASSED. Last summer on a 118 degree day here in south TX, I was lucky to come away unscathed with TWO dogs with me.

I don't hunt them anymore so I take them over to the state land and turn them loose.
Woodchucks are another story.

But she'll be prepared next time. "Well, we got some bear mace," she said, with a laugh. This may have been her wake up call from her guardian angel. Raccoons this time, next time it may be something bigger and badder. She might consider some lead as well.

Exactly right. I live in WA and they just showed the story on the news....there was more than one racoon that attacked her. Her dog did save her from further harm. She did seem a bit more calm than I would have been. But I also wouldn’t run in the area she was running in...with or without a dog.

I love that story ... still makes me laugh.
But then again, one of my kids was at great falls recently, snoozing in a hammock, and a coon jumped into the hammock with him, for a little kiss and a cuddle.
Guess how many rabies shots my kid got.
Doc said, “That is not normal coon behavior - you get the shots!”

My guess is she had her dog off the lease and that was the start of her problems. People who have their animals off leash in a public park are asking for problems. She could have easily done her best Sir Robin impression and ran away.
