lol- they do get possessive- -
one night i was on deck having a cigg, close to a spot where we throw our leftovers if we didn’t eat them up in time=- and all of a sudden i heard this weird sound, sounded like a bear huffing- then it changed- sounded like a bobcat- then another sound like chimps- then another sorta like mountain lion - I looked up ‘raccoons fighting’ on youtube- and lo and behold, they made nearly the same sounds-
Now i know what they sound like fighting- but wow, if i had been walking out of the woods after dark, after hunting, and heard that sound without knowing what it was, I’da been some freaked out- especially when it sounded like a bear and cougar-
I could hear them through the screen door - THICK glass
