Killing a raccoon is now a crime in Georgia? What about rats or flies?

State of New Jersey late 80's early 90's, a farmer beat a rat to death with a broom handle.
Farmer was charged with animal cruelty.
They had a circus over it.
Rat turned up positive for rabies, but that didn't matter to the prosecution.
Case thundered onward until public outcry got to an appropriate level.
Farmer was let go with the warning that they'd be "keeping an eye on him."

Do yo mean rats or RATS?
Come to think of it, same difference.

Raccoons are a game animal, and are protected as such.
They can be killed only during legal hunting season and hours, and in specified manners.
