Once when racoon hunting a shot with a .22 brought the racoon out of
the tree into a creek. The most
stupid of the hunting dogs jumped in after it. The racoon damn near
killed the dog, which quickly
gave up and came back to our side of the creek. The racoon swam to
the other side and escaped in the
bushes. This was about 2:00 AM, so we weren't able to see it or follow it.

It didn't seem to be hurt too badly.

And why were you hunting raccoons?

Probably for the same reason you write ad copy.
The pelts are/were worth money.

Maybe. More likely, because it made him feel like a man.

Dunno, The only time I ever went "coon huntin'" it was just an excuse
for rednecks to sit by a fire in the woods and drink beer. I am not
sure anyone even had a gun (I didn't). I know we never saw a raccoon
but the dogs were barking at something.

I don't shoot critters.

You swerve and run over people and critters.
