The 40-pound raccoon
Article Abstract:
A hunter recalls a raccoon hunting trip where he thought he caught two raccoons over 40 pounds. After weighing them, however, he discovered that the animals weighed only 26-28 pounds. Like in other sports, the 40-pound raccoon is a myth which only entices hunters to spend huge amounts of money on coon dogs and hunting equipment.
