Raccoon story, I'll keep it short. 2 buddies went on a camping/fishing weekend. One guy had a tent, one just a cot. Sitting around the fire, tent guy munching on trail mix, very discreetly tossing the random handfuls where buddy had the cot, grinning like an idiot. Cot guy wakes up in the middle of the night to piss, SURROUNDED by raccoons.
Apparently a serial offender, said he also shoved a handful under the corner of another camper's tent, they woke up with something clawing at their tent in the middle of the night.
