Rabid Racoon!!!

I went to my cousins last weekend and I was getting out of the car. To my suprise there was a racoon running across the road, so I threw a ball at it to see what it would do, and it ran at it. It saw me and my cousins and started coming towards us, and thats when I figured out it was sick, so I went and grabbed my .22 and by the time I got back outside it was gone. The next day all of us kids went sledding and we found the coon in the back of a neighboors yard, we got my .22 again and shot it. I hit it but it still ran so I put the gun away, and ran after it with sticks. It was climbing till I hit it then I beat the hell out of it, till it died.
