Raccoon Fight

During this one and a half hours battle, the raccoons would go at it for a few minutes, than break. The raccoon with no tail would move back, sometimes disappearing in the tree, giving the appearance that he was leaving. The raccoon with the tail that was pinned down at the end of the branch would then slowly try to make his way out of a very dangerous spot to only meet fierce resistance from the no tail raccoon.
An hour and a half later, the battle ended and both raccoons went their separate ways. As far as I could tell, the only damage done was that most of the neighbourhood was rudely awakened in the wee hours of the morning by some serious raccoon screams.
