I was surprised to see a big male Raccoon chase down and attack a male feral cat on the trail camera in the "jungle" behind the Backyard. It looked and sounded bad for the cat as the Raccoon overtook it from behind. Filmed with Campark T100 Trail camera at: shrsl.com/3nk7d

Looks like a miniature tiger vs miniature bear fight!
It does
With a miniature camera
Looks like we don't see the fight
@@nolanr1400 had to make it til tok friendly lol
It basically is.
1:01 Armadillo was like “I want no parts of that shit!”
Cat came back and said “ I ain’t letting you slide like dat” 💀
Man, I’ve become addicted to trail cam videos over the past year or so. It’s so interesting to see what goes on in nature not too far away from our homes where we’re seemingly absent. Thank you for this 🙏🏾
Welcome aboard! BB
FERAL CATS IS CAT DOMESTIC ONLY THAT THEY LET THEM OUT TO GO TO THE BATHROOM AND THEN THEY COME BACK TO THEIR OWNER, A GIRL OR A GRANDMOTHER
Addiction is a serious thing.. get help
Check out my humble channel, I made them for fun and for friends and neighbors, lots of bears interacting with other animals
@Edward Decker Cool!
I lived in an old house in a salt marsh for a year in my 20's and had a problem with raccoons getting on my porch and eating my 140lb dog's food in front of him.
...Which was very embarrassing for both of us.
That ended the night the semi-wild, part domestic/part bobcat that I tried to adopt stumbled across the scene and dove into the three raccoons from the top railing of the porch.
The work that cat put in and the look on his face while he did it made me seriously rethink all my attempts at petting him...
😂
haha i hope you still have that cat
😂
I have a 15 lb devil dog that would never allow such things lol. Gotta love jack Russell. And he's mixed with dachshund to add insult to injury 🤣
I really want serval-cat mix or bobcat-cat mix. That would be very strong and not a big deal when against fox or raccoon
A racoon will usually whoop a cat. But not always. One thing to consider is that all these animals learn to fight by experience. Some have a great advantage just because they have done so much more fighting than their opponent. I will never forget my kid's favorite cat "tiffany" She was an average sized white female cat. But Tiffany was the baddest fighting machine cat Ive ever seen. I saw her destroy huge male cats, racoons, large dogs. One time she fought 3 dogs at once and they all ran away yelping. She could scratch you 5 times in one second and her bites took chunks of skin away. She even attacked people sometimes if you were mean to her Kittens. I never saw her lose a fight or even back down from one.
What happened to Tiffany? Is she still alive?
Amazinh
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I bet she destroyed wolverines and honey badgers too.
Week after moving, outside tree cat trolling my sweet HelloKitty cat 3AM i didnt know all this and faster than instinct n she could think to attack me, her lightening zip fast claws sunk into my face barely missing my eyes she accidently misdirected her aggression toward tree cat onto me. I had to rip her and her claws off my face..she lacerated me very grossly n badly..wedderspoon manuka honey *KFACTOR 16* almost invisible scar..cop stopped me in walmart to ask me what happened to my face. Even household cats are fast man😂 im not worried about that video feral cat bcuz it engraved its intitials on raccoons balls ! For sure😂no doubt😂

As the former father of a late raccoon and cat, I can tell you first hand that raccoons have quite a bit of fear of and respect for cats. A raccoon is tough as nails and will fight to the death and they'll often win against any other animal, including large dogs and even people if provoked. But a raccoon will back off from a swinging cat slapping them in the face with claws-a-blazing. We take cats for granted but they're an amazing animal capable of incredible feats. They are, after all, small scale lions, tigers and leopards.
Raccoons killing humans?! HAHA…I know you like them and all, but GTFOH…I’ll punt one of those fuckers…I have a big property and see the, all the time. I have a couple feral cats I feed and the raccoons and the cats chill and get along….occasionally in the middle of the night I’ll hear one of those cats raising hell though. They are Siberian Forrest cats and are badass…the female, Momma Dukes, is almost 30lbs….she had kittens 2 yrs ago and a fox kept getting near the shed where she and her babies were and that Fox was found dead the next morning
PATTERDALE TERRIER.
@@mr.smithgnrsmith7808 He said they will "often win." He did NOT say "kill." "Win" in the case of humans and large dogs obviously does not mean "kill": it means that the other party runs first and the raccoon succeeds in defending its territory.
My observation is a cat can usually handle twice his weight in dog. It's hard to understand this until you've tried to bathe a 9 lb cat. It would take both my wife and myself to handle our Himalayan. At one point I let down my guard and my cat buried his fangs all the way to the gum line in my arm. Nice kitty, but water freaked him out. A racoon sized dog wouldn't stand a chance.
@@viper2148 I agree. Try a 20 pounder or more that's not fat and lazy.
We had a huge Tom cat. He was 16 inches at the shoulder and almost 5 ft long including his tail. I could only think he had some rag doll breed in his genes. That’s what the vet thought. The vet loved seeing him as he was “by far” the biggest domestic cat the vet had ever seen. The vet at that time was about 30 years into his career. The cat would get in scraps with whatever was out there. It was long before any digital cameras. Sometimes the wounds would abscess so we would take him in as well as for his shots. He had a knack for simply killing the raccoons he came across. He actively sought them out, chased them down and annihilated them! They would get the occasional bite on him of course, but he didn’t care. His claws would leave wounds an inch deep. He wouldn’t eat them though. He ate basically everything else he killed, but not raccoons. He seemed to like rabbits especially.
All of that, yet he would come home each night, often to a bath that he sought out. Would walk into the tub and meow until we cleaned him. He slept with us, or the nieces and nephews when they came over. Even babies would lay against/on him and sleep and he would just purr. Gentle with everyone except my brother who used to torment him. They had an understanding, it seems.
People would come to visit and some were scared of him and his size!!! Hahaha. He was intimidating because he had scruffy ears from his rough lifestyle.
His kittens were normal though. We spay and neutered the offspring and kept one female for kittens. Feral cats have a rather high mortality rate until they are a few years old. Owls, coyotes, bobcats, possibly the bears and cougars would get one. The Tom cat had put a few bears on the run that came into the yard including a huge old boar Grizzly that got too close when we were out fencing. The cats were and are still some of the best rodent controls. We live in Alberta Canada so we don’t have rats, fortunately, but mice & voles are common of course.
That cat lived 14 years and 13 3/4s were really perfect for his tastes, but then he went downhill fast. He survived a rattlesnake bite, but never fully recovered. He lounged in the house until one day we found him sleeping in the sun for his last time. He was still curled up so just went in his sleep. No apparent pain. That was a tough loss. He was the closest thing to a dog I ever had, except our dogs of course, and he was far from typical fir any cat we knew, including his offspring,,,,,. One of a kind,,,,,
Abscess are a big problem with cats as they can kill them, always take them serious. Home treatments can seem effective but the tend to come back. Antibiotics are almost always required.
The Ragdoll breed is named so, because it will go limp like a ragdoll in your arms. It is NOT AN OUTDOOR breed.
@@kristenslice561 - You need to do a little more research. They will go limp, but they do just fine outdoors. I will take the advice of a veterinarian with well over 30 years experience before he retired. His assistants and the vet who treated my cat in his last year or so also felt the same. He likely had some domestic tabby in him as well.
Dang! Sounds more like a pocket panther than a big Tom cat 🤣
@@TSUNAMI-MAMI - kept the coyotes out of the yard. The dogs at the time weren’t smart enough. The dogs were good herders or they would have become someone’s pets! Haha
Judging by how chunky and well-fed the cat looked, I'd guess he's a pretty accomplished predator/killer. No surprise he was easily able to hold his own against a raccoon. And let's not forget who has the sharper claws.
So many rats and mice in the "jungle" he lives in. He's survived two years now! BB

I once had a huge outside tom named Bob, because of his bobtail. He was quite friendly with humans but didn't brook any other company in his territory. I saw him fight and win against dogs, raccoons, and possums, often his size or bigger. That cat was an absolute unit and had the battle scars to prove it.
My aunt had a tom that was truly big. Sam. He was tough in the extreme. Lived a long time through their multiple moves. I was told not to pet him because he didn't like it. As a young boy, of course I tried. He would let me pet him for several seconds and then he would change. Mostly I learned not to try. Gave him space and watched him. He was known to put much bigger dogs(of all kinds) to flight. All black with an attitude. He would lose weight in the spring because he would eat too many lizards. Beautiful animal that I always respected. He was mostly Uncle Paul's cat & had his own space on the living room couch (Uncle sat in a chair), which we all yielded to him when he came in. But then, Uncle was a different type of man. He lied about his age to go to war at 15. Grandpa went at 17. Apparently real men cause real things to happen, even in what they considered lesser animals. Uncle & Grandpa didn't always agree, but even when they were older, you didn't want to stop them or interfere. They were fast. They lived hard and expected a lot from those around. Sam may have been a tom, but he seemed to command respect. Life lessons expressed concisely as I know it.
I have a big 21lbs unfixed male white cat that's tough as nails.
I have a 3 stray cat that was absolutely HUGE. Almost 2 times bigger than average cat. My biggest cat was my black cat, the second one have a marking pattern like raccoon and the third one was brown black. They were friends and raised together since they was kitten, I get them when they're already adult. But I even have seen them dealing with fox and chase away
Absolute UNIT?
LOVE IT.
down yonder on the side of the barn that grows moss there's an ol' billy bobcat because of his bobtail. i tells ya billy bob dont take no guff from the other animal folks pokin their noses round his stack of dirt.
2:39 the rat was like: dont mind me just walking around here 💀💀💀💀
I have been taking care of a feral cat for 2 years, veterinary care and food. He won't come inside but he finally let's me pet him and groom him for hairballs. I saw him attack a racoon in my driveway with unbelievable ferocity. Not a mark on him.
Feral cats are street fighters and know how to brawl.
Lol that they do
If you think raccoon can beat a cat then you're clueless
You are a rude jackass. It largely depends on the individual cat and the individual racoon. If I were you, I wouldn't call ANYONE clueless.
@@onlyskilledpeople9562 only small breed cats. My main coon put the beats on a racoon
Nice. Narration was on point, too. Methinks that the feral cat wouldn't survive an encounter with that bobcat, though.
Feral cats and raccoons should probably just avoid each other. They are too closely matched it seems. If anything, this raccoon seemed to get the worst of it, and it had attacked the cat from behind.
The cat made no noise. Coon was in trouble.
Raccoon really only has its mouth, while the cat can’t kick with its legs and bite. My money is on the cat
@@myrtlelittle4130 you said it aha if the cat got hurt you would have heard it, I'd put money on the fact the cat was limping from something else
That was a really young raccoon. A larger raccoon would easily overpower that cat. Hound dogs have trouble with raccoons. But this is a good example of why cats shouldn't be underestimated, they can be vicious.
Maine coons are really the only cats that can step to an adult raccoon toe to toe cats a usually just a bit smaller and pack less of a punch overall but they definitely have the punch to drive one away
This is really a great video! Glad they were both okay. Awesome interaction to be able to observe. Take care, Char😊
observe what interaction? lol everything was behind camera
That feral cat would run like hell if he saw the bobcat
If Disney ever grew up and went back to old school, wholesome documentaries on wildlife and other educational programming, which they will probably never do again, I would vote they pick you for the narrator. Well done!
That armadillo that just snuck across was like the they're gone book it
Thank you for sharing this type of videos . Are very interesting for various reasons . Thanks again for desire to bring this scenes that are hardly seen from a game camera .
Now this here is what I’m talking about!!! Thanks for the great video. Keep ‘em coming
I've got a stray cat and raccoons that hang around my house. The cat dominates the raccoons every time.
Me too. Also one dead bobcat that picked the wrong fight.
The raccoons in your area are more interested in the trash then. Wild raccoons will eat cats if they can corner one.
@@myrtlelittle4130 I call bullshit on that. Domestic cats have such weak canines that they can’t even kill eachother let alone a huge ass bobcat with proportionally larger skull fangs and longer jaws. Also keep in mind the bobcat isn’t larger in terms of size alone but also in terms of proportions. In other words a small domestic cat sized bobcat is still stronger and more dangerous than a domestic cat. Bobs have larger paws compared to their body as well and they typically hunt prey larger than themselves. Domesticated cats can only hunt small critters. And no I don’t want to hear your story about how your cat took down a cassowary I’ve heard plenty of those crazy delusional cat lady stories.
@@lemongrab6173 haha Imagine i have seen a site thinking that a domestic cat is pound for pound stronger than a lion or a tiger… that’s bullshit, both of them kill prey bigger than themselves like adult cattles while many cats can’t even kill rabbits or smaller rats
I know Racoons can be fierce, but a Feral Cat will tear you a new asshole.
RIGHT! I sleep in the woods with feral cats on guard and even when they're being nice it hurts. I think I have four assholes now.
Lol
A Feral or Alley Cat is always very dangerous and Racoons know it. That Racoon learned it's lesson the hard way.
Notice how the Cat just walked away unworried and confident, the Racoon tried it and got a good beat down. 👊🏼😼👍🏻
Wouldnt bet on it. If the raccoon gets one good bite in would severely injure the cat. Raccoon has the stronger bite with bigger sharper teeth. The cat has sharper claws but the raccoon has thicker skin.
Especially if the cat is cornered.
@@roastkingasaurus depends on the species of cat. Some cats can weigh 20 to 30 pounds. And can put it in on a racoon.
@@starone2737 the average Siberian tiger weighs 500 lbs. And would crush everybody. But this was about the average house cat
Superbrawl 92’!
Yes Felis Catus is pound for pound one of the most Ferocious animals on the planet. Their natural abilities are without question, and are a joy to behold in their play, and witnessed taking down of wild jackrabbits to feed their young when they needed further nutritional supplementation for their young. Once leaving an exactly sagittal sectioned half the rabbit remaining as if cut by a band saw to be seen at our front doorstep to finish later. She; Pugg, was one of our most incredible cats that ever shared her life with us. She was a short very well propositioned bob tailed longer rear legged dark grey green black tiger stripped cat who had several litters when she was alive with us. I think fondly think of her often, for no animal regardless of size entered our area without her permission, she was such a joy to our family and so lovingly remembered… .
Thank you for this showing this footage. I saw how sure this cat was when allowing the Raccon to catch up to it, and was most telling, I caught that little bit, like it wasn’t really afraid but moving for a more open area to free up do business.
That cat was lucky. My 3 yr male cat didn't survive it's fight with a raccoon. The racoon ripped my cat's throat open.
That's sad! I agree with you. Raccoons are tough creatures, and they can be dangerous. I've even seen videos of juvenile cougars struggling to kill them. They can fight back hard against both cats and dogs, and they usually grow bigger than cats. They're equipped with sharp teeth, and I once heard a narrator explain some have learned to wrestle and drown dogs in ponds. There was a video on TH-cam (IDK if it's still on here) where a guy got three dogs to tear into a raccoon. It was squealing in terror cause they were pulling from three different directions, and the duration of the raccoon to still live stunned me. I once saw one coming down the block and I went in the street around cars to avoid it. Anyway, I agree with you.
PS: I found the video. It's still on TH-cam.
Cruel raccoon, I don't like them!!
I hate raccoons
Maybe you should have learned to keep your cat inside. Ingrate.
Awww im so sorry about your kitty..he got healed up in heaven hes not suffering anymore
Thanks for sharing! This was fascinating.
I'm surprised to only hear the raccoon and not the cat in the fight. When I hear ferrel cat's fight in the city, I can sometimes here them when I'm inside the house.
This cat was not even disturbed, just went about his business of winning. Coon lost. Cat against cat is loud and vicious in a close match.
@@myrtlelittle4130 It's like two tasmanian devils going at it.
Because cat was beating the s*** out of raccoon
@@rockysoft2227 Usually you hear the cat screaming during a fight.
I was feeding feral cats up here two winters ago and up until the lockdowns in Pennsylvania in 2020 and a huge raccoon would show up and eat the cat food and i think the cats would avoid this raccoon because it was huge. I watch the raccon wisperer on youtube and when it's warm he gets 20+ raccons and they eat from his hand in Nova Scotia, this Bobcat was beautiful and thanks for sharing this video.
I love James the raccoon whisperer as well!
cats can hunt... no need to feed them. even more so because they are invasive
You are part of the problem. Feral cats need to be removed, and fertiized
It’s how feral cats get rabies. Don’t feed them
It should be a 500 thousand dollar fine for feeding feral cats. All it does is create more problems for all other native wildlife.
Kitty wasn't too worried if you listen closely towards the end of the scrap,you'll hear him hissing. I believe that cat gave as good as he got.
lol he almost died
@@jaybanks2709 u wish 😎
If you've ever seen a cat fight another cat, then you know how battle-ready they are. They're Jiu-Jitsu masters and incredible contortionists. They can fling in all directs with split second timing. It's incredible to watch and very scary. Frankly, I'd rather deal with a raccoon than a cat, any day!
Idk, the cat could shred you, but the raccoon might actually be able to take a finger off...
The raccoon has the advantage in biting, but raccoon claws are designed for climbing while cat claws are meant to hold and slice flesh. Their curvature allows them to dig in deeper as they’re slicing. Plus cats have very loose skin and are so flexible that they can twist while in the grip of another animal and inflict some nasty cuts.
Many animals that kill cats end up getting in a fight they’ll remember for the rest of their lives. Most of the time it’s better for them just to find a different meal. Protecting young is about the only time they’ll push the matter.
@@philsmith2444 I think my cat has been in the woods outback a few times and he doesn't seem to have ever been wounded. I think unless an animal (like a cat) walks into the territory of a coon's babies, they will generally ignore each other. I hope so; that's how it seems to me, anyways.
@@alexandraasbury9974 I have one who hates raccoons and he’ll smack them when he sees them. They’ve never done anything.

Great vid. I live in the woods and raccoons show little fear of me but when my little female cat comes up they pretty much take off. She’s a feisty thing that has known these woods for 8 years ..... and survived .... so far !

1:02 Hey that's Terry the Teleporting Armadillo, what's up! Everybody say 👋'Hey what's up Terry!'
I had a feral silver tabby that we called Barbie. She was found hanging from a barb wire fence emaciated and close to death with her tail practically cut off hence the name Barbie. She was completely wild when we adopted her. I was only 8 at the time but I knew she was special very quickly. She would climb trees with me and was always just one branch ahead of me staring down on me and making sure I was OK. She would hoard all of my favorite Legos and hide them in the pillow where she slept by my bed. As I got older and snuck out to keg parties on the rail road tracks over 3 miles away I would catch glimpses of her stalking me in the distance, always keeping an eye on me and making sure I was OK. Without fail, everything time I came home after a party she was waiting at my outside window, staring at me with those knowing eyes to be let in to sleep next to me on her uncomfortable, Lego ridden pillow..😆
Wow man that's awesome it reminds me of the exact thing that would happen to me here in independence Missouri but mine situation was with an old German shorthaired retriever dog named babe.that old dog had over 13 litters of pups an lived to be 15yrs old before she was hit but some awhole that just moved in down the way from us .I'd come home from a bonfire party or from drinking at the river with our school classes most everyone was there always that was the good ole mid 80s an I'd come home trying to be as quiet as I could as not to wake my mom or dad an there's be old babe waiting on me or my brother to stumble home from a night of Hank Jr fighting _ucking and just having a typical independence weekend night I miss that dog an I miss being young.thanks for reminding me brother

Interesting video - old biologist here. 2 weeks ago in SAn Fernando Valley, L.A. was walking our little chihuahua on sidewalk ( 9:00 pm) when a huge great horned owl flew only 4 feet above my head. The owl landed in a tree across the street. I growled, waved my arms - the owl just sat there. So now - very careful at nighttime.
what do you mean you growled?
it feels so good seeing what could have been a imprisoned house cat, to a cat with freedom
I feed a couple feral cats and a couple racoons on my front porch and have 3 cats of my own, 2 of them that I rescued. The cats and racoons usually just keep a few feet distance with neither showing any sign of concern or aggression but a could nights ago we saw a coon and one of my cats eating together with their heads right next to each other. I don't think for a minute though that an average house cat could defeat a pissed off racoon.
Funny, I had some raccoons that used to get into my lanai where my cat is and for the most part they left each other alone. I would be cautious about feeding wild animals though since you have cats.
A house cat would kill a raccoon 😂😩
1:01 "Don't mind me... just an Armadillo passing by... hehe"
Thank you for your informative wildlife videos.
The feralHousecat that has adopted me has chased several raccoons up trees, then came to find me next door at my parents' house, led us to the trees, Very proud of herself. This morning, a baby fox (1 of 4 roaming VERY close to everything).... I grabbed my wildlife-settup camera, some OC spray in case, since we have a lot of rabies right now here. I went to see if I could get any shots, she came with me, started following it's sent. There are times I wonder we should have nicknamed her Lassie! ;-)
😂😂😂😂 the raccoon was like , lemme get that lmao!
@1:01 the armadillo was like, F this I'm out.
That possum at 1:02 is saying, "I don't want any part of this!"
Well, the feral cat is tough and may fight a raccoon, but it could no way stand up to a bobcat...
A feral that hangs around my place killed a bobcat. Big cat, the bobcat only had about five pounds more weight.
(I did weigh the remains).
@@myrtlelittle4130 Are you serious??? That's one of the most extreme things i ever heard!!! I always perceived the bobcat as insanely powerful. I saw on the news an old American couple had their two pitbulls mauled by a bobcat, one dog had to get alot of stitches. Never knew a feral kitty could do that to a bobcat.
@@thejourney8071 I have old print photos of the mess. The feral cat moved much faster and very flexible body moves gave an advantage. The claw gashes were severe before he got to the Bobcat's throat.
@@myrtlelittle4130 Well I guess anything goes with animals. I'm from the island of Trinidad and there's only small animals here really. I know cats are tough but...even cats stay away from mongoose here, and cats are bigger. I played it out in my head that a bobcat could kill a mongoose in seconds but a cat can't...
@@myrtlelittle4130 I'm having a hard time buying this. Maybe if the bobcat was very old and sick or a juvenile and the cat was a tomcat in his prime.
That’ll teach that raccoon some respect for a very dangerous animal. The bite of a cat, domestic or feral, is such a toxic swamp that it kills most small animals even if they get away and, in larger animals, get so infected it can be quite debilitating.
a raccoon could have killed it
I know a girl that got badly bitten nearly through her hand by a feral cat. She went to the ER and got it cleaned and stitched and it still got infected.
A lot of people underestimate a cat's bite just because they are small.
@@klyzer5725 a feral cat is much worse they are invasive
but a raccoon is much more intelligent and is more stealthy is a better climber and has opposable thumbs and raccoons are more likely to eat cats and grow much bigger on average
@@jaybanks2709 Racoons seem dumb about avoiding getting run over by cars here in Utah. Cats seem to fare better.
This same thing happened years ago to our male cat. A raccoon attacked it at night and dislocated our cats hip. He walked with a permanent limp for years. If he jumped off the couch it would pop back in. But eventually pop back out. I don't know why coons go for the hip but they do
From what I have witnessed, raccoons do not attack cats face to face. They run around the cat and attack from the rear.
That’s one tough kitty! When they are just chilling on your lap purring while you watch TV or going nuts over catnip, it’s easy to underestimate just how much punch they can pack. Probably surprised the hell out of that raccoon too. I really don’t think it would go the same with a bobcat. My money would be on the bobcat. They have the same weaponry but they are much bigger and heavier.
Exactly, a bobcat is a bigger cat so if they're equal on a lb for lb basis the bobcat wins due to more lbs.
Maybe the feral cat and bobcat could just mate and not fight then produce some cool hybrids.
I've seen tomcats walk into 10+ racoons and scatter them all.....

that feral cat isn't scared of the raccoon but you better believe it avoids an adult bobcat. There's a Tom by my house that is easily 35 pounds, the females are much smaller but those tom bobcats that come around my house can take down a deer
Well, if you got Tom cats that can take down a deer come around you then might I suggest that you ‘scadadle’ out of there.
@@king-xerxus7040 - You may wish to work on your comprehension skills, bro! He said tom BOBCAT!
Raccoon- "Stay Away From My Water Dish!"
Few minutes later- "That cat was WAY faster than I thought, I don't even know how he got me on the side like this. Shit!"
😄👍
The rat be like " okay, bye guys nice seeing ya
Great,nice capture. Good to see they were both ok 👍🙂🙏
I can say from watching a cat I had, female, those critters are tougher than one would think.
Mine was territorial and as a regular house cat chased a full grown deer out of the yard. The only animal she allowed was the German shepherd I brought home as a puppy.
I watched an encounter on my front porch recently between a semi-feral tom cat and a raccoon. The raccoon came up to get some cat food. The semi-feral tomcat was growling and wailing loudly which is what made me come and look. His back was arched, his fur was puffed out, and he reached out and swatted the raccoon's backside three quick times. The racoon ignored him, so he did it again. Apparently second round of swats scored a hit, and the raccoon took off running across my front yard with the tom cat chasing him. His take off scattered the cat food all over the porch.
0:42 he was like u want rabies ill show u rabies 🤣🤣
The armadillo is like while you guys are fighting, I'll just check out what's on the menu.
I have a large male black cat named Tank & through my surveillance cameras I've seen him get in a few fights with raccoons & possums at night & they quickly retreat.
raccoons are no match for a healthy house cat
@@cottoncotton4191 a raccoon will kill and even eat a house cat even dogs lose
@@jaybanks2709
A juvenile cat or Chihuahua dog I believe but an adult cat is always a 50/50 & a large dog will always win against a raccoon.
My cat got in a fight with a raccoon. When the cat came home it had a raccoon claw stuck in its back. I wonder what happened to the raccoon as the cat was pretty damn tough.
Cats are gangsta. The cat gave that raccoon a run for its money. Imagine if it was just slightly bigger or a bobcat.
@@elhajjmalikel6266 lol no that was a young raccoon
The closed captioning for the frogs was awesome
this is exactly what the zombies in walking dead sound like
I grew up on a farm in Iowa.
We had so many cats living on our land that at best only 10% of them were tame enough to approach.
We would often leave table scraps ,along with any spare fish I would catch , up in the hayloft.
From time to time a raccoon would make a den in that loft and take some of the food left for the cats.... There were some major battles up there on occasion.
Greetings from Iowa.
Who usually won? I heard that raccoon/cat fights are a tossup
I've battled Raccoons for years(another story). MY money is on the Raccoon...Smart, Savvy, Creative, Strong, 5-"fingers" on each paw, teeth like razors...and the kicker, they can be as loving as a puppy or as ferocious as a mad dog.
Cats can be as affectionate as the most clingy dog and as ferocious as any wild animal as well lol.
Ugh
Nice job adding the narration.
Two tom cats feral or not fighting are a sight to behold. At a distance.
I wouldn't want to get in a fight with a raccoon. Those are mean critters when they get angry. Glad to see the feral cat made out alright. I figured he got killed. Those cats are tough.
raccoons are not good fighters the cat is faster and has more weapons
@@cottoncotton4191 Whatever you say, but I still wouldn't want to tangle with one.
Yep, having had pet coons they get mean. Had to let mine free. Can be nasty critters. And smart. Their little paws are like our hands and can do more than most creatures. It's almost like they are more closely related to the monkey. 🐒
@@JohnDoe-xl1ig
Agreed. I've got two outdoor cats and they weigh 25 pounds each.
@@JohnDoe-xl1ig Yeah, I e seen some big Coons. Almost 7 ft tall....😯
I have three rescue cats. They are all indoor cats as i don't want them hurt. They have climbing towers, scratch pads and they like to sleep on the couch. They get to eat grass that i grow just for them. They also get the healthy all natural dry food, no artificial colors or flavors. They seem happy and show that love everyday by sleeping next to me.
I've seen a bobcat meet a feral tomcat in a forest in PA. The bobcat went nuts. No more feral tomcat. It wasn't eaten, just killed. I got the sense it was a matter of food supply
Mini tiger Vs mini bear! 😂
I worked at an exotic animal rescue facility that had lions and tigers and some feral cats hung around and we feed them too. Then one day the kittens of the fetal cats started being killed and some of the grown feral cats as well. We had no idea what was happening. Then, one morning we found a full grown dead raccoon in the lion enclosure. It had gotten too close to the opening where we feed the lions and one if the males had to have reached out and clawed him and pulled it in. After that, no more cats were killed. It had to be the raccoon killing them until he was killed by one of the lions himself. Lions don't play.
Questionable.
Raccoons will kill kittens and eat them. I also lost a small kitten in the barn to a least weasel. I left the lights on and the momma cat killed the weasel protecting her kittens.
Male cats will kill male kittens also, not all will but I had to eliminate one feral male cat that would. It would also beat up the momma cat. Some male cats are vicious.
This was enlightening for me because I have had 20 rabbits in home made rabbitats for about 3 years. I’ve had a regular raccoon visitor that never bothered the rabbits. But feral cats have come into my yard in attempts to take baby bunnies. One succeeded because my porch screen had separated from its twining at one spot.
I’ve also had a 2 night coyote visit complete with the yip yip sounds, on the outside of my fence, but no rabbit casualties. At the time, I could hear that same vicious raccoon sound, so I concluded that a coyote caught a raccoon on those 2 nights. The sound was terrifying!
Their fighting sounds are pretty amazing! BB
The rabbits were wild or domestic?
can a feral cat take down an adult rabbit?
@@astraldrifter Absolutely, especially if it’s a male
@@astraldrifter I would be flabbergasted if a cat could not take down a male rabbit. One just held its own against a raccoon.
Armadillo says "I'm outta here!!!"
I'm pretty sure Mr. Feral knows that Mr. Bobcat would throw him out of the bar if he ever caught him in there again !!!
I remember years ago at my old house me and my brother was sitting on my porch smoking a cigarette at night and my brother went inside but I was still smoking but the whole time I felt something wasn't right so I go to flick my cigarette and about two feet in front of me was a racoon sitting real low staring at me. It was real big and I'm not a nature guy so I started calling my brother but he never came back outside. I stand up and it walked forward so i sat back down and then it slowly stepped on my porch and was sniffing all around me. I didn't know if i should run or what to do but it just kinda chilled on my porch with me for about five to ten minutes and then just strolled off. I was shook.
Big tomcats can be up to 20lbs of pure muscle. They can hold their own. The big stray tomcat that lived in my neighborhood once sent a 60+ pound lab mix running for the hills. Keep in mind, the dog initiated everything. Dog started it, cat won it.
I like seeing those yappy annoying little dogs charge cats, the cat proceeds to slash it once with it's claws, dog runs away yelping in pain. Lol
(I hate small dogs. Big dogs and cats for me).
I saw the one comment about how tough racoons are. Our neighbors dog used to kill several a year in their yard. As well as an occasional cat. Was an average 60 pound mix. I wouldn't let my dogs do any interactions in that rabies were out and about then. Great clip
TIL an angry racoon sounds just like an angry chihuahua 🤣
Raccoons are scrappy fighters! I live in the country and hear them fighting over the corn at night.
What kind of trail cam do you use? It has excellent night vision. Mine only records shadowy figures at night.
Armadillo: "Nope." 00:59
the mouse was was having a field day out there 😂
I raised a raccoon from a baby before her eyes were open when I had a rural dairy farm in Limestone, TN. The raccoon loved my dogs but hated my cats and would first go after their tails. They were all raised to be friendly, but she hated the cats and certain people. I'm so glad this feral cat wasn't killed. Love your videos and comments!! Keep them coming.
Thanks, good to here from you! BB
i think maybe just a territorial warning
You must be very naive, since Cats don't take shit from Racoons, especially fully grown feral or Alley Cats. The Cats always make the Racoons run off. Quite simply, Cats have way more weapons, their frontclaws, their back claws and their fangs, while Racoons just have a dog like Bite and that is it. Plus Cats are way more agile and truly vicious when cornered.
@@hailheaven4372 racoon has ba frickin rutal claws , but ya , cat a fast ass roll of barbwire
a cat would have no chance against a raccoon in a fight till the death a raccoon is way stronger than a cat has a bigger mouth with bigger teath the and has very strong arms .they are like tasmania devils when you make them make mad. I know this because I have handled and dealt with raccoons for 20 years there is no comparison with the streangth difference between these two animals.
This is fascinating!! It gave me some answers, too. I felt bad for the feral cat, but happy it looks like he's mended alright. He's pretty gutsy as he sprays at 4:15, after being attacked by the coon.😀Stay alive, little ones.
Opossum's like I better clear out before I'm next.
People underestimate Feral Cats! They have a bunch of claws and sharp ass Nasty Teeth.
We've just had a young female feral cat move in or in fairness I think it was us that moved in to her territory. We have lots of stray dogs the other side of the wall round our garden and we have lots of chickens that we've inherited from the owner of the place, but I seems she eats mainly geckos, rats and small birds that come to the chickens food. We are really hoping she has some kittens so it becomes a wild life documentary of our own. We watched one of your documentaries last night after talking at length about our Hope's for puss puss as is her name now. She looks less than a year but is solid not like cats I'm used to. Anyway I'm a dog person that used to hunt with them so having puss puss to watch hunt is a dream, shes so much better at it than my dogs. I've talked way to long I'm just excited about having a cat as a pet especially as shes so wild.
The raccoon probably had babies somewhere close by and that's why it went full attack mode because the cat would definitely have no problem eating a baby raccoon. Idk just a guess on why the raccoon got so aggressive.
Possible, that's just animal life. Feral cats will kill and eat baby cats too and the result is that the mother will cycle more quickly into heat so he can breed his own batch with her.
The coon was the only one making a noise. The cat emitted no sounds of fear or aggression. Coon lost the fight.
@@myrtlelittle4130 what caused the cat limp then ?
When I was a kid I saw Elvis in Phoenix. He threw his cape out & it was the biggest cat fight I ever saw!
I’ve seen video of a house cat fending off three coyotes. Cats are straight up gangsters.
