Raccoon vs Coyote

[Flashlight237]

Okay, so apparently raccoons are tougher fighters than what their profile made them out to be, as there had been various fights of raccoons against coyotes on Youtube, with varying results too. Quite frankly, I wanna see how they'd actually hold up in a Vs debate. Both combatants start 5 meters away, but otherwise, it's full-on SBA. Here are their profiles.:

A coyote's more than double the weight of a raccoon and has evolved for hunting while the raccoon is more of a jack of all trades. This is a stomp, or at least a match so uninterestingly straightforward it isn't worth concluding.

I don't think it's a stomp. Raccoons are just straight-up aggressive, I mean just two scared off a coyote:

And one raccoon (a commenter believed he weighed 35 lbs) managed to hold its own against a coyote:

A predator has to be incredibly cautious of wounds in the wild- any wounds. Because they can get infected, and that's basically death. Look at the bottom video. The coyote wasn't actively hunting and the raccoon didn't even fight him, he just huffed and puffed and scared him off. This would absolutely not translate to any chance of winning a fight, outside of just getting really lucky. As for the second one, they did engage him, but there were two of them, and once again they just scared him off.

Being "aggressive" doesn't mean you're gonna kill an animal that's thrice as big as you, it just means you're gonna scare it off if you have the balls.
