Coonicides

c–nicides is what has happened when one finds more than one racc–n dead in or alongside the road in close proximity to each other. in the springtime after giving birth to a litter of racc–n pups, the mother racc–n might commit c–nicide after the father racc–n leaves the nest or den and goes to the ‘racc–n club’ with his pals. when young racc–ns are old enough to walk, they might stay around the dead mother racc–n and absent-mindedly become victims themselves. when two or more racc–ns commit c–nicide, it is usually because of a domestic dispute that neither party can resolve. a c–nicide or c–nicides can actually be the result of horseplay where racc–n buddies will dare or challenge each other to wait until the last second to move out of the way of an approaching vehicle.
why are all those raccon carc-sses all over the road like that? did you say ‘c–nicides’?

a c–nicide is the act of a racc–n taking his or her life by walking in front of a moving vehicle. being a largely nocturnal animal, a c–nicide will normally occur at night in rural setting or near an urban nature area where the racc–n species is prevalent. a daytime c–nicide is a rare occurrence. racc–ns like to ‘play chicken’ with vehicles, and normally wait until the approaching vehicle is almost upon them before ambling off the road.
see that carc-ss in the road up ahead? just another c–nicide…
