Chasing Raccoons Through the Ozarks by Muleback
The tradition of chasing raccoons on muleback through the Ozark Mountains is alive and well for this Arkansas hunter

There's a rich and somewhat bizarre tradition of Ozark hunters chasing raccoons with their mules, although it's not widely practiced these days. But Clay Newcomb isn't the historical re-enactor type, and he's not trying to revive the glory days of Ozark coon hunting. It's admittedly a nod to tradition, but he mostly hunts with his mule because he's always wanted a mule, and he's always hunted racoons, so he might as well combine the two.
