Bad News Chickens

This weekend a racoon jumps out of our chicken coop after slaughtering seven chickens and my beloved duck Blondie. What I don't understand is how come a wild animal such as a racoon would feel the need to tear apart multiple chickens without even attempting to eat one. Does he feel threatened? Is he trying to prove something? It's odd to me that this seemed like more than just a survival tool- Do racoons hunt as a hobby as well? Maybe they need day-glow orange jumpers. I've been listening to lots of DeVotchKa lately, any band with a legitimate position for a sousaphone seems pretty alright right now.
