The Raccoon Princess and the Fox Prince: A Bayesian Parable

Looks pretty good, and perhaps they can team up with whoever was developing the Bayes game here.

However, there's an unsupported assumption here: we don't know that raccoons and fox have the same crime rate. Without data, I'd say that the larger animals probably have a larger rate, so it shifts more in that direction.
