... she'll wake you up in the middle of the night!  Little buggers clanking and banging around the chickens at 3:30 in the morning....  Managed to take out three of the four, one of the youngsters got away.

I just wish it were December so the fur would be worth something.

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Time for some coon stew!   :tup:
Cooked up just like beef stew... I don't think anybody would notice.

Awe come on, there's gotta be another HuntWa BBQ coming up....  I was thinking of trying some racoon pepperoni or brats.

It seems too early and too warm for the fur to have gotten decent.  I seem to recall in the trapping class that they said prime racoon has a pretty small Nov-Dec-Jan window.  I might be wrong though.

Way to weed a few out!! Problem is too many huggers find it is nice to feed those pests cat food, etc.

Don't ever go down the 5-Mile Drive in Tacoma... they're ridiculous out there for that reason, hand fed by everyone.

Don't even need to bother with the treat, if you stop your car and roll down the window they literally come running at you lol.. (this was a cell phone pic with no zoom so they pretty much try to jump in your car with you)
