Not legal to do that. We cannot move and release wildlife without a department permit and there is no way the department is going to give out a permit to release some problem coons somewhere else.

WCOs can move them off premises for euthanasia. Not the general public though.

Kit, I'm glad your enjoying my business and job.  I use to catch 200+ coon a year and 300 beaver a year.  Keep up the good work and don't burn out.
JC.  :hello:

Another Coon today. I've pulled 4 Coons in 3 days from one of the spots I'm trapping at. It's amazing how many Coons exist in some of these high traffic urban areas.  :tup:

It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.

You may just be one person in this world. But you may be the world to just one person.

I've gotten a couple of big boar coons with fist-sized, bald, scarred patches on their backs here in Seattle lately (sorry I didn't think to take pictures).  Is this from fighting and is it an indicator of coon overpopulation?

  My guess would be getting rolled d under a car at 35 mph I hit one at about 35 and it rolled got up and ran  :dunno: it was with my truck but I felt a couple bounces under there
