Coon Down
« on: January 28, 2017, 08:52:52 PM »
I have a family of coons that have been tearing up my lawn for weeks. I have trapped a them for a friend and he never comes over to get them so I have to release them. It is 8:48 and I have one in the trap if anyone wants him. I live in Enumclaw near 400th. If I don't have a taker before 10 he will be released  to terrorize me some more.

Shoot it ! Why be a fool to release it to deal with a trap smart coon ? Do you and all your neighbors a favor and just pop him in the head with a .22 and be done ! If you release him he will be 100 x harder to catch he's a nuisance and a problem  :twocents:

Folks, you may think this is heavy handed but it is illegal to transport live wildlife. I am going to remove any suggestion that involves breaking the law.
