Title: Nuisance Call
Post by: Machias on June 24, 2011, 10:13:10 AM: Got a call yesterday on a mother coon and several babies. I wasn't able to call them back until this morning. They had decided to rent a trap and had already caught one of the babies and were going to do the job themselves. I asked "If you don't mind me asking what did you do with the baby?" Oh my husband took it out to Turnbull NWR and released it. :bash: Ma'am, first off your not supposed to relocate them, secondly if the folks in Turnbull find out you'll be in serious trouble and lastly you just condemend this little baby coon to a slow death. :bash: Oh we didn't think of that. :dunno:

This brings back memmories of the "sick balls coon" . It was a normal night of coon hunting with my step Bro (that now lives in N. Idaho) Struck a coon off this creek bottom we always hunt. Ended up treeing accrossed the creek in one of them HUGE Firs that has 12 inch through branches. Ended up spotting the coon about 20 tards uo. I kept trying to pop it from straigh below but kept missing so my step bro shot it from the other side of the creek. Never seen a coon so pissed, came down the tree straight at me (I was at the base of the tree :chuckle:) Hissing and growling and was gona eat my balls :chuckle: I emptied the clip (6 or so shots) as it was on its way down the tree , my step bro was laughing so hard. Always called that the "sick balls coon" Still talk s about that damn coon :chuckle: Oh how I miss those coon hunting nights :'(
