OT Raccoons

There are some pellet guns that will kill them but I have been
reluctant to spend the $300 or so for one.


I have several shotguns and cases of shells, and live in the country, where
I could use them. Guess I'm just an old softy but I was going to release
them near the river g

They come back.
As an old softy myself I think of the Coyotes and buzzards that need a
meal.
The dogs a couple of house down once chased a bunch from under a
deck. They came down the fence to our yard and almost surrounded the
main squeeze who was reading a book in the back yard. I was given
double 00 satatus for raccoons after that.
They can kill your cat, do serious damage to your dog and if they
scratch or bite your kids (or you ) they are in for serious rabbies
shots.
