WOW.... That's insane...... I definitely understand why you released it. It is completely absurd that any F&W official or even the secretary that works there would recommend relocating of all things a raccoon. I use opportunities like this to educate my children, something like" we keep these...
I know it was said but I'll say it again....
If you trap a predator, kill it.
Never ever relocate it, you may be giving someone else your problem, or worse introducing a disease into a area. It's illegal almost everywhere.
Only way to keep your birds safe is to have them completely secure
