My compliments to all . MOSTLY this has been a civil discussion.

The dress was made beautifully, but the girl who ordered it was tall and stick thin, and that dress is meant for a more bobmshell type figure. The cut is very low, and an exterior corset is what keeps it on and up (my wedding dress had a built in corset to support a heavy gown, similar deal). The lower skirt is made for about 2 dozen leather belts that are woven to make the "lace" effect.

I have never seen a raccoon out in the daylight.

Count your blessings, then. When a coon is out in daylight here more often than not it's rabies. Creeps me out the way they move in that condition.

Rabid raccoons do have a funny walk!!! Reminds me of night of the living dead kind of walk...

Exactly! What a perfect way to describe it.

Keep in mind that *most* wild animals meet unpleasant ends of some sort or other -- whether they have been relocated or not. Very few wild animals get to quietly pass on of old age while lying snug in their beds.

I am under no illusion whatsoever that all animals die warm and snug of old age in their beds. It would be idiotic, uneducated and "rose colored glasses" of me to indeed think that. I am well aware of how brutal it is.
My point is that being relocated to a strange place with no knowledge of the lay of the land where they were just dumped, puts them at even more of a disadvantage for survival. Is this(survival) not the intent for people who "re-home"?
In the long run you have probably not done them any favors.

my method is controversial, but quick and painless. A .22 to the head on anything under 50 lbs ensures that the animal will not suffer at all.

.45 is the most common round in my house for 2 legged pests, but my wife prefers a .32 because of the recoil and noise problems.

Since you guys brought it up......

I, for one, do object to both fur and leather. Most anti-fur folks that I know do, actually. However, there ARE differences between most fur and most leather. For instance, most leather comes from animals that have already been killed for food. Thus, they are generally not specifically being killed for their skin (yes, I know, there are exceptions -- let's not quibble). OTOH, most fur animals are killed (and in many cases bred in the first place) specifically to gratify some person's fashion sense.

I personally would have no argument with a person who found a coon dead at the side of the road, or with a person who shot a dog which was in the process of attacking their dogs, and decided to make a fur cap out of it. In those cases the use of the furs have nothing to do with the deaths of the animals. I would have *some* argument with people who wear leather, since I generally disagree with killing animals for food in the first place when it isn't necessary to do so (note however that I do personally eat seafood), but vegetarianism is not the subject of this forum and I mention it only because y'all brought it up already. And I would have a LOT of argument with people who went out and killed furbearing animals just for the sake of their furs, since in almost all cases folks have no material need to wear fur.

Please, let's not start a long argument about this. This isn't the appropriate forum for it. I'm only posting this here to offer a counterpoint to the statements y'all have already made.

Good. Then you realize that these animals are not going to suffer good deaths whether you relocate them or not. Therefore, you can't really use the risk of a bad death to justify not moving them.

My point is that being relocated to a strange place with no knowledge of the lay of the land where they were just dumped, puts them at even more of a disadvantage for survival. Is this(survival) not the intent for people who "re-home"?

Remember, shooting that animal removes ALL chance of survival. A decreased chance is still a chance.

Please also note -- I'm not particularly in favor of relocation myself, in part because of the issue of disease spread. But the risk of death wouldn't sway me one way or the other, since a small chance at life is more than no chance.​
