Raccoons........ Population Density?

I am a bone-a-fide coon hater too. I lost 5 rows of corn to the rascals when we left for 3 days . My wife calls me jed clampit because im always shooting the shotgun off of the front porch at the varmits.
 
If you want to use a dog as a serious coon deterrent get two dogs so they can tag team. A full grown boar coon can seriously injure a large dog and kill a medium size dog and eat a small one.

I'd do the dog thing, but dogs running at large are a pet peeve of mine. Can't afford to fence in my property, so the dogs get a 70' run. They don't stay out overnight, but I still have problems.

Out here, a dog a large is usually shot on sight anyhoodles.
 
I've seen 2 coons on my property this summer and both are now dead. But not before the mama coon got 30 of my half-grown chicks and broke into another coop after my next to oldest bunch of hens.

I've left a trap set every night since.
 
Yep, lots of coons here. trapped and killed many here. Going to trap them year round. Great horn owls will take half grown ones.

In the city, I noticed ALOT of coons and possums on the shoulder, dead. Huge buggers too! They love to raid in garbage cans, make homes in abandoned or foreclosed homes, junk cars and multiply like no other like rats!
