Anymore coons? or leads on the first mystery animal?

 

[beefy]

what a silly question!

no more "Stumpy" sightings tho.

Put a piece of tin foil in the raccoon trap. They love shiny things.

I must add, that my trap is better at catching chickens than raccoons.

[beefy]

is it just me or does that skunk kind of resemble Dennis Rodman?

 

[Wolf-Kim]

Is that another coon down?

Are you sure that you don't want to send a coonskin to me? I sure would like it for this...............

Imagine a family of coons waking up in their tree home and the Daddy coon asking his wife and children, "How about a chicken dinner To Go"? The kids starting to chant, "I get the Drum stick, I get the Drum stick"!!!!! Then they starting through the woods in single file. Daddy Coon first, the 6 kids in between with Mommy Coon behind. They reach the coop door and start trying to get through the wire when the moon comes out from behind the clouds. Momma Coon looks up in for no reason at all. Then she screams, "A COONSKIN"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They all freeze and look up at the Coonskin that's hanging on the coop wall in the moonlight. Daddy says, "Let's....... um........ Let's........... Go to the creek for dinner instead. This is WAY too risky for my families hides". So they get out of there as fast as their chubby legs can carry them down to the creek below the house.

Funny story 'Eh?

This entire thread is AWESOME.

We've had the usual go-rounds with raccoons but nothing like this (at least not yet). As for the hides - a friend of ours suggested sewing some tiny coonskin caps for the chickens to wear...

This is your full time job!
