Had a young coon yesterday in yard, tried to get him across drive into woods so dog wouldnt kil it. Lady in side by side saw, stopped, and caught it with bare hands and took to woods to release. Could not believe she came out of unbitten. And yes I am getting soft in old age. He was doing no harm so didn’t want to shoot him.opossoms don't do much to the trap but raccoons get really violent in there
