This Coon Has Got To Go!!!

[Magneto]

I have a coon that is causing some trouble for me, and he needs to go. I assume it is legal in Indiana for me to trap and take him away and release him. I have two possible places to take him, not sure which he will end up at.

Legal schmeegle.
But don't quote me on that. Good luck.

So you plan on dumping the problem on someone else?

 

[woowoo2]

Pretty sure it is not legal to trap and release elsewhere.

trap it and have it for dinner!.....no purple

 

[Magneto]

The two places I had planned to possibly release it are not in the county. I did think of a place here in Floyd county and just happen to get to see the owner tomorrow so I will ask him.

Trap then gas it. (or if you are out of city limits, trap them shoot it.)

1 coon + 1 large traschan + 1 liter of ~90% rubbing alcohol + ~10 hours of the lid shut tight = a hard lump to dump out of the cage...

I was distracted by your avatar, what was you saying again????

Put the havaheart trap in the bottom of a stream or pond. Coons love water. Leave it for an hour and then go back and release it.

Pretty sure it is not legal to trap and release elsewhere.

As per DNR website,

a trapped raccoon must either be killed or released in the same county as it was trapped in.

Takes a solid 3 minutes to drown a coon.

Say hello to my Mexican friend?

Good thing I grew up in the country. My dad used his 12g double barrel to take care of all unwanted critters. Crows, coons, skunks, ground hogs-all were fare game.
I really must get out the the city...'sigh'

 

[olhorseman]

I've live trapped probably a dozen or more in my barn. They really like marshmellows, but not generic brand. Don't know why but they like name brand.

I don't see a problem with it. IANDNR.

Wait till summer, when it's like 100 degrees, and pour a 2 litre of Dr. Pepper out on road. It will work and you don't have to run them over.

Trap and shoot, those things are pests.

Trap and shoot, those things are pests.

yes they are! Last time I camped at Spring Mill State park they took over the campsite. I got so mad I chased one up a tree then threw a block of wood at it which came down and broke my windshield. I think I saw the bassturd grinning.
