We live inside city limits. Isn't there some sort of law against that?

I shot a raccoon in my pajamas once. How he got in my pajamas I'll never know.
Don't look at me like that.

You got that right. This guy has a travel trailer, a hot tub and a giant dog pen for one dog in the back yard. In the space between his house and his other neighbor is his boat, smoker in a trailer, trash cans and other miscellaneous stuff. The front yard is cluttered with various toys, bikes and basketballs. It drives me bananas!

What part of the raccoon is the front yard? I've heard of shooting them in the head or in the body before, but this is a first for the front yard.

We live inside city limits. Isn't there some sort of law against that?It's likely your city doesn't prohibit people living within their boundaries to go to work, even if done shortly after shooting a maverick racoon.:eddie:

The shooting doesn't bother me, I'd have prolly done it myself had I found the varmit first. but to leave it (not too far from my driveway) for my kids to see as we're leaving for school/work was somewhat insensitive.

Is his hillbilly dog too incompetent to kill the raccoon?? My avatar has taken out 7 squirrells. I'm sure he could handle a raccoon if one came across my yard.

My son is five and I told him that raccoons cause lots of trouble and it's okay to kill them, but to get rid of it after you kill it. Then he starts his 100 questions about anything he can think of to ask about raccoons and so on....

That's a horrible waste of a neighbor. Good eatin' on them thangs.
racoon = rabies city
Plus, it was wearing a mask. The neighbor probably thought he was going to get mugged.
In other racoon related news, I can't wait for the Over the Hedge movie.

Timeout girly girl.
We're talking coons here. Just so you know, I immediately attack - with malice aforethought - any coon who crosses my path.
They are destructive, pestilent, disease-bearing animals who ruin everything they get near. Corn? Forget it if you've got coons around. Dog food? Same thing. Hell, them little bastards have opened the fridge in my garage and taken out bacon and cabbage rolls before.
Coons, coyotes, skunks, possums, and armadillos are fair game - 365/24/7. Last weekend, my oldest son took my youngest son and his buddy who were spending the night coon hunting in the creeks that cross the back of the property. Left home at 9 pm, came in at midnight with 4 coons. I was ****ed. I said "you only killed 4" to which Drew replied "well dad, I had to let Blake and Jered have a couple shots."
Coons are not cute. They are filthy vermin. The only good coon is a dead coon. Period. End of story.

Dude, a raccoon would own most any dog. I've had coon trapped in a snare trap. I'd rather tangle with a tiger.

What Hamhock said.
A full grown coon will pretty much wipe the floor with any domestic animal. I have seen dogs like Norwegian Elkhounds and a Rottweiller kill a coon, but they're all tore to **** after they do. The coon definitely gets his licks in.

Nuh Uh. Cause he would get shot. I call it collateral damage. Anything within 5 feet of the coon is meat.

If'n raccoons are bad, then porcupines are really, really, really bad. Porkies do nothing but damage. And dogs are too stupid to know to stay away from them. The first time that is. After that, they know (usually). Nothing like seeing a dog with quills in his nose. Porkies will kill trees, eat pheasant eggs, wipe out gardens, .... Bad mojo them porcupines.

Very true. Except that there are like 100,000 coons to every 1 porcupine. I haven't seen a porky since I was elk hunting. I never see them on my place. Could be cause I've made them extinct though......

Speaking of pheasants, I went pheasant hunting in South Dakota last year for the first time. Officially hooked. Already got the plans in the works for November of this year. Death to porkies!

There have been a lot of porcupine spottings up in the North Central part of the state. I've heard Ponca City is begining to have a problem. Maybe you could take your .22 caliber pistol up North for a weekend and exterminate the hell out of 'em. :texan:

there's no varmit like the North American Beaver. They can chew your arm off if you aint careful.
A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two dead raccoons. The Stewardess looks at him and says, "I'm sorry, sir, only one carrion allowed per passenger."

Varmint killin' is legal in my city, but my town is still under 1000 people. We also have one of those Puma/Mtn Lion/Panthers running around eating cats and dogs. The Police Chief said just kill the damn thing, then call.
So far I've shot two possums, one coon and one armadillo that ****ed me off. The neighbor shot up his carport trying to kill a snake. He missed, but now his carport is more airy... oops ...
I've got a lab/shepherd mix that trashed a raccoon. There was blood everywhere, and none of it from my dog. She bit the crap out of the coon, then grabbed it by its tail and spun it like a helicopter (honest.) She let it go and it splattered up against a tree. Then did it again, and it hit the hog wire fence. The coon got under and left a blood trail in the grass. I'd put that dog up against any raccoon.

They can chew your arm off if you aint careful.A fella once told me his buddy went noodlin' on the Wa****a River, and stuck his hand into a beaver's den. The beaver opened his arm up from the wrist past the elbow. Needless, the guy popped up screaming, and they took him to the hospital. I suppose he lived, but I'm not sure...OUCH!:eddie:
