Well it's not like I've not done it exactly like you show it, because I have. More than half will jump as soon as they get two feet up that tree. Now once they are large enough to keep up with mom, you can relocate them just about anywhere. Kind of neat how nature works. If they're big enough to keep up with mom, it's too late for her to come into heat again. If they're too small, she'll have another litter.

We relocate them to the CO 2 chamber in Ohio.

Vinke, we've relocated some female raccoons so many times that my wife knitted them little sweaters with their name on so we can tell them apart. ( Edith had quadruplets again this spring )

State law !


We skin our share of ringtails during season though...
A CO 2 tank doesn't effect fur value. How do you think most mink ranches dispatch mink ?

I, for one, would be glad if MI made it mandatory to euthanize all nuisance and depredating wildlife. No relocation.

Co2 is the way I would go , I dint know it was state law in Ohio , Its not here .i got chewed out by a CO last year because I was releasing coons , I just told him that's what the customer wants , it's funny how the DNR will take the side of the general public over the people who pays him in this state , the DNR gets paid buy lic sales here and gets no money from the state tax . To be honest it much more easy for me to just cut them loose , if I lived in the city I would have to use the co2 . We can't let them go there , I release out in the county and still get the DNR called out on me . Most likely it would better for the general population of coons if i did put them down . Don't get me started on raising mink if been wanting to get into mink farming for some time , wish they would let me coon farm . The state just outlawed pig farming , you can't raise pigs that have a straight tail

While I've been supportive of both sqs and K8 ( he just dropped a degree ) I have to easily give this one to sqs. I never ever want someone telling me that I have to take a perfectly healthy red fox and destroy him just because the government says so. Why the next thing you know the government will require mandatory health insurance. ( Now don't all you conservatives get all cocky. The one thing that Obama got right is that we are already paying for the uninsured )

In MI, raccoons can be released in the same county as they were captured....provided that you have written permission from the landowner. State Land or random country land is not a viable place to release (DNR will prosecute). If customers want animals relocated, then buy your own land. The economy is providing great opportunities....

You remove a raccoon or grey squirrel from a home, take it across town and release it, where do you think it goes ?
In a hollow tree and live happily ever after ? laugh

No, it goes right back to someone else's home and becomes their problem !
And it (can) be more difficult to catch, for you or anyone else...
You've just created a problem for someone that should have ended when you euthanized it...

Now, a fox that lived under someone's shed out back...I can see where it could be relocated.
Here in Ohio though, we are required to euthanize even them...

It's called habituation... A animal that learns to use human dwellings for shelter and rearing of young will obviously be quick to do it again if evicted, common sense would tell you that!

Have you taken a look at the study referenced by RF Wildlife, found at http://www.trapperman.com/forum/ubbthrea...tml#Post3095632 ? Some interesting reading in it.

Perhaps homes should be built to keep critters out.

I've written this more than once Dave; if every home were built like mine, our company would be in big trouble.

It is easy to blame the critter for getting into the home....
