Caught a raccoon last night in a cage. Anyone aware of a free service to come relocate it for me?

animal control? game warden?

1. Take the cage to the next neighborhood over.
2. Open the door.
3. Let the raccoon out.
4. ????
5. Profit.

or

1. Take the cage to the back door of nearest Chinese buffet.
2. Negotiation sales price.
3. Receive money.
4. Drive around to the front of the establishment and enter.
5. Use money to enjoy delicious Kung Pow "chicken".
6. ????
7. Profit (literally).

This is what I would do.

Hindsight is a beeyatch, but maybe you should have thought about this before setting the trap.

I did. If I can't find someone to do it for free, I plan to take it to the bayou/park a few miles from my house. Was hoping there was a city service that would do it for free while I was at work.

I certainly wasn't paying the pest company $125 for cage rental plus $125 per animal that was caught.

You need to put a .22 in the back of its skull. Or do the drowning thing in a garbage can.

State Law:

Nuisance Fur-bearing Animals


Landowners or their agents may take nuisance fur-bearing animals in any number by any means at any time on that person's land without the need for a hunting or trapping license. However, fur-bearing animals or their pelts taken for these purposes may not be retained or possessed by anyone at any time except licensed trappers during the lawful open season and possession periods.
Nuisance fur-bearing animals may be captured and relocated if the person has received authorization from the department and the owner of the property where the release will occur. A monthly report is required and must be submitted to the department on number and kind of fur-bearers captured, location of release site, name and address of person authorized to release.

Destroy where it lives. It will leave.

Great minds think alike. I suggest using a catapult.

I call the big one Bitey.

Btw, I've got a new neighbor too:



Explains some of the cones and **** I've been finding in the yard.

Give it to the guy that sells coon meat out of the back of his truck off 59 near Spindletap
