I'm told a coon, and her litter of young are in the nose of the Exis trailer. Every year a coon sets up housekeeping there. That would not so bad, but they always chew up the wires.

I don’t like coons very much. They tear up a lot of things!

put a pile of Hot BBQ chips and a couple gallons of orange soda outside next fall they'll build a tar paper shack next to it and leave the trailer alone.

If it happens every year, why aren't you doing something to fix the problem and prevent the coons from getting in there?

You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.

I was out in the field at the time, the notion of putting a 22 bullet through the trailer is not a good one.

Good thing you weren't in your pajamas. Apparently if you are it's poaching.

I bottle fed some young ones, they still had their eyes shut. Crazy as a pet coon is right.
I named two Bonnie, and Clyde. Their offspring may still be about.

Coons eat whatever they can, sweet corn, shield corn, mulberry's, chickens. They get by.

Grape soda pop, orange soda pop, chitlins,grits, watermelon, fried chicken, pork rinds, bbq chips, any kind of fast food...then call it racist if you point out that diet will give you heart problems. Oh you were talking raccoons my bad
