Caught a Coon...

[queenofmoab]

So, we put out a trap to catch feral cats and caught a coon. Does anyone have any advice on what to do with it? The wildlife control places that I have talked to charge 150 bucks to take it away. Animal control won't pick it up. I don't want to shoot it myself. Anyone want a Coon skin cap???

Fill garbage can up with water, place cage in can, wait 15 min. Or release it up in the mountains?

Utah Division of Wildlife should take care of it.

Put in the garbage can of someone you really don't like. (Alive that is)

Take it for a ride to the mountains.

I thought of that, but it has its leg stuck and I don't want to touch it. I am scaredof it. My husband (Mesha) is out of town this weekend.

Put it in a garbage bag.. put a tube from your car exahst to it .. then skin it and make a hat

Keep it in the cage, get its foot unstuck, feed it for a month or so to get it to trust you and then keep it as the family pet. You could probably teach it to sit and fetch. You can train it to do mischievous things to the neighbors.

They are very clever... as a pet, put locks on everything, latches wont help.

I'll pay someone to make a cap out of it for my hubby! He has always wanted one...

I would take it to the dog park and act like nothing is unusual.

oh come on, you can start a whole new fad. Instead of a chihuahua in a bag and ballerina outfit you can have a coon.
