Stop playing with the family pet.....scratch it's belly

Got a few on game cam pics but nothing I could get a shot at....unless I get that night scope and a silencer

Beauty coon!

Nice catch. That raccoon would make a nice canoe mount. And it's big enough for christmas supper.

There's a few caught in southern Alberta every year for the past several decades. Where there is one raccoon there is probably a couple more.
