Racoon (graphic)
« on: July 20, 2007, 03:42:59 PM »
We have had a racoon coming up on our deck at night and damaging the bird feeders, bird bath, etc.  Tonight I caught him on the deck and shot him in the head.  Picture tells the story.  My Benjamin 392 did the deed.  The first shot incapacitated him and the it took two more in the head to finish him off.  He won't be damaging our stuff any more.
