Is it racist to think all raccoons look the same? Because I think I may have proof Cash Crab is cheating on his wife, but I can't be sure because raccoons all look the same.

Story time: While my mom was in the Army Reserves she had to do "guard duty" overnight during her 2 weeks a year. She spent one night locked in the cab of a supply truck repeating to herself and her partner, "there's nothing we can do..." Raccoons busted into the back of the truck, ripped open all the MREs and took only the junk food like chips and cheetos. And probably the adorably tiny bottles of Tabasco. It looked like a tornado the next morning and a whole truck of food no one was going to eat anyway (probably) got written off.

Bored posted:I think someone in another thread, that turned into a raccoon derail because raccoons are hilarious, mentioned that they were called washer bears and the country didn't even actually have any native species of bears. I came to the conclusion that English is the only language that doesn't call them washer bears. I'm sure that's untrue, but washer bear is just such a great name for them. Some languages are boring and just borrow the English word. The Celtic languages do this, Irish = racún, Welsh = racŵn, Breton = rakoun, and it's probably similar in Manx and Scottish Gaelic. I love raccoons now but I hated them when I was a kid. I grew up on a farm and for most of my childhood we had problems with them killing our chickens and barn cats. We even tried putting food out for them at the edge of the woods but they still kept attacking our animals. Since we were poor as hell we couldn't afford to lose chickens like that, so I spent a lot of summer nights with a rifle waiting in the dark for poor washbears which we'd often eat because free meat is free meat when you're that poor  There aren't any raccoons where I live now which is a shame because I'd really like to be able to see them in the wild outside of that previous context. I just want to throw them tasty treats  Have a big, lazy fatty to make up for my sad raccoon story

Internet Kraken posted:I never had to deal with racoons in my neighborhood. I think its because our woods were dominated by these incredibly nasty bobcats and they probably beat the poo poo out of any racoons they saw wandering around. I would of rather dealt with racoons to be honest though. Sure they might knock over your garbage but they won't wake you up at night with the most unholy screaching you've ever heard. Bobcat fights are nasty. Best part of camping is the terrifying noises randomly coming from the dark after you've fallen asleep. Went camping in Tasmania once. Did. Not. Sleep. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwhJ9ZMHAFo Horrible Smutbeast posted:You serious? Raccoons screaming is some of the worst sounds I've heard in my new apartment. I have a huge strip of grass under my big window that leads to the alleyway so I hear them loving and screaming down there every other night. And it's not like there's wolves attacking them, it's just raccoons going after other raccoons. I get to hear something like this about one night in five: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGBRHUSxCio&t=51s I'll take your raccoons any day.

I grew up on wild meat as well so I don't have an issue with eating it if it is good. How do they taste? I am very curious now. E: A few months back one of the residents had a problem with squirrels getting into his apartment and destroying stuff. The pest control guy caught about half-a-dozen huge, plump squirrels. I tried to talk him into letting me have them but he wouldn't. I was going to eat them. titties has a new favorite as of 08:01 on Aug 25, 2015 |

titties posted:I love them too but I also support the idea of killing them or any animal that is killing your livestock and pets. like most small animals, they are best in a stew so the taste is not really important. They taste like wild rabbit and seem to be a little more parasite free than squirrels somehow. Crockpot over a long time is the way to go.

If you want to eat vermin so bad just buy one of these http://www.amazon.com/Raccoon-Trap-Hunting-Setup-Anyone/dp/B004414PY8 Only raccoons go paws first for stuff so it wont catch your dog or any other animals. This trap is way too effective.

If I really wanted to eat raccoons and stuff that bad I'd just get a permit and hunt them, and I don't really feel like it. I just wouldn't want them to go to waste if they were already being killed.

Their feces actually contains really mean roundworms that do horrible things to dogs and humans. I think there was even an episode of house about a Baylisascaris procyonis infection. Which isn't a concern for you if washed your hands after handling it then cooked it. Study on the prevalence of the parasite in California, where I just learned that raccoons poo poo in communal areas called "latrines": http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/9/12/03-0039_article Also, finally looked up what the scientific name for raccoons means. "The raccoon's scientific name, Procyon lotor, is neo-Latin, meaning "before-dog washer", with lotor Latin for "washer" and Procyon Latinized Greek from προ-, "before" and κύων, "dog"." Here is a raccoon helping a dog with its oral hygiene. That sounds either dirty or horrifying, but it this video is neither. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWZPA5kGGd8 And a litter of kits are rescued and rehabilitated after their mom died in someones attic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Z95nXbfv-4 They destroy an expensive pair of boots while using the guy who rescued them as a jungle gym. They are being rehabilitated by someone else who knows what she's doing though. Bored has a new favorite as of 13:01 on Aug 25, 2015 |
