A relative of mine thought a fox or a raccoon was killing her chickens. She later found out that it was a neighbor’s three-legged dachshund that was killing livestock for some reason. The dog was frequently seen running loose along the road but it disappeared a couple months later after killing my relative’s chickens. I suspect another neighbor caught the dog attacking chickens and shot it.

@@kennnuthatch5724 I trap at deer feeders. I've tried store brand fruit loops, and dog and cat kibbles. Mini marshmallows has the edge and they stuff in tight enough below the trigger to not dump out in this application. I should have said dry jello powder 🤠. It's for smell. Koolaid powder probably works too. Coons are idiots. You put 4 DPs close enough together, I swear they'd have one on every foot. Bacon, sardines, bread and maple syrup, anything. Mardi Gras beads and powdered sugar will probably work. Corn at the feeder gets them there, Sweet or savory smell and something to reach for does the rest. I bet popcorn works, catfish dough balls, wad of cellophane, anything. They can't help themselves in my experience.
@@kennnuthatch5724 Shoulda said I haven't been impressed with chocolate. Knock off Count Chocula was no great shakes. Cherry jello/koolaid dust is the lure. Coons have to beat the pigs to anything I try. Feeders in pens are the most productive. If action cools, wait a couple of weeks for move ins to fill the void and start again. I release possums because they eat ticks. Haven't paid enough attention to what they love. Should have. I'd avoid it unless it's the best for coons. I'm not a fur guy.

This is a "keep my tax exemption" program and is good exercise and, so far, kind of a hoot to do to get out of the house. I bought 3 Duke pro 550s yesterday to go after bobcats. (And probably coyotes, though I won't target them) Cats are at least good eating. My dog is an aggravatingly and demandingly good squirrel dog. I have about 30 more squirrels in the freezer than I can ever eat. So, I'm thinking bobcat and catfish bait.

This was my first year trapping. The information I got from you helped alot especially during the rut. Caught right at the base of a den tree and a pinch point between 2 timber areas. Ended up with 9 coons, 3 possums and 2 beavers. Our season ends tomorrow.
Ok, I'm pretty smart, so I took your idea and ran with it! I imported about 200 Pythons to my neighborhood. And as I predicted, all the coons are now gone! Sometimes I even amaze MYSELF! But for some reason all the cats and small dogs are now gone. When I figure out why I'll let you know. Stay tuned.
A couple weeks ago a big raccoon wandered into my yard in broad daylight and started fighting my dog. Got to test out my new .410 lever action and the vet says my dog is A-okay.
Getting that close to his feet on release you should really be wearing gloves buddy . all i takes is one accident One good scratch and you ll get sick trust me its a real thing. the have so many types of bacteria under the nails and on the feet alone .

Great job on the ME Podcast. Damn near brought tears to my eyes all that talk about trapping. My friends and I hit it hard all thru middle school into HS, we caught the boom. I stopped trapping in 1982....I made some nice money as a young kid; up and out of the house every morning at 5:30, rode the old Ski Doo in the winter time....Finger Lakes region of NYS. What a great time we had!
I am having bad luck with my raccoon cages so I am thinking g of trying a DP trap. BUT, i prefer to relocate the raccoon instead of dispatching it. Is there a safe way for me to remove a live raccoon from a DP trap for transport?
22lr ball bat 17 her maybe even a 50 cal muzzle loader sometimes a 10 gauge (just joking 22lr and 17hmr are most popular but I use Ball bat fast and clean?
I caught my first raccoon last night. I target woodchucks on my small property and last night a raccoon got in my 160 bucket set. I just happened to be waking up when I heard the trap fire outside my bedroom window! It thrashed around for about 10 seconds then all went silent. Never seen a raccoon here in my 58 years in this house. I did see 2 on my security camera last summer though finally walking around my backyard.
Thank you for your service. Racoons are the only animal I hate with a passion. When I camp they are always fucking with me. I see their beady eyes in the darkness of the forest.
Great info. But what is happening when you are driving at around 12:30? Looking out your drivers window you are moving forward but it looks like you are going in reverse in the back window. Very surreal!
How come your back window shows you are driving in reverse? The view does not look like a reflection and it shows the land scapes coming at you through the back window. Do you have mirror film on the back window? I am 14 and I am Just curious.
You can also just stick a dp in the ground and wallow the hole out enough that it won’t freeze hard and it still stays up right you can still keep mice out that way
I use baby marshmallows and some chocolate sauce or cat food and fish oil. A lot of guys have there own mix or whatever and have it pre mixed, but I find two squeeze bottles one of chocolate one of fish oil and a bag of marshmallows and one of cat food doesn’t take a lot of space in my bucket.

The U.S. fur pelt market is disappearing, China close behind, and prices for raccoon skin spiraling down the fastest, so what's the value of trapping all these raccoons?

We get raccoons every few days trying to kill our chickens and I was wondering what you do with them? I just bury them in the yard, but it’s a pain in the ass. I don’t think I have ever heard of anyone wanting them for anything. I imagine the pelt might be worth something, but where I am, there’s nobody advertising that they wavy them, so what do you do with them?
If you have the know how you could turn the pelt into a hat.. I suppose if you have enough of them you could make a coat. If you aren't squeamish you can eat them. Raccoon used to be a holiday dish in the US, it's even been served for dinner in the Whitehouse (talking 1800s). They're still eaten in the south in different areas. Admittedly if you're in a city they're likely eating trash so maybe not safe for eating in that case.
@@TheWasatchGearReviewno he is to busy running his line and put up fur. Plus can you imagine how long it would take to answer all the questions/comments on all his videos everyday.
Water salt and vinegar soak for a few days will take out all the wild game flavor out of deer and any other meat. I used it on what everyone else throws away that can be used in cooking stew. I tasted no deer flavor in the deer stew I made.

I've hunted for years with a rife and in many states for elk, deer, coyottee, and I've seen trappers desimate opposams, raccoons, bobcat, beavers, I use to see kit Fox's but even though there protected trappers traps don't discriminate and I haven't seen any for 20 years here in colorado where I grew up in gunnison, I'm not sure about trapping.
@Lgh34474 it is actually a lot of work setting and monitoring all of those traps. And most traps do discriminate based on the type of trap, or the way it is set. And some traps kill their target animals instantly. You are factually wrong and just arguing with your feelings.
What do you guys do with all of that Racoon meat?... do you process it into something edible or food for your dogs, Cats?... I know there are videos where Raccoon meat is eaten.
Why do you trap raccoons? Food (is that dangerous due to possibility of rabies)? Sell the pelts? Some other reason? I have a trappers license, but haven't used it yet. Thanks

The U.S. fur pelt market is disappearing, China close behind, and prices for raccoon skin spiraling down the fastest, so what's the value of trapping all these raccoons?
Not sure what his value is for trapping but people are starting to get back into it just for the purpose to help with turkey nest predators
They kill chickens
Heritage. Love. Principle. Purpose. History. Passion. And the lord of Lord's, said we could!
Pheasant, turkey, geese, egg robbers. Helps those population flourish
He has another market than the standard fur market for racoons. No idea what it is though, he's very careful when rarely speaking about it.
I never did right-of-way trapping. I did use a lot of aluminum foil. 🙂
Do you have a video of Raccoon Bait?
Awesome video great job!👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
I like how he’s really thought this thru..his strategy for finding quick easily trappable coons is really awesome and would probably work for fox and coyote too in places like Kansas and Oklahoma
What name brand of the chaps you wear and where can a man get them.
Ain't setting in Missouri too many trap thieves. Love catching em tho. Keep GW num on speed dial lol
Like the video and what your doing with your sets.Whats your go to for bait with the dog proof ? And another question do you anchor to trees when possible or do you use like a wolf fang cable stake?
Awesome job brother
Jesus Christ is the son of God who died and rose three days later and loves all of you. He died for everyone and wants you with Him, to know Him and live for His glory. Come be saved eternally and spend time with Him to know Him. Be saved, free, forgiven, healed, delivered, baptized, whole and let Him show you how He is everything you need.
🕊️💕Live righteous and Holy because He said to and paid for our way to live like Him. Ask anything in His name and the Father will do it amen hallelujah praise God thank you Jesus . 🙏
I lift up everyone's prayers, wants and needs to You Jesus, please pour out blessings. May Your favor, grace and mercy be upon the world. In Jesus name come help us all. You know our needs and everything else about each of us. In Jesus name amen thank you Jesus praise God 🙏
Jesus, Help people to be rooted and grounded in Your love and to obey Your truth. That they are living in the truth being taught by You. That they know Your voice and word. Knowing truth from errors, discernment. 💕
We are ambassadors of Christ. We represent God, when we are seen Jesus should be seen, His ways not ours. We should be living for and showing God, living for His glory. We are to be an example of Jesus for the world to see Him and want to know Him and know Him more. 🙏 🔥
2 Chronicles 7:14 says, if My people humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways I will hear them from heaven and heal their land. 🙏 💖
People need to turn from their wicked ways, Jesus paid for it. That's God stating it in that verse and there are more verses. People need to repent, to be cleansed by His blood and live Holy because He's Holy and righteous because He's righteous. Our God said to stop sinning in many many scriptures and He paid for everyone to be cleansed of sin (Isaiah 53), and to live how He said. He dwells in the Holy temple (your body) and said not to defile the temple. He said to defile the temple is death. He's always serious about everything He said to do. He's just as serious about what He said not to do. We live in obedience to His law, every word if it! He dwells within us all to be with and lead us in His ways. 💕🙏🔥 🕊️
Deuteronomy 28 there are blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience. The whole chapter, and verse 46 is one example of generational curses. These go into the following generations, the 3 and 4th. Our children pay the price for our sin. Stop sinning you are sending consequences to yourself and to your loved ones, children. By God's law you are. If you don't believe me ask Him, in Jesus name may you see and know the truth in it's fullness.
Love your neighbor as you love yourself.
Jesus is worthy of everything He said and paid for, so I implore you to do as God said.
Jesus said If you love me you will obey my commands. Love Him with all your heart, mind, soul and strength.💖🙏
Praise God 🙏 ❤️
Hallelujah Jesus 🕊️
In Jesus mighty name 🙏🔥🕊️ 💖
We get raccoons every few days trying to kill our chickens and I was wondering what you do with them? I just bury them in the yard, but it’s a pain in the ass. I don’t think I have ever heard of anyone wanting them for anything. I imagine the pelt might be worth something, but where I am, there’s nobody advertising that they wavy them, so what do you do with them?
If you have the know how you could turn the pelt into a hat.. I suppose if you have enough of them you could make a coat.
If you aren't squeamish you can eat them. Raccoon used to be a holiday dish in the US, it's even been served for dinner in the Whitehouse (talking 1800s). They're still eaten in the south in different areas. Admittedly if you're in a city they're likely eating trash so maybe not safe for eating in that case.
Properly confining your chickens would help 100%. Otherwise you’re just baiting the raccoons. Make sense?
Seat belt?
Hey, love these videos! Just started trapping this year. Got a question Do you night set your DP’s the same way you do all your
Other traps?
Good luck. This guy is too good to answer questions.
@@TheWasatchGearReviewno he is to busy running his line and put up fur. Plus can you imagine how long it would take to answer all the questions/comments on all his videos everyday.
When is the racoon rut? This is my first year trapping coons
Water salt and vinegar soak for a few days will take out all the wild game flavor out of deer and any other meat. I used it on what everyone else throws away that can be used in cooking stew. I tasted no deer flavor in the deer stew I made.
Silver skin and all.
I love the taste of venison, I was raised on it and elk..
Deer stew is one of the best dishes I’ve ever had.
Than ya might as well just eat beef .
Will the one you let go hit the same trap again? If I was that ooon i would never stick my paw in one of those again.
It is more effective, but Jerry Clower would say it's not as much fun.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
a tuff guy , a real hero. you kill not catch. big man
MOST DEFINITELY
@@brian7454 killing and torturing defenseless animals makes you a coward. the day will come for your life choices and actions to be judged.
@@bobbydribblegrow up snowflake
@@bobbydribbletalking on the internet doesn’t really make you look brave lol
@@victorygarden556Don’t pretend like this guy or you know anything about fighting. You’d get kicked in side of your knee and fall over. This guy and you are clearly miserable creatures.
I've hunted for years with a rife and in many states for elk, deer, coyottee, and I've seen trappers desimate opposams, raccoons, bobcat, beavers, I use to see kit Fox's but even though there protected trappers traps don't discriminate and I haven't seen any for 20 years here in colorado where I grew up in gunnison, I'm not sure about trapping.
Trapping is lazy, cruel prolonger suffering for animal and worst of all indiscriminating to wildlife
@Lgh34474 it is actually a lot of work setting and monitoring all of those traps. And most traps do discriminate based on the type of trap, or the way it is set. And some traps kill their target animals instantly. You are factually wrong and just arguing with your feelings.
What state do you live in
Do you sell the Fur/pelts?
I’ve heard the price is very low Now.
Where do you buy your traps from ? Or what catalog ? Thanks , your the best !
With your efficiency , it's a wonder there are any coons left!
Raccoon s are everywhere. Hitting the sweet corn and Turkey nest and young birds. Every farm should trap ! Caught around 100 on the farm.
What do you guys do with all of that Racoon meat?... do you process it into something edible or food for your dogs, Cats?... I know there are videos where Raccoon meat is eaten.
Not rubbed? What is a rubbed coon?
Backwards or forward
Why do you trap raccoons? Food (is that dangerous due to possibility of rabies)? Sell the pelts? Some other reason? I have a trappers license, but haven't used it yet. Thanks
because of the reflection on your back window it looked like you were driving in reverse.
