Hmmm....
I'm not a fan of catch and release...
I have raccoons digging up my vegetable garden, and I can't catch them... I think someone brought me their pests....
I had carrot seedlings up... Now... It looks like someone tilled everything under.... Fairly large patch...
In my other house.... The raccoons useta come in my kitchen and grab my food and scatter plastic containers everywhere....
One or two raccoons, wouldn't have been so bad... But like cats, 1 became 5, and then those had kits.... Endless escalation.
Speaking of tents.... I've experienced them tearing through a tent, and scattering everything they didn't eat.... And then repeatedly coming back.
And... Like the person said about calling cards.... The tent stank....
A bullet doesn't sound so bad...
Anyone that eats meat shouldn't shrink at the idea of taking the life of a pest...
I think that we'd all be better off killing the critters we ate, or just giving up meat.... Meat isn't especially healthy for us anyway.... We'd all be better off vegan.
Some peeps eat raccoon... I'd rather eat a nice roadkill deer.
