HI Everyone - I havent been online very much the last year or so, but I live in New Jersey and have woods behind me -- with a lovely small family group of...
Does anyone know how to stop the raccoons from tearing up your window screens? We have a couple of feeding stations on our patio, and to prevent having the...
Hi, My advice would be to move your feeding stations. My raccoon visitors eat out of my squirrel feeder----it has a hinged top to keep out bad weather and the...
I guess that is about all I can do.? I never thought of using a squirrel feeder since I also feed several stray cats under the same table with wet cat food,...
Hi, I came here looking for a way to fix my newbie mistake. I live in Texas on 4 acres about 3 miles from town. I first knew I had coons around from the tracks...
I'm in Indiana and am also trying to keep myself from feeding my furry visitors as often. I've cut back to 2 or 3 times a week with the exception of my...
~melinda~ It is hard not to want to feed them, they have such cute faces and ways of scooping up the food. I really enjoy them being around, but I do fear for...
Sorry Group -- I have reported this to Yahoo and removed the person. Becky ... From: girlknrider To: raccoonwatchers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, August 18,...
I have not encountered any vicious raccoons in my 11 years of having them around. I had one aggressive one that would try to run off the others to keep the...
Becky, Thanks for the tips. Barn is too crowded with junk they can easily climb out of nowhere from (happened twice), thus no I'm not about to make them behave...
I'm not having a problem anymore, they all seem to have moved out of the tin barn due to the heat. We have not been running into each other at all in the past...
They are really fun to watch and so cute, when not in close quarters. Just visited the photo section and was amazed to see an albino one. Have seen an all...
We were surprised this morning to a visit from what appears to be a young raccoon. (definitely a raccoon, guessing by size it was young.) Anyway, it was about...
Hi, I thought like you, that they were nocturnal but apparently not always-----I see younger ones during the afternoon and a really cute baby one { straight...
"...what appears to be a young raccoon. (definitely a raccoon, guessing by size it was young.)" Haha! Another comedian joins the group! =o) The raccoons here...

Dear Lyn - Life rocks, doesn't it? I can't wait to read the latest book! What's the title going to be? Jeanne C. Anderson _See My Mary Kay Web Site! _...
Jeanne, Just love your word picture of raccoons on their side eating birdseed (grapes?) like Romans at a feast. Thanks for that. Lyn Lyn Hancock 8270 Sabre Rd....
Jeanne, I just have to stop touting Tabasco around and start Gypsy my little gibbon, who was in my grade six class in 1969. I am trying to write a kids book on...
No, pics of albino raccoon but I have seen other peoples’ pictures. Newcastle Island, near Nanaimo. I will try to get one and post - in time. Lyn Hancock ...
Lea, yes raccoons are nocturnal so seeing one is daylight is a good reason to ask about. Rabies will cause animals to come out at non- normal times and they...
Hello Lea, Your concern is quite valid and the answer would be it is neither common nor uncommon. From your descriptive and the time of year, I am sure it is a...
Hi Hannah, I appreciate learning the knowledge you have of young raccoons. Also I want to thank you for being a rehabber for the sake of animals, because there...
