The masked varmints.....

The raccoon is a nocturnal animal and lives in swamps, hardwoods, barns and just about everywhere here in central Ontario. It can be found in most places in North Americal. Raccoons are considered a varmint, and are hunted at night with the use of scent hounds. They do alot of damage to crops, especially corn crops. They are usually treed at night with a coonhound and shot in the head with a .22 rimfire and the law here in Ontario states that the 22 is to be chambered in short, long, or long rifle.

Raccoons eat just about anything. What I find they eat alot of around here, is corn, soya beans, farmers chickens, pretty much anything that we'd eat they'd eat.. frogs, fish... I'm no expert on a coons diet but when I hunt them I find the easiest hunts are in cornfields where there's a woodlot close by. I like it because it's easy hunting, and walking around the edge of a corn field instead of ending up down in a big swamp.
