Raccoons

[Muddy Feet]

My friend and his wife have been feeding raccoons on their deck for years so they're pretty tame but this still probably isn't a very good idea.

It's probably not a very good idea but I would do it too Thanks for the pics.

They're cool pics, anyway. Those rascals can be mean. My grandpa quit coon huntin when one got his best dog in the water and drowned him.

Wildlife is exactly that, you never know what they might do. But We raised a Ground hog in our house while it was young, It used to lay on my feet and watch tv, I miss the little fellar.

Cool Pics,

If they bite..consider Rabies...

Tastes like chicken.

Not legal to feed them in FL., but my sis-inlaw does anyway

Those things are probably one of the tuffest animals I've ever seen. We used to have a Mastiff that would fight one until he just couldn't go any farther and then the raccoon would just get up and walk off! They can make scary noises as well--kind of a cross between a hiss and a scream!
Cool shots anyway, Muddy Feet! Just tell your friends not to trust them and be careful not to get bitten!!

Man they sure are a beautiful creature. Not to sure wether I would feed them myself as i understand some may have rabbies but i guess you are the best to judge that from their behaviour. Cool pics

This was the first time I have ever hand fed them myself. Probably not real smart and I wouldn't recommend it. I sure got a dirty look from my friends wife when I told him that I have eaten raccoon meat many times and it was pretty good.
