I noticed the MNR woman with the trapped raccoons. It is a perfect area for them.
|
She puts them in one end of the trap.
|
Then she puts tags on their ears.
|
|
Off it went!
|
The ear clips identify them as innoculated for rabies.
|
The raccoons took it in stride.

Putting on the ear tag - much like an ear ring.
|
Putting it in one end.
|
|
She caught the mom and 4 babies.
|
If they took the animals away, this would leave a territorial void. Possibly rabid animals would move into the area.
|
|
|
|
|
Then off it went.
|
|
|
The mother had been innoculated last year.
|
She took it in stride.
