A Night Visitor







In the past several weeks, Betty has been seeing disgusting piles of waste from unknown animals in the middle of the well-kept lawn in the backyard. Though the feces were clean up each morning, there would be more the next day.

A raccoon appeared in the yard at night, and then it got brave enough to get into the garage to steal cat food. Then it stood up outside the walkout door when Albert and Betty were watching TV in the family room.

No harm done to the rabbits yet, but the danger lingered.

Enough is enough. A live animal trap was purchased and set up with its favorite cat food inside. The best $70 spent, next morning, a young raccoon was trapped. As one could see from the two photos, it's not a very happy raccoon.

The young raccoon now has a new home in the beautiful Lake Anderson County Park where there are trees, land, other wild lives, and a beautiful dam. If our readers have good eyesight, you may be able to see the little dot in the third picture when it was dashing toward its new home.
