xiphiasWe may have finally trapped the raccoon who has been nesting in our walls on and off for the past several years. If this is the right one, she's had a litter in the walls, we trapped all the babies out, but she escaped and we didn't manage to trap and kill her.
There's a raccoon in the Have-A-Heart trap on the fire escape, waiting for the guy to come and euthanize it. You can't trap and relocate, for a number of reasons, including that it's illegal for fear of spreading disease, and because they'll just come back, and if they DON'T just come back, it's because they were killed by the animals where ever you re-located them, so it's just kinder all around to euthanize them.
But, see. It's RAINING.
There's this pathetically adorable soggy raccoon in a trap outside my house. Waiting to be killed.
I'm just hoping this is the female raccoon with the ear tag. I don't wanna have to have any more raccoons killed. They're just too adorable.
