I piled up some garbage bags on one side of the dumpster so hopefully he could climb out.

Best way for them to get out of a trash can or dumpster is to put a tree limb or a towel ( secure it ) and let them climb out.

@threeby8887 I should have said that I actually prefer to trap and relocate wild animals that get onto my property--a long way away. But where I live, relocation of a trapped wild animal more than 100 yards from where it was caught is illegal, so legally I would have to shoot it.

@ducrozet74 I agree with you about how heinous it is to torture animals. I have NO PROBLEM with killing raccoons that get onto my property (thankfully that hasn't happened so far), but I would shoot them in the head. That way they don't have to suffer and I'm still rid of them.

@threeby8887 Here and in poor Texas too.

@threeby8887 i just have a HUGE problem with somebody hacking with a garden tool at 4 baby raccoons,l not even killing them, just basically torturing them. When the cops came 2 were still alive with hacked off arms and bits and the mother was hurt and ran of with a hurt baby that is in severe pain and will die a slow death. I am NOT Ok with that. I dont like anyone killing anythin alive, but IF you are gonna do it make it a really fast humane death, with zero pain. And dont terrorize animals.

@threeby8887 well i also live in a bad neighborhood, sometimes bums go through my garbage for bottles, or sit on my porch all fucked on drugs. should i shoot them in the head??maybe hack them to death with a shovel?? i mean they mess up my fucking garbage, and once i found a big human shit outside my door. personally i rather have raccoons than crackheads fucking up my garbage. but that's me.

[threeby8887]

@HattieLovesCattie Yeah, well the poor rabid animals still need to be kept out of our neighborhoods, twns, and cities. They don't need to spread their problems to us.

I hope you folks get some rain soon :)

@threeby8887 I think the two foxes and now the raccoon that has been spotted are from the wild around here but since this part of the southeast is in a bad drought this summer plus the heat,the poor rabid animals are looking for food and water.The area where the rabid foxes were seen has a nice pond in a wooded area that has trails in a residential neighborhood.Hubby and I like to take those trails in the winter time.

[threeby8887]

@HattieLovesCattie  I hope they find them.

That's why I wouldn't release wild animals into residential or commercial area. Even stray dogs and cats one must be careful with.

@threeby8887 2 rabid foxes bit a lady and her dog recently in my area.A C is still looking for them.
