Racoons
We're suddenly having problems here with raccoons. As more land is cleared
and more houses built the wildlife, being squeezed out, is entering people's
yards, going for trashcans and getting on porches.
Last night one completely trashed my small 150g inground pond. 10 of the 12
fish are completely gone. Beautiful longtailed Shubunkins all! Plants
were broken and trampled. Rocks knocked in the water. It's a total mess. I
saved the two remaining GF and pulled out all the plants. I wont be able to
keep fish in this pond anymore. Netting this one isn't practical.
