    Tried to start a poll but it didn't work ?

    Why don't you run? Let's hear your platform. There's always the write in option.[/quote It would be a pretty simple platform. Less government, less taxes, less entitlement, and a stronger defense. I saw a report where the average tax paying citizen works until August to pay his tax dept every year if we reduced that think of amount of money you would get to keep. America can take of America if our self righteous leaders let it and stay out of the way. Works for me. But since you don't have a snowballs chance in heck this cycle, can we at least vote for the candidate who claims he wants to preserve our 2A rights? And put in office the president whom will select conservative judges? That no fly list crap he favors is 100% unconstitutionalI haven't read or heard where he favors that but it would not surprise me.

    and what says your union? Debate doesn't matter to most, a vote for Hillary is a vote against logic, reality and the Constitution.

    Question

    Yep. You can use a firearm but the 1/4 mile rule applies. If there is an "occupied structure" closer than 1/4 mile then a pellet gun or bow are your options. Technically, 1/4 mile rule applies to hunting this bobcat too, yes? You'll have the permission of the homeowner (gf) but not nessisarily the neighbours, so no weapon is an option. Just trying to look at this thru the eyes of a warden. G&F would probably trap and remove it for you.

    Lot of parallels to my dad from the Erie area Bob, must be something in the lake water. They don't make them like that anymore.

    PBS Nature RACCOON NATION Feb 07, 2012 Geography: The raccoon is native to North America and can be found throughout the United States, except for parts of the Rocky Mountains, and southwestern states like Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. New World Encyclopedia: New habitats that have recently been occupied by raccoons (aside from urban areas) include mountain ranges, such as the Western Rocky Mountains, prairies, and coastal marshes. After a population explosion starting in the 1940s, the estimated number of raccoons in North America in the late 1980s was 15 to 20 times higher than in the 1930s, when raccoons were comparatively rare. Urbanization, the expansion of agriculture, deliberate introductions, and the extermination of natural predators of the raccoon have probably caused this increase in abundance and distribution.[5] I believe they've always been in wet areas of AZ, but their range and population has exploded. I'm trying to find an article I read last night published by the U of A regarding 19th century fur trappers in AZ unable to locate raccoons here.

    I'm trying to find that, read it years ago when there weren't many around, think it was Natl Geographic. The notion that they are not 'indigenous'is so ridiculous, maybe they edited that out. Like allforelk wrote, "unit 8 from the 80s on" kind of encapsulates it, they've spread like hogs in TX. My earliest and for years, only encounter with them was at Colossal Cave in 1977. I didn't know one was in a trash can and when I pushed the lid open it grabbed the bag from me. Scared the crap out of me. Coons are damned smart too. About 17 years ago I was living in WA. There was a koi pond outside my bedroom porch. Heard a ruckus one night and it was a pair of coons working together to catch fish. One coon was in the pond herding the kois to the opposite end of the pond where his partner was lying on the edge and scooping the fish onto the land.

    Well, we've already covered a third of the state. At what point are they considered indigenous? Crap, I best double up my efforts to secure the ducks and chickens.
