I wonder what causes it? I mentioned to my grandson while hunting the other night that I wish I had kept data for weather conditions and see how they related to coon moving? It is my grandsons second season and he noticed the lack of wildlife moving.

Not many left around here.

We had a disease in our overpopulated raccoons. Started summer of 2023 and lasted till midwinter 2024. Very few road kills compared to 2022 and before. I was taking 60 plus a season within a mile of my house. I don't hunt hard or long hours. Couple times a week 2 or 3 hours a night.

This year dogs have treed 4. All have been small kittens. I harvested 1, left the rest to tree again. Just wanted show you what over population and a disease will do. They are out there just few and far between.

We also lost our overpopulated deer to disease this past summer.

Happy Hunting

EHD got the deer , drought this year made it worse. It is not spread deer to deer, it has to be bitten by a midge , they inhabit mud in two inches of water or less! Always seem to have a bumper crop of young raccoons , but start disappearing when the deer hunters start their deer feeders up , they use the fly bait on them!
