And snakes, all in the food chain. Anything you provide free feed for and protect them from predation ( coon hunters) they are gonna multiply biggly.
I didn’t know that , it should be no license required in Ga . But it is free on your landAlabama already have year round trapping of coons trying to help the turkey population. No license required.
I quit feeding my back yard deer as the coons showed up and took over……they’ve left thank goodness! I’ve seen plenty around dumpsters but only seen a few in the wild.Another reason there`s so many more coons these days is the additional feed in the name of deer corn that a lot of folks put out. The more feed you place, the more coons you`re gonna have.
You know the funny thing ? When I was growing up in WV….we often had to drive 2 1/2 hours, across state lines to Circleville Ohio….just to tree 1 single coon with hounds. 2 or 3 a night was something talked about ! And that was with my cousins night champion coonhound. No baiting back then, Ohio had the big cornfields.
We used to drive several hours down to eastern NC to coon hunt. You could tree more down there in a week than you would all season up here. Now, since almost nobody coon hunts here, they're thick as flies.You know the funny thing ?
