New Orleans Raccoon Control Tip: How to Hunt Raccoons 
Raccoons are highly intelligent and sneaky creatures. If you're going to successfully hunt them, then you need to outsmart them. This article provides a step-by-step guide on how to hunt raccoons. 

What is Raccoon Hunting?
Raccoon hunting - also known as coon hunting - is the practice of hunting raccoons mainly for their meat and fur. Coon hunting typically takes place at night with the help of a well-trained dog. However, raccoons can also be hunted during the day. 

Steps in Raccoon Hunting
Whether you're hunting raccoons for their meat or fur, or you're just trying to eliminate a nuisance raccoon that has become an unbearable burden on your property, carefully read these steps below to find out how:

Know Where to Look
One main factor that sets great hunters apart from amateurs is knowing where to find their game. While raccoons are common in rural environments, they also thrive in urban and suburban areas. However, hunting is typically only allowed in rural areas. 

Raccoons typically reside in big hollowed-out trees, underground dens, under houses, in piles of woods, and inside abandoned buildings. 

Methods of Hunting Raccoons
There are several methods of hunting down raccoons. Some of which include:

• Dogs

This is the most popular method of raccoon hunting. Hunters release hounds at night to search for the scent of raccoons. Thanks to the superb olfactory systems of dogs, they can pick up the faint scent of raccoons. Once the dog finds a scent, it begins to bark while it follows the scent trail to where the raccoon is headed. 

As the dog begins to close in, the raccoon typically climes up a tree for safety. This act is referred to as 'treeing'. Once the dog gets to the base of the tree, the hunter can easily sight the raccoon on its branches. A small-caliber rifle is then used to take down the raccoon after it has been treed with dogs. 

• Electronic Game Calls

This method is mainly employed in daytime raccoon hunting. All you need is just an electronic call and a small-caliber rifle. Here's how this method works. 

You first identify a probable raccoon den site. This may be near a hollow tree or an underground burrow or an abandoned building. You then turn on the electronic call. Electronic calls mimic the kinds of sounds made by raccoons. Hunting experts have found the sounds of fighting raccoons or young raccoons to be effective in drawing out the raccoon that might be nearby. 

The hunter hides behind the scene with stealth while waiting for the raccoon to respond to the call. As the raccoon approaches the call, the hunter can shoot it dead with the rifle. 

• Trapping

Trapping is best used when you're certain of the presence of a raccoon. If not, you risk capturing an unintended animal. Once you locate the den of a raccoon, you set a live trap close to it. 

Since raccoons are omnivores, a wide range of food can serve as bait. However, wet cat food is known to be very effective. Its strong smell is powerful enough to draw a raccoon in for a quick meal. Once the raccoon has been captured, it can then be humanely killed. 

Expert Hunting Tips
So there you have it; the top three methods used for hunting raccoons. If you'd like to experience great results in coon hunting, bear the following tips in mind:

• Look for prey during mating season

Raccoons are primarily solitary and nocturnal animals. However, during mating season, more raccoons come out in the open. That makes it easier to find them. Their mating season falls anytime between January and June. 

• Check dens during nesting season

Pregnant raccoons typically look for warm, dry, and safe places to raise their young. Her litter will remain in the nest for the next two to four months before they start venturing outside. Locating a den makes it possible to easily catch an entire family that's probably infesting your property. 

• Test your traps

Medium-sized traps are best suited for raccoons. The relatively large space of the trap will ensure the raccoon isn't injured after it is caught. A useful tip is to choose traps that have very small or reinforced gaps near the pressure plate so that you catch the raccoon. 

• Choose the right firearm

A small-caliber rifle is best suited for killing raccoons.
