I worked for them for some time, and that's not true. It's illegal in OR to release raccoons. They are all euthanized via CO2 gassing.Only protected species (very few of these, btw) are taken to the forest, including certain skunks and squirrels. Not Raccoons.

It turned out to be pretty expensive, but I don't know what the alternative would be. Our final total was 8 raccoons caught (and removed from the neighborhood) over the month of December.

I've since fortified my coop with more plywood, concrete and layers of chicken wire. So far so good, but the credit might be all yours for catching those formerly adorable creatures.
