I've for the most part respected wildlife and been fair, but one critter I seem to dislike the most is the raccoon, and the weasel is not far behind. I've never hesitated to shoot a raccoon, they are such a darned pest. They have eaten more of my darned pets over the years, I see one when armed, its done.
Rich, you'll like this though, I see this 'chuck coming up the hill everyday, through my corn patch and then he's on the lawn, lately cleaning up fallen apricot fruit, I think I missed him 3x with the .22 sidearm, some directions, most of which he seems to travel I can't shoot given the houses, ok, thats fine, I need some practice and do not want to waste ammo on it, a catch 22! He really is not bothering a darned thing watching him, lots of forage, not dry like last year. Well they do move around and he now resides under the porch and gets irritated when he runs for cover, I can hear him under there when I reset the trap, which is of no use now. I won't use a leg trap, I did that last year and got my target, I just ain' that mean to make an animal suffer like that again, injured and in the high heat, it is a size or 2 big anyway. He has learned how to fool the have a heart trap, bananas, apricots or whatever I place in there now, he avoids it, I hear the doors slam closed, no 'chuck inside! Chipmunk has set it off before too, but he sure is smart. Now another comes along and he comes right out of the dugout so to speak and gets int he umpires face, tail waggin, growlin, they fight for this nice spot under the porch, I will have to hardware cloth it off once I now he's out, can't have him die under there, it would reek. They were fighting outside my window yesterday afternoon, these things are everywhere, and move in fast, I got rid of 7 last year.
