The coon photo caught my eye since I have a definite problem with them here. Never had an issue with them until last year when I planted Arugula in my flower beds. (I planted it for the blooms, not for eating the leaves.) To me, Arugula foliage has a "peppery" taste to it. (Maybe to others, it doesn't.)
Anyway....once the Arugula got big and healthy, it must have sent out a silent alert to every raccoon around here. They pulled up every single plant over the course of about three weeks...root and all...and devoured them.
Anyone know what's up with that ?
