ceemike...Mike & Judy 50 Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Those things always worry me when wandering around in broad daylight. Yeah, us too. I called the front desk & reported it & pest control came out & set some traps. Our neighbors are tent campers & I warned them too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Yes, it seemed to be crab walking.That's a good sign that it might have rabies. Hopefully animal control can trap it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Probably caught it from eating one of those bats from the bat house! Momof6....aka Marty and Tri-Circle-D 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Memphis 105 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Wow, that's the first coon I have ever seen at the Fort. I hope they catch and remove him. The coons are really a nuisance at Fort Desoto near St.Pete and the county officials that run the park do nothing to discourage them. They even have automatic watering locations around the campground. Probably a good thing otherwise they would be eating the hoses on campers. They will even go in you car while you are unloading to steel your food. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I, also, have never seen a raccoon at the Fort. I always thought they were used to make the hats sold in the trading posts. Which is fine by me. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TCDI dare you to go in and ask them how much they would pay you if you caught him, skinned him, and made the cap yourself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 I've only seen one the many visits to the Fort, and that was when I was out looping in the 2000 Loop very late at night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cindymac11 43 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 I was almost eaten by an armadillo last time we were there. Or at least an armadillo walked in front of me. That's the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
