I think we have identified el Chupacabra from the other night.


Looks like it was a raccoon after all. The previous cam capture was just a weird one-off since, even when they're blurry, you can still usually see the tail stripes. Since he seems to be visiting our yard more frequently, looks like it's time to get the electric fence erected around the vegetable garden.

Sure they are a pest. But just think your house was built on his land.Have a game warden trap him take him to new home

Do not try to trap raccoons yourself. They can carry rabies.

ROBERT:
I never said they were a pest. We just want to keep them away from our corn stalks. They're welcome to wander around the rest of the yard and drink out of the birdbath all they want.

JEANETTE:
We have no plans to trap or relocate them. Just want to keep them out of our veggie garden.

Yet another reason to refrain from petting them. :-)
