Raccoon Hunting Questions

[dusty20]

On my land when am I able to take racoons and with what restrictions? 

Are the regulations similar to Coyotes for land owners? How about the lines in the DNR book about taking raccoon out of season if it is causing issues with plants etc... What designates a destructive raccoon family? 



This is what the eregs says:

Raccoon, Opossum

Nov. 8, 2015 – Jan. 31, 2016

No limit

Dog Running (Raccoon, Opossum)
--- does this simply mean dog can chase the coon but you are not able to kill them? 
Feb. 1, 2015 – Oct. 25, 2015

Not applicable

Feb. 1, 2016 – Oct. 25, 2016


Thanks for all your help!

Dog running season only allows for the 'chasing' of raccoons. A person may take a raccoon that is causing damage to property or is a health or safety hazard to people or domestic animals outside the taking seasons.
