Poor thing.

[yobid]

Maybe a pellet rifle would help.

[iowamark]

Good job for a sharpshooter.

[I cannot think of a name]

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come across cat skeletons in trees, and raccoon skeletons inside bottles.

Honestly, city people worry about the silliest things.

(The cat will come down from the tree, nobody needs to save it, and the jar will come off the raccoons head - all on its own.)

[upsdriver]

Simple solution.......... shoot it.

[TomGuy]

Net and tranquilizer dart.

How does a tree get its face caught in a jar? Just an idle question. sd

[Leep]

Short story long..A bear got up a tree in town once and animal control or Ranger Bob? tranqed it.
People booed when the bear half missed the net and hit the sidewalk with a thud.
So make sure they have the net properly in place if there is a big crowd of town folks watching.

Agree - Raccoons are nusance animals when they come out of the woods and get into suburban areas

I'm still trying to figure out how they know on which side of the tree is the face....

[ngat]

By shoot it, I assume you mean the glass jar. With your Daisey B-B gun. Safe copper B-B cracks glass, which falls harmlessly to the ground where it is safely picked up and recycled, and the ‘coon gratefully scampers away.

[shotdog]

I’m reliably told that they know which side it’s knot. sd

[CAluvdubya]

Bwahahaha!

[Scythian]

Sounds like a job for a Barret 50 cal ...

[Old Retired Army Guy]

I think the power company has hydraulic lifts, or the fire Department Ladders that could get them close enough to break the glass.

[Safetgiver]

Nah, shoot the nasty bugger with a 12 gauge, hit the jar and kill the varmint.

[Jemian]

It's a racoon. Shoot the dadgum thing.

How wood they know?

[See what you started!]

[Charles Martel]

I'm still trying to figure out how they know on which side of the tree is the face....

It's the side with the kite crumbs clinging to it.

I agree about shooting it. It would be more a more kind thing to do than to let it die of dehydration.

There is a deer skeleton in our woods that one of my sons found. It’s antlers were wedged between two small trees. The poor animal got stuck while scraping it’s felt and it starved to death.

A .306 would have been a much easier way to go.
