Raccoons are the number one killer here. My neighbor is building a chicken coop right now, and I warned him to raccoon proof it.

One of my friends has as a donkey that she said will stomp anything to death that doesn't belong there. Apparently that is expressly what those are for.

I hear the worse stories from my friends and colleagues in rural ohio. One older nurse frield told me a story about how she finally shot the wild dogs that ate her grand daughter's kittens and she was glad she got the bastards. I was like damn, different constellation of problems where I live lol. I don't worry about wild dogs at all. We don't even have stray dogs in my city anymore.


My wife went from a peta level anima lover to "kill that fucking raccoon that eats the cat food, i want to try and get that stray to stick around" real quick. she also kills chip munks with a 22 now lol.

country living is really suited to me, i wouldnt move into a free million dollar city home from my 150k country lot.

i also know some city chicken keepers, coons are indeed the fucking worst in cities.

coons have just barely made it into this part of maine, so they've been no issue
we have a trump gun nut militia guy a few doors down that i think kills every predator he sees with his hounds, so we haven't had any fox or coyote issues yet either
so far just raptors
legal to kill if they are witnessed attacking or harassing your domestic animals, so they really need to move on south for the year
not wild about the idea of killing a goshawk, which is fairly uncommon in these parts, but i'm more protective of my chickens than i expected i'd be when i got them
city life would kill me i'm quite sure
i'd be soulless in about 3 weeks
