Raccoons in Ireland


Recommended Posts


Couple yrs ago a keeper on the estate near me said he had seen a albino fox a couple of times .few months later he was checking the Larson traps etc and to his surprise he had got it ,it was a raccoon dog .

he called a zoo and they had it,they said folk buy them not knowing how to care for them so release them once too big etc .

you never no what you going to find ,

The uk population of raccoons is estimated at 5000 I believe, plus you have a small population of raccoon dogs from Asia to cloud the water but yes they are also here living, quite a big population of not very stealthy scavengers to avoid the keen eyed hunters of thl for all these years ????
