What do you do with the coon meat when you trap it? Are they good to eat?

Bert,

Many folks do eat raccoon.  Many trapper supplement their income by selling the raccoon carcasses.  That market seems regional and isn’t very viable where I live.  I had Tracy (my wife) a large quilt made out of raccoon pelts for Christmas – trimmed with coyote!  

Enjoy creation,
