Most of you have heard this already.  In 2004 I found my rusted out project 3A where it had squatted on rotting tires in a shed in New York for 25 years.  During that time racoons had used the engine bay as a outhouse.  3 inches of racoon poop everywhere.  As I beat the drums trying to unlock the brakes, a cloud of fecal dust wafted around my head.   

 

Oh well, I understand they once used whale snot to make perfume. 

 

But I'm all for eating racoons and squirrels now.

Take them far away or they can come back. I had one with a split tail that came back twice. First time, didn't believe it and painted him with pink landscapers paint.  A few days later, good old pink was back.  Took em all across the river after that.
