I was watching the 24hr game-cam from, I believe, Germany. There appeared to be some kind of small, maybe 12-20K animal. I'm just guessing at the weight. It appeared something as our racoon, but I didn't notice a tail. It could have been a badger. It was eating bait corn. Do you have any idea what it might have been? capt david "It's not how hard you hit 'em, it's where you hit 'em." The 30-06 will, with the right bullet, successfully take any game animal in North America up to 300yds. Get closer! | ||

Probably a racoon, they do exist in parts of Southern Germany Mark Hunting is getting as close as you can, shooting is getting as far away as possible. | |||

This animal is a Marderhund (nycetereutes procyonoides) also called Enok. You can often find it in Eastern Germany (Brandenburg, Mecklenburg - Vorpommern) where hunters shoot more enoks than foxes. But the enok moves more and more to the west and in some years will have it in whole Germany. Burkhard Burkhard | |||

I think nycetereutes procyonoides is the Latin name for Racoon Dog... Never realised that they had these or Racoons in Germany though..Both must have been introduced at some point? | |||
