As somebody who very often hunts raccoons, I think they are completely unrealistic. A couple things needs to be redone or added.

  1. Move raccoons to class one, I should be able to ethically kill a raccoon with a .22 or a 12 gauge.

  2. Make them climb trees and possibly have hollow trees as rest zones

  3. Make them more active at night.

If these were added, it would make hunting them more fun and realistic.

Now that I think about it, I’ve never hunted raccoons at night, nevermind the garbage can.

I guess what I mean is when shooting at class 2 its num 4 shot .... when shooting at class 3 would be 0 shot when shooting class 4-5 would be 00

Hello HunterHunts,

As a coon hunter, it's hella rare to see them just roaming around like on cotw. they should be in trees, this would also give the devs potential to add coonhound dlc, which could also be used four cougars and black bears.

Revisiting this one, I’d prefer them to stay in class 2. Mainly because I know plenty of raccoon hunters who use .45LC and it does great without completely destroying the animal.

I agree with everything but the class 1 as they should remain class 2. Honestly 22LR should be C:1-2 & 22H C:1-3. I believe in realism & authenticity when it comes to calibers, ammo, & animal behavior. Authentically C1-3 is < 50lb game [•C:1 < 10lbs •C:2 10-30lbs •C:3 30-50lbs] if EW did this correctly.

#

so as a compromise bc I to hunt them IRL with a 22 up to 30cal. 22LR should be C: 1-2 on a related note as @elfin sierra mentioned 45LC the 45 PCP should be a 2-5 as its more than suitable for coons up to pigs.
