I don't know why, but I couldn't put any text on that ^ post. This is the third such coon that I have seen in our "neighborhood". The other two were about 1/2 mile to the west and few years back. But it does appear as though the genetics are present to "throw" a blondie every so often. I think this one is a sow, as there are two apparently smaller ones in normal coloration behind her. I kid you not, I have neighbors that would rather get this coon than a big buck. So, if it is still around this fall I am going to have beat a couple neighbors to the draw.
I called one of these a few years back and got it shot and then mounted it as an oddity. That same year there was another blond/cinnamon one closer to my house that I had on cam. Those two were 25 miles apart. I saw another one a week ago and surprisingly I talked to a guy a couple nights later that saw one just a mile away from where I saw one but his had little ones. The four little ones were normal color. I have literally killed several thousand coons and up until the two from a couple years ago had never even saw one. Now four running around within a few years of each other. Pretty cool Daver! Good luck and watch out for the fence sitters that are after your blond/cinnamon coon! LOL

I had a mom and 5 of her offspring crossing the road in front of me the other day.. couldn’t quite bring myself to punching it and eliminating them all but definitely thought about it
