If you wanted to save the skull and clean/whiten it, what's the best way to dispatch the raccoon?

They don't really seem to let you get broadside very well.

If trapping near the water you can always use a drowning slide wire, like for mink or beaver.
Since we don't discuss dispatch here other than slide wires i'll send you a PM

If not using a body grip or a submersion rig,best thing is a catch pole. PM me if you have questions or just ask on this forum and we’ll discuss it.

We can't shoot a coon in the road right a- way so you have to come up with another way to dispatch that animal.

I also recommend the death ray for no skull damage

Not sure a pellet gun would do the job. Maybe one of those high-end air rifles that will kill deer. And that might be illegal in the ROW.
