If it’s legal to take game in your area or State, then it’s not Poaching, now is it?
Raccoons are considered vermin. Coyotes, and Skunks too, for examples.
Those can be killed by property owners in Michigan also.
Deer, Elk, Bear, are strictly controlled game animals.
I’m willing to bet a property owner even in Missouri isn’t allowed to shoot a deer Willy Nilly on their land.
I made no mention of shooting deer Willy Nilly. I clearly stated that in the state of Misery nuisance wildlife can be dealt with as the landowner sees fit, and that the Dept of Conservation must be notified of each nuisance animal that is removed.
Raccoons are considered furbearers here, and are protected with seasons and limits regulating the numbers and methods of harvest.
Can I kill a deer on my own property in Virginia?
Kill Permits
As provided by Virginia State Statute §29.1-529.
