  • Oddfellow’s Rest: The graveyard here is a hotspot for raccoons and rabbits at night.
  • Beecher’s Hope: Check the area in front of the pavilion, west of the main house.
  • Just south of Beecher’s Hope in the morning from around 4 to 6 AM.
  • Armadillo: Look behind the stagecoach in the grassy area for both Raccoons and Skunks. Also, explore the back alleys of the town at night.

  • Tanner’s Reach: Place bait in the large opening by the river, south of the town.
  • Tall Trees: You can find Raccoos in the northern part of Tall Trees.
