Efficacy of raccoon removal in urban and rural sites in northern Illinois

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We placed 109 camera traps (n = 204 unique camera trap placements) at 6 study sites (5 treatment and 1 control) to monitor raccoon response to removal. Our results indicated that implementing biannual, multiple, or extended trapping programs could maintain reduced raccoon abundance and occupancy over longer durations where protection of prey species is
