Coon for sale, Port Gibson, Mississippi. February 2016. |
So I was driving up to Missouri on the last day of February, having left South Louisiana behind.
Just north of Port Gibson, Mississippi, I saw the sign on my left: COON 4 SALE.
Wasn't the first time I saw such a handwritten sign along the road that day, but this time I pulled in to see what was what.
A gentleman had a lot of raccoon meat ready to go in his cooler.

You get your dressed raccoon with organs intact at 5 bucks apiece.
Dressed with organs already removed at 10 bucks apiece.
Interestingly, the man gets most of his coons from Missouri trappers.
