RECORD RACCOON: Couper Simmons (right) harvested this 35-pound raccoon while hunting with his brother Hunter Simmons (left) in Worth County.
They contacted Conservation Agent Brandon Lyddon, who weighed the raccoon at a certified scale. The current MDC state record raccoon is 28 pounds, 8 ounces.
New records are determined at the end of the hunting and trapping seasons, which end at the end of February.
Congratulations!
