Haven't seen a Mazda MX-3 Precidia in a long time.

Funny. I also saw one today and was thinking the same thing.

Forgot to look to see if it had the little V6 in it. My X had one with a V6 - a nice little car.

I remember those motors being smooth to drive but not particularly durable.
1.8 liter V6?

The neighbor had to call a pest service to remove a Mother coon and her five kits. Normally they only give birth to two or three. I am surprised that coons will get into a house in a new-ish subdivision away from tall, established trees and streams.

Apparently, there's lots of food and shelter in subdivisions and cities....at least that's what Planet Earth II said.   ;D

The pest control guys say that they cant trap them, only snare them and then they can only take them up to a kilometer away before they release them. They will find their way back in no time.

I wonder why they can't trap them?

A pal put a can of tuna (or cat food) in a trap before and that did it easily and every time.

Maybe they've been trapped multiple times and have gotten wise to the plan..

The pest control guy said a neat trick to get rid of them is to turn on a radio and tune it to a talk radio  station and leave it on for a week. Drives them nuts and ultimately out of the house.

Gotta respect coons and coyotes. Learning to live with humans - they’re in it for the long haul!
Just another reason to have a dog with a strong prey drive in the back yard.
