In the red fern grows, how does billy catch his first coon?

~*KIMMIE*~....



Check in chapters 7 or 8. Billy's grandfather teaches him to make a trap into which he places a bright shiny object and some nails at an angle. For several days it doesn't work, no coon, but when the human scent finally wears off, he catches one! (the coon reaches in for the shiny object and when he tries to hold the object AND lift his paw out, it is caught on the nails.)



hope that helps!!! :-)

puts up trap, put scarecrow(as decoy as himself) waits until the coon comes out, and trap snatches it, and dogs go get it(if he bought them yet)

Reply:He digs holes in the sand along the beach and puts nails in them with aluminum foil at the bottom so the racoon will grab the foil but won't be able to pull its fist out because it is bigger than his hand.
