Rio San Miguel, 13°25'N. Feb. 8,-21- 1926 Raccoon minutes later I knocked one out of a near by tree. No. 11078 was purchased from a native hunter. Nos. 11098, 11099, 11100 and 11101 were shot out of a tree at the edge of a lagoon. On this night we were following a pole fence around a shallow lagoon where thousands of fish little minnows kept the water a continuous movement at the surface where they were gaping for oxygen. As we started to across a barren and dead brush patch to the waters edge I flashed a pair of eyes in a tree at the edge of the lagoon. Another, another, another, and another, pair there from the same tree. And we marched forward to get within range. We killed two Raccoon from the one tree and a Porcupine from a tree near by. One Raccoon jumped into the water and I heard him go splashing through the water of the lagoon. When I had picked up my two specimens from the water under the tree and started back to dry land, I discovered the other two Raccoons in the main fork of the tree where we shot and killed them.
