Default Live trapping racoons

I have about 5-6 good size coons on my trail camera every night come in and eat all my corn and apples. I just put 2 traps out to catch them. I would like to skin them out and tan the pelts. What would be the easiest humane way to kill them. I have a .22 where should I shoot them to not mess the fur up to bad?

make sure no rocks are behind your shot. Shoot just above the eyes...a great bait is peanut butter in a marshmellow!!!
