So I live on a farm. There are always dozens of deers I see on the property any given day. They have been on my trail camera consistently on the food plot around 6:30 am till about 8 am. Two days ago I witnessed a deer walking up to a raccoon on the plot. That was the first time I’ve ever seen a raccoon out there. Ever since there have been no deers on that trail camera but yet the raccoons have came back last two days. Is this something I can manage or should I hunt a different part now

It's just a coincidence. Deer and Coons coexist with no problems at all. Many trail cam pictures taken over corn piles show lots of coons and deer in there together.

I agree, that or maybe the food plot isn't that great right now and deer moved off to better food source

deer ain't dumb they like prime food
where a coon is more a scavenger and will eat what ever it needs to , to get by!

Affirming what was said. The racoons in no way scared off the deer.

They're buddies. No worries.

Racoons and deer have coexisted longer than the US has been around. I wouldn't worry about it.
