I'm not going to swear this is true, but it's what I've been told and *believe* to be true.

A land owner may trap raccoons if they are a nuisance, however once trapped there are only two options. The land owner may kill the raccoon or release it elsewhere on his property. I believe that it is prohibited to transport said raccoon to another location and release it, thereby making it 'someone else's problem'.

The document referenced below has some good information. Note the statement near the end which reads"
Landowners wishing to live-trap raccoons and relocate them after they have been caught must notify representatives of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.

So, perhaps it is permissible to relocate raccoons under certain circumstances, but I don't know what TP&W would have to say on the subject.
