In this part of the country den trees are usually hollow oaks. Sometimes there will be another type of hollow tree and on rare occasion a hole in the ground or under a rock.

Our coon also mostly den in big hollow oaks , you can sometimes squall them out by squalling and beating on the tree .

What I've noticed is it depends on what point the weather is at.It seems like when its the rainy season they pick a layed down tree to live in with no openings on top just the sides.When its not wet out they seem to like the trees that are still live.One that they could climb up and go down into.JMO
