    Is he sure it's the same one? If so, he's dealing with an extremely dumb skunk and there's no cure for that except one.. Tell him the next time to dig a big hole, shoot the skunk, throw the trap and the skunk in the hole and bury them.

    That's a good answer. Probably cuts down on their workload too. They're busy people. :rolleyes:

    Anyone who has conducted much live trapping in skunk territory should know to keep a 50 foot length of rope attached tobthe trap and strung out up wind. If the trapper then finds a skunk in the trap he can grab the end of the rope amd start walking toward the irrigation canal, ditch, creek, or river.

    Got the a/c fixed just in time. Had to crimp 5 wires, up under the dash.While she complained it wasn’t fixed already!! Wife went to her sisters, Jeep loaded with junk for her garage sale.The stress level just dropped around here by 100%. Its hot and humid. I think the grass needs cutting. I’ve aggravated the neighbors enough. Yesterday’s highlight was a trip to Harbor Freight. Couple new 30’ tape measures, 40 big zip ties. 10 pk of electrical tape, shrink connectors. $40 buys a lot of miscellaneous. What a deal.

    That works too. If nobody sees you. It's a little conspicuous though, walking along with a fifty foot rope and a trap rattling along behind you. I like the burying idea.

    You have to whistle while you're doing it. Don't you know that? :D

    If someone sees, then you invite them to go open the trap and release the skunk themselves.

    Good. I'm sure that will make you feel better. We all know that no LEO would ever construct a reply that was self serving and cast his agency in a good light. Right?
