Caged A Skunk

[Wolfdog91 7,427]

I made a post Ali hike back about some cage traps I made with horse panel. Well put them out yesterday and endes go with this delighted Lil fellow this morning lol !

As you see he was able to pull a lot if trash into the trap with him and make himself comfortable! So much so even after a took the door off he refused to leave lol. So just left the door off and I guess he'll figure out how to get t out eventually. Really happy with my cages and happier I didn't get sprayed!

I'll bet the stink when they kick off, ferrets are bad enough when their peeved.

I met a UK skunk breeder once and he had the dried gland from one in a specimen jar ,and even that stank like hell. But its not only their spray .They can bite hard as well.

I've noticed on the wildlife docs on tv, that you have to be a very skinny predator to eat a skunk, dead or alive.

Well actually I barely smell it any more lol ! A lot of the lure here use skunk quill in some from or another as a carrier. If you smelled some of the long distance call lures we have over here a lot of y'all might puke lol ! Not uncommon for people to be called up by the cops because the drug dog went crazy over a package of lures and bait.

actually if you dispatch them properly they don't spray. I think a laugh shot will put them down without a spray. As for the smell a combo of hydrogen peroxide and dish soap will get the smell out .
