what is it?

It's a squirrel trap with a younger raccoon in it.
The trap is maybe only 3 inches tall! Silly coon.

Thought it was a tight fit. Once caught two young ones in one setting. Off to set squirrel trap. Will have to get a smaller one I'm afraid but the larger one has trapped them before. Saw an idea about smearing peanut butter on the trip plate. Here goes.

We made a pumpkin pie it's in the oven along with my favorite, dough strips with cinnamon sugar.

I once caught a baby coon and someone in the family didn't know I'd seen it and let it go. NOT a very good day. The poop hit the fan. Ended up the little racoon came back and brought it's mom and they both got caught in the trap. (May I say that I greatly dislike having to dispatch predators. I don't like it one bit and had an especially hard time with this pair)

In the end it worked out ok...but let's say no one has ever touched my traps again. This happened right after that specific family of coons broke the walk in door to the shop and made a very quick meal of my beautiful SS Hamburg chicks that were in quarantine.

i did look in the skunks mouth...I still have to look at my pics again...but the first thing that struck me is that the teeth wouldn't line up with the marks on the roosters. Skunks teeth are too wide wet. I think.
