While sitting outside last night, before the moon was up, I
started hearing noises and turned on the flashlight to find
the cutest group of four little skunks I've ever seen. You
know they have virtually no fear of humans until you get
excited and stand up cursing. I got out the "Have a Heart"
trap, put some canned dog food inside and half hoped to
catch them and half hoped I didn't. The trap was empty
this morning.


Aw, the little guys are just trying to make a living in difficult times.

Me? I'd put out the dog food without a trap.


They showed a lady on tv news who did that with raccoons and she
woulnt stop, after a year she had 40 or so at her pool every night
eating a few big bags of dog food, she didnt want to stop because she
was afraid they would starve and said she couldnt afford to pay her
other bills.
