They are smart little buggers but we trap anywhere from 6 to 12 of them
every year. But I have no idea how many get away. They tend to frequent the
garden when the corn gets just about ready to pick, and the damn critters go
after the best ears of corn. We have two 'have-a-heart' cage traps that we
set out. They are usually baited with sardines. The traps have two sides
that slam shut when the beast steps on the plate in the middle - you know
the kind. We always close one side off and bait the thing so that the coon
has to cross over the center of the trap to get the bait. We dont really
catch and release, it's more of a catch and dump out, if you know what I
mean.

Got a family of trap wise coons in the garage. They laugh at my best
efforts to trap and release in area where its legal to discharge a
firearm.
Little SOB's are starting to **** me off as the smell rises with the
warmer
weather. Any suggestions?????????????
