Anyone live trap any critters?
I grew up coon hunting alot, so me and my buddies used to run traps a lot to catch racoons to train younger dogs, and that wound up being a whole new adventure itself!
I've almost always only trapped raccoons and possoms, but I'm running traps tonight foe beaver for the first time.
Being the safety coordinator at my school, I was given the task to control the beavers in a pond on the school property. The pond feeds a small creek, in which the beavers have dammed up and turned about an acre of woods into a swamp. We've had a couple larger trees fall due to the ground being soft, so the director decided its time to do something. Have to use live traps via the schools request. No firearms on campus, and they kindly asked me to not use jaw traps.
So for any of my fellow wayalifers who've trapped before, I'd love to hear your stories, as well as advice.
