I have released some due to not being prime. I have used a pole, but like a 5 gal bucket better. Stick the bucket over them, pull out the trap while holding the bucket down with your knee and release the foot. They will want to stay at the catch site most the time. If you press them they will charge, mostly a bluff or false charge from what I have seen. I would rather release them then a large boar coon. They arn't that hard to deal with.

Here is another live one in a 220 duke, trail set.
I have had problems with skunks in 220s too but the 160 turned em off like a switch usully never pulling their head out of the box but the 220 seem to big for em also the coon arealways dead in my 160 and 220s

220 is too big for a skunk. IMO. What you need is a 110-160 with a 220 spring on it!

Yes sir, I was at the time, get a few calls each year to do so, my exam is expired this year, so headed in to retake my test to renew my adc permit for this year. Usually they call and badgers are really tearing up there terraces, or they are in stuble fields with cattle on them. Had a farmer with a couple cows broke legs in there dens.

1st badger I ever got was up near Breckinridge, Mn.
So they're around. Especially on the N.D. border!

Does anyone have a picture of a body grip set for badger? And by that I mean, after the trap is placed, but BEFORE the badger gets caught?

Gosh I wish I could keep the ones I catch here in WI.


Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine!
