I have trapped in Catron County,N.M. for 6 of the last 8 seasons and this past season was the first season that I had coatimundi incidental catches,more than I desired,though I had seen them in bands before in that area,occasionally. In my opinion,the big fires in the last two summers,the Wallow Fire to the west in Arizona and the Whitewater Baldy Fire last year in the Gila,have concentrated them more towards the north and east in N.M. I even caught them in the dead of winter,it seems they do not hibernate as much as coons do,in that area. They were attracted to any fresh meat bait set that I made and they liked my bobcat scent post sets with gland lure and urine. They are very hardy and can be easily caught and held in any #2 size or larger coil spring trap,with little to no damage to their feet. I think they would be hard on a lesser cage trap,they are strong with large canine teeth and can be a challenge to release with a catch pole,be careful. After being caught once,they will avoid your sets,most times,so try to make the first time count. I find that most other furbearers will avoid contact with and areas that the coatimundi frequent,especially the bobcats and grey fox. Good luck,hope you catch them all and be careful where you relocate them,they are truly a nuisance and they are protected in N.M.
