No, you misunderstood. He's going to get skunked during deer season.

No, you guys don't get it. He's already been skunked, it's impossible to get skunked during deer season now. The bad skunk ju ju is gone for this year. LOL...

Skunk stank is THE BEST deer hunting cover scent........you have an endless " fresh supply " right there for free!! Easy application too, just dress in your hunting clothes and kick the cage, or you could experiment w ways to bottle it yourself to apply in the field or start a new cover scents business

Maybe one of those celebrity women who have their own perfume brand may like to use some in their product?

Here is last night's recent release from Polecat Prison More interested in putting real estate between the trap and the new home as it scurried off into the field and then the wood line.

Stubborn little thing........ the trap was wide open for almost 10 minutes before it decided to leave and I was not doing much to encourage the departure except removing the cover from the trap.

Thanks for the laugh this morning! The kids want me to put out a trap for some local bunnys but seeing this I'm now having second thoughts.

My tyranosaurus ex used to put dinner scraps beneath the backyard bird feeder so she could watch the raccoons come and eat.

One night I watched out the kitchen window as a skunk dined on the scraps. About six feet away was a huge raccoon watching and waiting his turn. It was obvious that the skunk could take his time and wouldn't be molested. But the unbelievable part was that I saw this skunk look over at the coon and feint toward it, like a boxer feints a punch. The coon actually flinched - jumped backward a few inches. And if I weren't sure that it had actually happened, he did it again with the same result. The skunk was toying with the coon...!

If I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have believed it! But I did, and I do!

I remember when I was a kid in Pennsylvania, a family found a litter of very young skunks living under a storage shed. They reportedly had them "deodorized" somehow and raised them as pets.

Actually, for quite some time, skunk musk was used in women's perfumes. The nature of it caused the more pleasant scents to have more staying power. I can't say about perfumes today, but.........

I also hear that if you cover the trap before capture, then one can carefully walk up, pick it up and transport it without incident. 'Course, that means it's a bit harder to identify what got captured.
