Great story! My own experience with a marten that returned to life is nothing to compare. (I caught and dispatched him quickly.)

Ha ha, great story Jack. Reminds me of some of my airboat adventures, but yours are more exciting! When you write it, I want one too!

Good story. Having trouble with the knuckle knock on the nose. You actually kill them with a blow to the nose with your knuckle? I've probably knocked a couple hundred marten on the nose in my serious trapping past. Wasn't with my knuckle and it was only to stun. The dispatch involved another procedure. I may have had one come back to life but not in a plane. Used to do the airplane trapping in the little mud drainage of the Nowitna and over into Boney Cr. which drained into the Yukon.

martentrapper -

white17 did indeed nail it. I was concerned about the "dispatch" taboo on this forum. There is an additional step, quite "humane", in my dispatch SOP...
