Law Dog OP trapper Joined: Dec 2010 Central, SD	Kid south of me is a very good trapper and hard worker so he texted me and asks if I want a skunk in a cage but it’s 30 miles away so I kick it around a bit and decide I’ll go get it. Asked him want he needed for supplies he said bobcat bait so we made a deal for 2 frozen chickens he said perfect. Tuned out to be a 12# one with good wide stripes but they have a slight beige tint in places that’s a shame but it’s still worth a lot. Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

But I thought they only had two sacs, are there multiple pods in each sac? I had 7 sets of pods total 6 that I thawed Ed out since I was tapping the ones from today. Just 2 per skunk. $20 per ounce Last edited by Law Dog; 12/22/23 09:53 PM. Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that! Jerry Herbst

And perhaps if you know of a bait maker you can sell the meat or carcass too. I love catching skunks!! Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.
