What would you do if you caught a monkey on the trapline? Will there be any chance in South Carolina?

1983, I caught a monkey in gray fox set, south east of Indepence, Mo. Belonged to couple, who let it escape, and thought it was gone for ever. Had no idea, it was around. There mean nasty, strong, very quick. Took myself ,and another guy to get it out of foot hold. When we got through the agent showed up and took it. Drive up on a monkey, is about the craziiest, encounter I've had , on the cat, fox yote line. It was cold as all get out that morning, and monkey, was lucky, it snowed very heavy that afternoon. Doubted it would have survived.

I think there was a kids book about that.

I think ,I might take the phone a warden option on that one.

cause while it definitely isn't on the protected list nor the game animal list it would technically fall under any other species not listed the zoo might want it back.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Cool story.

Special shout out to anyone who also immediately thought about the Chappelle stand up bit on this subject.

You could make a leather jacket out of their hide-not much sewing,maybe just trim the sleeves.

I might be a pot stirrer but what’s the difference between a gray fox set and a red fox set? The only thing I can think of is der ain’t no red fox around.
