Placed 20 beaver carcasses on the 31st and yesterday went to look at them and see if any bobcat activity took place. Four carcasses got taken by cougars, two carcasses looked like there may be some civet activity, and seven carcasses had definite bobcat hits.

This guy got turned loose.

One more carcass got a bobcat hit last night so I set it up today and I had one miss. I also reset some of the carcasses that caught cats just in case I get another customer. But no matter what tomorrow I pull and get back to water trapping.

Nice. Do the lions ever mess with your cats?

Set 4 is trying to hide!! Nice pics and good catches.

Have not had that happen yet.

That's a good run! Surprised the coyotes don't wipe out the carcasses before the cats find them.

Only that first cat was in any way impressive. All the rest were kind of small coastal cats with not much to boast about for bellies or backs for that matter.

I think there are more cats than 'yotes in our coast range mountains these days.

How did release go on that little one? Feisty pants…

That’s a heck of a day, Carl. Congratulations!

Carl outstanding job weldone my friend

Awesome!

Heck of a good day no doubt.

That's a great day on the line in my opinion

Yep, he was feisty. Put my heavy winter shirt over him, he settled down for a moment... with just paw and trap exposed. He skedaddled as soon as i compressed the springs.

Can you keep spotted skunks out there?

Yes we can. In fact they're not a protected species here. Can be trapped anytime of year and no limit.

Nice catches

#2 looks none too happy
