I'm back on the stinky subject of skunks!
When a skunk starts prowling in search of a chicken dinner, E. sets a trap called a have-a-heart trap. He baits it with some tuna or a few chicken eggs in the evening, and, usually, the very next morning finds the marauder caged and ready for transport to a new home.
This guy was interesting because he had spent his jail time raking dirt into the trap to make a cozy home for himself. Then he was reluctant leave. Brave E. gave him a prod with a little stick... then he was going..............
over the rock and down the draw... quickly disappearing from sight.
He had an exceptionally pretty tail!
