When a civet sprays it is a really powerful draw..........................to more civets.

 

So funny.  When I was a kid, I no-joke stepped on a civet when I was going to check traps.  There was a little bitty one in my cage trap and I STEPPED on another one that was in the brush     I was about ten and I started hollering and puking and the one in the trap starting stinking it up too.  Never again   

If you don't believe me, I understand.  My folks still don't.  They say I was messing with a skunk

When you get a bobcat on a beaver carcass do you remove the carcass and replace it with a baited cage trap, move the rest of the carcass into the cage trap or what? I had a cat feeding on a large beaver carcass at the end of last season and I tied the carcass in the back of the cage.  The cat wouldn't go in the cage after that.  Not sure what I would have been better off to do.  I never used to prebait, but I see the advantages; I just need to get the technique down.

 I wait until the cat has been feeding for at least three days, put a leg in the trap and remove remaining carcass. But as you are about to see, I'm still learning as well!      Stupid cats!

You think he triggered it from the side?

I think he bumped it when he tried to squeeze his fat but into the opening, tripping the door. I may need to put a bigger trap there soon. He looks pretty big!
