Nice work! I have always heard that it couldn’t be done.

I think you are on to something.  How many of the coyotes you have caged had mange or other health issues that might have made them extra desperate?

Only two had health issues the very first one was missing a foot. And one last year had a mangy tail. The rest were healthy. I bait  with a beaver  leg and if they are dried out from hanging in the cage for a few weeks that seems to be when I catch the Coyotes. Coyotes frequently enter cages and trip the doors but the door it’s them on the back because the Trap is too short and they just back out before the door closes. Longer traps could be more successful. But I have caught them in small 16 x 16 42 inch long have a heart and little giant traps

Is this a home made trap, or one that you can purchase?
Thank you.

I want to try this for ADC work!  I have a few larger cage traps.  Tell me more about how you set for them and what bait/lure you would use in the summer (when "old stinky beaver bait" gets completely eaten by maggots in just a couple of days.  How deep in earth do you cover the cage bottom?  Do you brush the trap in heavily? etc.

Actually the first one I got this year was a terrible set up with hardly any cover over trap. Just some long grass. Any bait like duck or chicken carcasses will work. I have just been lucky. I know coyotes enter many cage traps  but are able to back out because the door hits their back. Longer traps are best
