this is not as good as your pic's but it not something you do everyday, many years ago I skinned for some trapper friends, It help pay the bills when I saw going to College.
Insted of shooting skunks we would put them down with a hypo on the end of a 2x2 it worked really well.

Muley, you just take the nock of an animal control pole and that would do the job. the one I use is 3 ft long. I think now I would use a 4 ft for the Yotes. Larry, did you use acetone?

yes, we use acetone, I got a great story from the 1st few try's on gettting the doesage right. Had one wake up as we were getting them out of the back of a pick up with a shell on it. I believe something like 8 stiches to close my buddys head wound.

Troy, I have been looking at my area differently lately...... :)) I need to get out and ask a few of my friends for permission to make a few sets this winter. So far I have 3-4 areas in mind, that should hold some bobcats. On the way over to check our cattle yesterday, I saw a badger....do you think it's possible to catch one of those in a cage trap?

I think you can get one in a cage. I will ask though. I caught my first two last year and was really excited. I'm going to mount them next month when I finish my Mule Deer. Your like me, whenever I travel I'm always looking at the terrain and roadkill ect. If, your looking for cages I think Harbor Freight was selling some Cages that would get you by in the mean time.
