I'm not an animal rights guy or anything but, to all those people leaving comments suggesting he shoots them, WHY?? Why not just release them? There is no good reason to shoot a trapped animal, especially if your not going to eat it or something.
@11mac11s Trust me, you DON'T want a raccoon around. These are highly destructive pests which carry roundworm and rabies, and they are known to attack pet cats, dogs, and even humans.
Either take your caught raccoon at least 25 miles away (so it won't return) into the woods and let it go, or just give it a quick gunshot to the head.
@VirginiaZinenkoo Any animal is capable of being vicous. Raccoons are quite playful and affectionate. Of course if you don't know how to treat an animal, wild or not, it will nasty.
catching and release wild animals is actually the most responsible thing to do with you time local wildlife. make a trap squirrels and birds can get out of and release the others. it traumatizes them to stay away from people.
@4321Hunter1234 That Bible verse is for HUMANS ONLY!!! You don't exactly have to show mercy to a disease-carrying, worms and rabies-infested dirty animal like a raccoon!!
i hope you released them in a remote area, or they'll likely become some one else's trash eaters. i live in michigan, and here, it's illegal to transport and release trapped possums and raccoons. in michigan all trapped raccoons and possums must be euthanized, by law :/
the state of michigan has approved two methods for euthanizing trapped animals, the gas chamber, or a single well placed bullet to the head :(
@leon89460 That's sad, but I can see how they could become a pest. They don't get into my garbage and I didn't want to separate it from its mother so I just tipped the cage over and let it run out.
@Va11e The only problem is that they'll stay in your neighborhood and continue to be a nusiance for one of your neighbors.
Next time, use a Hav-A-Heart trap. That way, if you catch any young raccoons, you can leave them in there and you'll catch their mother when she goes into the trap to free her young--and the door shuts. Then either take them at least 25 miles away (so they won't return) and release them, or shoot them.
@leon89460 I'm glad I don't live in Michigan. I do wildlife rehab in California and fish and game says we have to release them within a 3 mile radius from where they were found!
@SuePrim1 I don't really like Michigan either. It's beautiful country, but has inhumane laws and no jobs. Thank you for you for being involved in the wildlife rehab service, at least some one is looking out for the animals.
@leon89460 That's ridiculous! Who really owns a gas chamber, and why does the US still let anyone own a gun? Saying that all countries have stupid laws!
I said 'anyone'. In the UK you can get a gun licence but it's difficult to get (this is a good thing because we don't want loads of random armed people walking around our streets).
So cute i just caught a baby possum in my backyard hes 1 week old and is adorable, he has teeth but this morning my Parents are taking him to the wild life shelter i miss him :|
next time, just shoot it. coons are a great nuisance, overpopulated, and are the number one predator of wild turkeys (they catch the baby turkeys that can't fly to escape).
Hey, can you make a video of an animal as it's actually springing the trap? I'm not entirely sure from this how it works. I'd like to see it in action! And as long as you don't hurt the critters you catch and are letting them go I think this is really cool! Just be sure not to catch a skunk! LOL I did that once by accident!
hi, if you're trying to trap cats, you should look into TNR, Trap, Neuter, Return which is the humane way to deal with strays. You'll also get help with trapping, etc. The Humane Society should have more info or go on line.
Actually I was trying to catch stray cats to send to the humane society. If you feel the need to be righteous about animal abuse then go do something useful about it instead of mindlessly flaming youtube videos.
I just came in the garage through the door connected to the house... the problem with dog was that he was getting into our garbage, etc and he would also run away when I caught him doing it... we told the owners what their dog was doing... but they didn't care.... so I trapped the dog in the garage by baiting it with garbage which was connected to the place where you put the cheez on the rat trap.... long story - short.. the dog went to the pound... haven't had any troubles with it since....
hey nice catch, those rat traps are great trigger mechanics for all kinds of cage traps.... once I caught a stray dog using my garage as the cage... the rat trap was set up the same you have it, except it pulled a hinged stick out from under the garage door which was then held closed with bungee chords.
That little racoon was very cute and didn't seem scared; I guess it's attributed to it being young and exploring. Good thing you released it. Please don't kill anything, mmmkay?
i need to learn how to make one too i wonder if i have any chicken wire just layin around ..... i got screens i could put on tho u think that would work?? i was thinking of using some kind of pin pull trap with a pin, string, some screens and wood but not exactly sure how id make it all work help plz
bRO could you teach how to make that trap? or an easy trap? Cause I've got a couple of Possums in my backyard and really have no way of getting rid of them (I have pansy neighbors) And lethal traps are no choice. So I def. need to get them AWAY from my house because they seem to have spread fleas all around my house which are no on my dog. PLEASE help.
We have raised many batches of raccoons before,but my sister got him from a friend because his mother got shot and he was only a week old,so since weve raised raccoons before we took care of him.He recently left but hes such a big baby still he only lives about 80 feet away from our house,even though hes full grown.
wow thats awesome! i am going to make a trap just like yours because there are WAY too many fucking raccoons around and in my big yard and they harass my cats and eat all the food and also fight each other and im tired of it! i am going to call animal control once i catch them so they can relocate them FAR away from my home!
I never said it was funny. Besides, I wasn't trying to catch raccoons, the trap was for feral cats that were eating the cat food and harassing my domestic cats.
