I wasn't able to view this entire video due to buffering issues - not your fault ... just wondering if you released the coon?

@MyFreedomChannel

Yes, I did. Thanks for watching.

You did the right thing, any decent trapper would check traps daily. Whomever set that one was not a responsible trapper. Great Video.

id have to agree with scprepper some sorta bird "house" or something, also good decision no sense in letting it die in the trap which leads to another point i know in some states any sorta trap you set you need to have a metal tag like a dog tag with your name and number on it, why idk maybe if fish and game find it or to make sure u don't abandon the traps so anyone who finds it can let you know.

maybe the suspended tree logs are to atract honey bees or bird lfe.cant think of any other

@scprepper55

Interesting. Thanks. I dont what they are.

I think he was thanking you also :)

I personally would not have released the coon and feel my conscience would be clear of any moral obligation. I just feel it's not my business messing with another man's trap. JMHO.

@jconnalyjr

I agree and I thought about that, however I was not going to let him stay in there and die either. If I would have seen signs of humans possibly coming soon to retrieve him, then I would have left him. Its just one of those moral/ethical delimas I suppose.

@charper3006

Fair enough. It's one of those situations to where the totality of the situation dictates.
