Last night the trap next to the cat food caught a possum. Yes, it did play dead when I went to look at it. But once I picked up the cage to put it into the truck, it moved like there was no tomorrow. Which, actually, it might have been afraid was true. But alas, I took him down some back roads and released him to which he quickly climbed up a tree and hid.
The following is a list of critters that have been caught in traps on the ranch since I have been here. I will update this list as we catch more. Given that we have caught 3 animals in the past 10 days, I expect that there will be more.
- Porcupines: 1
- Raccoons: 1
- Wild Cats: 2
- Possums: 1
