I agree with haystack in that if I catch a possum in a canine set I almost never catch a canine after that. I dont catch many skunks, but I did catch one in a fox set that had never caught a fox but was in such a great location that I kept it set for several weeks. It was a dirt hole set at a junction of two fire trails and I ended up catching a skunk in it. I dispatched the skunk and reset the same trap (Whew!) and the next evening I had one of the biggest red foxes I have ever caught. I know that most red foxes I catch smell a lot like a skunk, so I am guessing they must eat them regularly. Just curious if you all have experienced the same. (sorry if I am off thread here).
