Here's a couple of cool still shots taken from the video above.




And here's a picture of us relaxing after all the action.

Now that was cool! What kind of training is involved with this? Do you have to boxtrap them so the mink learns what it's after or does it just naturally do it? Thanks for sharing.

Muskrats are one of the favorite foods of mink, tat is why mink are often caught in muskrat sets. As far as training them to hunt for a person instead of themselves, I haven't a clue, it wouldn't be legal in my state it is trapping only for muskrats. It sure is a different way to take fur.

Keep your videos coming, as I love watching them!
EDIT: I had time to go back and watch another video on youtube and I can't believe that someone opened the cages and took them last month. I hope the sucker who did that gets what he deserves either here on earth or when it's time to meet the big guy above!
