Yeah, I made a special shield like device, throw a blanket over closed end then use a pole hook to release from trap. I’ve caught and released probably six or seven skunks and haven’t been tagged yet. LOL. At the same time, the skunk smell isn’t that repugnant to me for some reason.
You know when I was looking at 4 year schools many years ago that isn't one that was normally discussed, visited Humboldt for a few days, rained the whole time, men outnumbered women or at least it appeared that way, and no men's swim team, I was a springboard diver. Needless to say it got nixed.
How did they confirm it was a lion and not a more typical predator like a coyote? If so, P30 probably. Bounded populations (that is native to a habitat with significant barriers to emigration) pose real stresses on large cats. Those LA cats are well studied (and it's a little depressing). Here is a good take on a couple individuals. Here is the site supporting the NPS regional study.
Kind of like bears here in GA, it's more people moving into the animals hood than the other way around.
I got shot once, was horrible, lol. If you ever get bit by skunk, dont panic, wash out bite under brutally hot water for 10 minutes....stay to plan and release animal, then get a bite to eat, then go to ER and tell them u bit by skunk. At that point, skunk safe, and you safe <3 you will get a few tetinus-like shots, no biggie, i have had them (for coyote bite), tetinus-like/normal shots, not hurt, then you good to go <3 Skunk bite very rare
Such an awesome dude!! Private Joker: How can you shoot women and children? Door Gunner: Easy... you don't lead 'em so much. Door Gunner: Ain't war hell?

Thats sad.. I truely believe any animal can become comfortable in new enviroments,if pushed to exist that way. I've watched squirrels chase people in parks,deer in my neighborhood walk on sidewalks,and eat plants right off peoples front porches late at night when Im driving home. Coyotes are another example,they are opportunist,as are black bear in my area.Why forage for hrs for little,when you can get fed off a human thats in your back yard. The american bald eagle,they happily feed off dead animals in the wild,just like vultures do. Its no surprise big cats go after riders.
