City skunks

Just run up behind 'em and give 'em a good kick in the a$$!!:p Skunks are the ugliest creatures! 12 ga. works wonders!
 
LOL. I worked for a provincial "hook and bullet" division for a while. We'd get calls to pick up wounded crows, baby squirrels, trapped coons, broken winged herons etc. Unless the animal was actually rare or endangered, we would smile and gently take it away and then whack it with a brush axe once it was out of sight and out of mind.

Just kill the damned things. It's not like you've been invaded by pandas or whooping cranes.

i feel sorry for whoever i catch drowning animals. the humane society, cops, and newspapers sure would have some fun with ya;) im not one of those green peace fruits, but i always ensure animals suffer as little as possible. if you're going to kill em, do it quickly with a bullet.

its our fault we have critters in "our" yards so the least we can do is relocate or end it quickly.

flame suit on:rolleyes:

I agree, if the animal has already been caught in a live trap, why drown it? Shoot it or relocate, drowning is a mean way of killing any animal, even the stinky ones.
 
Stick him with an arrow either crossbow or compound when I lived in the city I sniped a muskrat and a couple coons that tried living in the yard.

knew a fellow who did the same thing to his neighbours cat under pernission from police and animal rights people as the owner was negligent and he had to use a feild point or they would have considerd it "hunting" it was urinating on bis bbq and deck apparently
 
I've heard that a small bowl of anti-freeze will take care of them... Never tried it though. Apparently they will drink it up because of it's sweet taste. Probably works on stay cats too :evil:

Your best best if you can't shoot them is to trap them and relocate them off the end of a dock somewhere (while still in the trap).
 
Blanket/Live trap suggestion was probably the best, or call a professional if you are willing to pay and let them handle the stink and disposal.
Would not leave out open dish of poison.
 
I'd say the live trap idea is the best 'borrow it from the SPCA when you get the skunk , phone them and let them deal with it.

Get a 45 gallon metal drum and fill it half full of water, put a large wheel cover over the top and put cat food on the wheel cover. make sure there is stuff beside the 45 gallon drum the skunk can climb on to get up. Skunk goes on up to get the food,wheel cover gives out skunk falls in and drowns cause he can't climb out.
