                I think all folks of a certain age think of that song every time they see a roadkill skunk “well you got your dead cat and your dead dog, on a moonlit night you got your dead toad frog”

                    It's February. Mating season for skunks. Coyotes too.

                      We saw a bunch of dead ones in the roads between Springtown & Bluff Dale on Saturday. I told my wife that it must be the polecat rut.

                              Box trap like havahart. Tractor supply probably has them.
