I've got one hanging around. Looks like a squirrel on steroids. Got a

Anyone have any experience with these critters?

TIA


To date I've caught 3 possums and 3 raccoons in a borrowed Hav A Hart
trap. No Woodchucks/Groundhogs.


Close your trap at night. Groundhogs are diurnal. In my experience, the
peak time for trapping them is somewhere between 4 and 5 pm.
