Over a year ago. Saw him in bird feeder on deck, trapped on patio
under deck and took him for a ride.
Little guy's living happily in a state park.
Tried to catch his daddy but he was too big for my trap.

Coon is good eating. A prepared prime pelt has some value.

There is the endemic rabies threat around here. I'm very careful
about handling these critters. Also, at the time, I had a freezer
full of venison.

Should I reposition the security cams ? I'm trying for woodchucks -
the coons and opossums are just mistakes. I don't think they are
bothering anything in the garden / orchard.

I'd shoot the woodchucks. Maybe change the bait to something less
attractive to 'coons and possums, or close the traps at night.

I don't have time to sit and wait for a chuck to come out. I'm using
peanut butter on pieces of apple. The traps are on a property I own
about 6 miles from where I live.

Ditch the peanut butter. Go with plain apples. Even better might
be to add in small pots with lettuce or broccoli plants in them. And
there are commercial attractants for woodchucks that actually help.
