Our Trapper

Austin has bought a few animal traps lately and was intent on catching a skunk and a raccon that he thought was in our trash. He is responcible for getting the trash barrels out each week and he has picked up turned over barrels a number of times now and is wanting to catch the culprit. Well, he did catch the skunk, 3 cats, and a possum! This trap doesn't kill the animals so he has to release them somewhere. He was okay with the 3 cats but the skunk was none too happy and sprayed. Daddy took care of the skunk and went out to get rid of the possum and came back in laughing. Here the possum played dead but peaked out of one eye to see if Matt was still there. Matt said his tongue was out of his mouth and his head was laying to one side and his feet were sticking up in the air. He looked dead. When Austin first went towards him the possum was standing up but when he saw Austin, he threw himself down into his "death" position. It was too funny. They let him go. Our trash has been left alone this week so maybe it was all the skunk's doings.
