Was unsuccessful getting the skunk out today. MCAS’ live trap was too small so we tried lowering a cat carrier down. Apparently the skunk has dug itself a den in the dirt and crawled into it to hide. Will need to acquire a live trap and come back tomorrow.

Currently stuck in traffic but heading to meet deputy fire chief, county animal control services and hopefully we can brainstorm away to get this skunk out of his hole. Anyone have a drop?
