Where was this? Pinon/Weed area? Gila Winderness area? Somewhere around the Sandia (I would assume range?) in New Mexico. |

Just from looking at the pic I could tell that he would have been gone given enough time.

That thing could have very easily eaten you had it gotten out of the trap with you around. Are there any measures that you can take to prevent catching one in the future? |

Dry predator sets are pretty universal. There are ways to keep dogs out of cat sets but the other way around is difficult. |

Might as well stir the pot.
I HATE trapping. HORRIBLE thing. Inhumane. Etc. No wonder the cat's pissed-off. Hunting = humane. Trapping = NOT. Flame away... |

Very cool. I might get into trapping as a hobby once I separate from the military and have a little more time to invest.

I wonder if it shook its foot when it walked away, like when you put Scotch Tape booties on housecats.

That's an awesome picture. Do you have anymore from you cuz?

I was between Two Harbors and Ely MN in Oct and saw one cat print on a logging road slightly bigger than a softball and about shit my pants. DNR says those kittys are not in the area...................................yeah right!
Fast forward to Dec. a hunter 25 miles NW of Duluth MN. shot a deer and tracked for a period of time before locating it with not one but two Cougars consuming his deer. DNR said it had been 75 years since two have been seen together in the area. Wait, I thought they were not even "in the area." Glock 20 with spare mag now with me at all times for "nature walks." |

OK.
Now we have a cougar. A pitbull shouldn't be too hard to find. Let's settle the question !!! |

My "trapping experience" means squat to this conversation. But I grew up with a trapper as a best friend. He mostly trapped beaver and muskrat. I hate the practice. I recognize its value during "frontier times". Not so much now. It's a very slow and cruel death for those animals unfortunate enough to get caught. Argue or flame me all you want. I really don't care. If your family pet died in such a manner, odds are you'd be pretty upset. People around here get up in arms when a dog is shot for cryin' out loud. Imagine if that dog tried to chew it's own leg off to get out of a trap. |

If I missed the answer I am sorry but how did he get the trap off? I accidentally had a small dog in a trap one time and that was no fun. I can't imagine

Imagine if that dog tried to chew it's own leg off to get out of a trap. Most traps used today are simply hold traps, don't break bones and only break the skin when the animal is going apeshit. I have personally walked up on trapped animals that were asleep and comfortable (my ex-brother in law was a big trapper, not me). I had a coyote trap spring on my hand and it scared the shit out of me, but did not hurt me other than some sore fingers for a day. Normally death is very swift as depending on the method of dispatch, it is hard to miss from five feet away. |

And what, exactly, are the facts of the situation? They way I see it, the facts are as follows: there's now an animal running around hurt, and if the DNR guy said it was already suspected of attacking someone, do you think it's going to be more or less likely to do it again now that it's injured? |
