A week ago I trapped & relocated raccoon #6. Now I've got another critter chowing down at my barn, but I don't know what it is. I set the trap Sunday night, Monday morning, food gone out of the trap, door sprung, but no critter. Re-set the trap Monday night. Tues morning, same thing but not all the food had been eaten.
Tues eve. I set the trap, but pinned the door open so the critter would get "comfortable" going all the way in the trap to get the food. This morning all the food had not been eaten so I know its not a raccoon.
Any ideas on what could eat the food, spring the trap and not get caught? The largest gap in the wire of the trap is about 2 in long and 3/4 of an inch wide. Hoping its not a snake.
