Actually 3 screwups in a row. First I ran over my live trap pretty much destroying it then I bought a Havahart from the local farm supply to replace it. Caught an Armadillo last night that was digging up the yard. When I tried to get him out of the trap I discovered the Havahart without a back door was not worth buying. No way to hold the door open with an Armadillo sitting on the release plate, how do you get the durn thing out. Went to the shop and made an S hook to hold the door open while I coaxed the critter out. I'm either going to add a back door or throw it away and get one from Harbor Freight that has the door.
3rd screw up was after I got the Armadillo out of the trap. I didn't want to shoot him in the trap so waited till he was clear. .22 pistol, missed his head and only wounded him, the jerk ran back into the trap, door closes and my S hook flies off not to be found. Finally got him out of the trap the second time, another shot another head miss, he starts running, a 3rd shot on the run makes him spin around but doesn't stop him. He runs under a building I have my office in. So now he will die under the office and stink.
Lessons learned. Get better trap and use a bigger gun.
