I didn't realize it had been twisted sideways when I put it through and all I had to do to get out was turn my head sideways again. Didn't happen - until the firemen were called and they worked me through it.

You drill a big ol' hole in a log and put a bit of something shiney at the bottom. You then drive nails in at a particular angle so that the coon can reach in to grab the shiney metal bit, but can't get his whole fist out. Apparently the racoon won't drop the shiney object and thus, dies from the elements/starvation/the hunter because he is stuck.Trucker Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07005600926268006716noreply@blogger.com
