Did you catch it?
Nope but got several raccoons and two opossums. Filed for the depredation permit and once that is done have two more traps both with live bait cages inside and serval horrible lures cat glandular, general predator, and something that is supposed to smell like a stressed out rabbit. I think my problem was I didn't conceal the traps well enough. I have run foot hold type traps before when I was a kid in South Dakota but it has been years, and I have never done much live trapping. That being said I am learning and will get it over time

There's really no need to conceal, just make sure the wire floor is covered, some don't like that feel on their feet.
